Can someone explain exactly how phasing works?
I know that when you are going through a "special" quest (say a dream sequence) that wouldnt make sense for other players to see or interact with, that they give you a separate instance of that content. Fine.
But are there multiple phases of generic places? For instance, are there multiple phases of Orgrimmar, that they might implement to keep the population down? If so, is it possible that you wont be able to connect with someone else in the same zone?
Is phasing implemented by level? I know I can fly over the old world content, but I never see any low level characters. Is this because they are in a different phase? (Does this solve the problem of ganking lowbies) Or is the world just dead?
I would like to understand how phasing works. If you are out of phase with someone, can you get back in phase by meeting at a common place (city) and then travelling back to your quest zone?
