How do I get to the island? You can fly from southeast Jade Forest and you'll make it to the island before fatigue runs out. Horde camp is to the north, Alliance camp is to the south. Chromie will also point you to the island in the introductory quest A Flash of Bronze....

Can I fly on the island? No, flying mounts are not allowed on the Timeless Isle (Temporal Anomaly). You'll want your best ground mount, as well as Reins of Poseidus for the aquatic areas and Reins of the Azure Water Strider to reach some far-off shipwrecks. Highwind Albatross is also a convenient taxi that can fly players to areas that are otherwise unreachable.

Is there an inn on the island? Yes, Graceful Swan is the innkeeper on the north side of the Celestial Court.

Where is the mailbox? Hopswift doesn't look like a mailbox, but speaking to him works like a mailbox. He's next to Graceful Swan on the north side of the Celestial Court.

Are there flightpaths? Yes, the Huojin and Tuishi camps on the west coast have flight masters.

Will doing anything here help me in Siege of Orgrimmar? You'll need to do several quests and kill world bosses here for your legendary cape. Besides that, Empowering the Hourglass awards 0 Valor Points, which you'll want for your item upgrades, and if you're just interested in Siege of Orgrimmar, you'll need ilvl 496 gear which just so happens to be the level of the Timeless Isle BoA gear. You can also purchase some ilvl 535 trinkets for 0 Timeless Coin.

There are so many rares and events, how can I tell what's going on? Blizzard has introduced a new feature alerting users to rare spawns and events. The minimap will display a skull if a rare spawn is up, and crossed swords if an event is available to complete.

How can I tell if I've already completed or looted something since it's not straightforward like a quest log? Blizzard tracks a lot of these seemingly random events with "flag" quests, like "Tom" Bone Apart - Tracking Quest for the event tied to Zarhym Altogether. These quests don't show up in your log, but you can type "/run print(IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(xxxxx))" in-game, where xxxx is the quest ID, and the response will show if you've already completed it or not.

The ruined Dread Ship Vazuvius lies to the south of Pi'jiu Village. It's overrun by Cursed Hozen Swabby, who are guarding a treasure chest that contains Cursed Swabby Helmet. They drop the Barnacle Encrusted Key which is needed to open the chest. This is tied to the weekly tracking quest Sunken Hozen Treasure - Tracking Quest.

In the south-east coastal waters, players can help defend a group of spectral pirates led by Captain Zvezdan against undead enemies. If you kill the final boss, Rattleskew, you'll get a special vanity item that summons spectral pirates, Captain Zvezdan's Lost Leg.

Located between the Alliance and Horde bases is Blackguard's Forgotten Cove. These spectral pirates are hostile and closely guard a treasure chest that can be looted once a week (Tracking Quest - Spectral Pirate Treasure) and contain coins and BoA items. After you loot the chests, the Rare Spawn are friendly and stand around the treasure chest cheering.

The Rare Spawn can be farmed for Spectral Grog which creates a spectral pirate disguise. Don't loot Blackguard's Jetsam if you want to farm this item, as the pirates will turn friendly after you do.

Evermaw is a rare spawn that swims around the Timeless Isle very quickly. He drops a Mist-Filled Spirit Lantern, which can be used to summon the Dread Ship Vazuvius at the Cursed Graveyard by the Misty Shore. It summons a ship with 170 million HP and constant cannon-fire. The ship drops Rime of the Time-Lost Mariner, which turns players into pink spectral pirates as well as their mounts.

Stinkbraid spawns on the ship by the shores of the Croaking Hollow. He's surrounded by Southsea Firebrew that buff stats and heal you, as well as Southsea Plunderer.
