The northern coast of Orr was once a verdant breadbasket for the kingdom. Now it is dominated by the minions of the Elder Dragon Zhaitan.

— In-game description

Malchor's Leap is the northwestern portion of the Ruins of Orr. It contains the temples of Lyssa and Dwayna, being littered with statues to the two gods imbued with magic. The name of the area refers to the story of Malchor, a sculptor who committed suicide by jumping off a cliff after Dwayna left for Arah.

Multiple parts of this area have stacked upper and lower levels; this is particularly apparent around the elevated Cathedral of Eternal Radiance, which can make navigation confusing.

Getting there

• From Straits of Devastation: The portal is southwest of  Sentry Waypoint — in Sentry Steppes.
• From Cursed Shore: The portal is at  Pursuit Pass Waypoint — in Pursuit Pass.

Tyrian Explorers Society Taking a Stand at Malchor's Leap Salutations, The Durmand Pirory, Vigil, and Order of Whispers have long reported on their daily struggles getting their troops across the harsh territory of Malchor's Leap. However, they recently sent word on your time in that area. [sic]They tell us that you rose to this challenge, blazing your own trails to the undead lurking there. It seems that you have helped solve many of those troop-transport challenges. Due to the historical significance of Orr, we at the Tyrian Explorers Society look upon your recent exploits with admiration and envy. You are truly an inspiration to your peers. —Tyrian Explorers Society
