I've put a lot of hours into the game and never encountered that problem. And no one else on this newsgroup has posted indicating that they ran into a dead end. Considering the number of times the same basic questions get asked on this newsgroup - i.e. how do you kill the Butcher? etc. if there really were areas which you could only reach by teleporting, this newsgroup would be overflowing with complaints and questions every time someone got lost. Frankly, it would have been a poor design decision for Blizzard to have put in dead ends like you speak of. peace, Desslock
