@Raynes - no, there is only 1 entrance to the oasis itself. All of the caves around it are basically dead-ends, maybe apart from the one with the suspiciously-blocked rear corridor. I'm fairly sure that one leads upwards, to a place *nobody* has been before, even in beta :)

On the Fyros map, you'll see Outlaw Canyon and Scorched Corridor. If you look at the Scorched Corridor area, you'll notice an 'island' in the middle of the canyon - it's a big area of rocky cliffs as high as the canyon wall itself, and it runs East-West. The Oasis entrance is towards the west of this island, on the south side. The routes are fairly tricky, I think regardless of the one you choose. Kipesta, Kirosta, Kipucka, Varinx, and maybe some of their friends :)

If I remember correctly, the 'place I couldn't reach' is at the western tip of the central island - standing close by you should be able to see mobs on the radar between 125M and 250M. There are no mobs in the oasis, nor in the caves found dotted around the central island, but there are certainly mobs on the radar :)

It's a shame the place is blocked up atm, but hopefully we get a nice bit of storyline and an event to open it back up. It's a very tranquil place, in the middle of dangerous territory. And of course there's the mystery of the strange machine... :)

Have fun!

*cries at being in the team that got there, killed the guards, and found the blockage staying put* :(
As for event related things, someone in our team (who is convinced there will be a major updated with new lands/race in about 40days) thinks that those caves are sure to be something very special in the future ;)

No one else found your gap. This leads me to beleive that you are one of those people that likes to torment others for fun.

Actually pre-patch2 me and several from my guild went dow there, and yes, there was a gap in the middle of the rocks. An illusion.

Mind you, that may have since changed as that was at least a month ago that we went down there.
