It seems lessons have been learned from our servercrashes when
everyone piled into Blasted Lands, should be a bit better spread out
for you US people:


"Khadgar has cast Mirror Image and some of you have probably already
noticed a few additional versions of his NPC around Azeroth. He's
there to help you get to Draenor once the expansion goes live!

We've had some time to evaluate the overwhelmingly positive response
to Warlords of Draenor as it went live for European players, and
realized getting you through the Dark Portal in an efficient manner is
important. When the switch from Mists of Pandaria to Warlords takes
place at 12:00 a.m. PST, you will automatically receive a quest titled
"The Dark Portal" that will direct you to visit Khadgar in the Blasted
Lands. However, now that we have four more Khadgars added to the
world, you can go to one them as well!

Here are Khadgar's locations:

Stormwind - next to the Hero's Call Board in the Trade District
Orgrimmar - next to the Warchief's Command Board in the Valley of
Strength
Shrine of Seven Stars (Alliance) - in front of the main entrance
Shrine of Two Moons (Horde) - in front of the main entrance
Note: if you happen to not receive the initial quest that leads you to
Draenor, have no fear! Just find your closest Khadgar and he'll lead
the way."



Now, if they could just find some way to stop Draenor lagging like
hell, that'd be even better. Interestingly they have phasing within
zones, some areas are fine, others are locked up completely, ofc the
lagged out bits are the ones containing the quest bottleneck I really
need to complete. So I gave up and went exploring, didn't get a lot of
exp but some is better than zero. World server down (again) now, maybe
it'll be less laggy when it's back...
