this qeust is bugged, if you pick up a NPC at the speed of 350% and fly away really fast you will DC when you log back in you will be stuck in a falling forever state while still able to walk around, if you are out of VOW you will stop seeing NPC’s at all and be stuck in a empty world, only thing you can do is hearthstone.
somethimes the game lets you die if you toch certain terrain, then you will be stuck dead unable to speak to the spirit healer because you are out of VOW.
