In the World of Warcraft expansion "The War Within," delves have become a popular feature, offering short, engaging adventures that reward powerful gear and collectibles. One of the intriguing delves you’ll encounter is The Sinkhole, located in central Hallowfall, east of Mereldar. Among its challenges is the "Illusory Rescue," where players must differentiate between real captives and illusions.
Successfully identifying and rescuing captives grants valuable rewards and contributes to the completion of the delve, enhancing your gear and collectible acquisition. Failing to distinguish between captives and illusions can lead to wasted efforts and potential setbacks during your adventure.
How to Identify Captives
The easiest and most reliable way to distinguish a captive from an illusion in The Sinkhole is by observing their heads. Real captives will have a bubble around their head. This distinct visual cue is your primary indicator of authenticity.
