Wow! You´re a font of hidden knowledge!
Could you please tell us how to get there too?

But I can only partially take the credit. I have been trying to catalogue all the unique locations on every shard for quite a few years now. I ran up and down every American shard and found quite a few spots but there are so many that are impossible to know of unless the locals tell you about it. So I had held a little contest 3 years ago I think asking people to submit a unique location on their own shard and the person with the coolest one won some gold. So I made up a webpage for each shard and ran a xshard event based on those locations. But I've been too busy lately to update those pages because there are tons more new locations that have been added over time. The plan was (and still is!!) to use the list the Devs had requested from us not all that long ago to update the pages.
For now though, here's how to get to these places:
On
Catskills, go to the coordinates 110o 33'S 7o 10'E in Felucca. In a cave along the mountain range near Destard. You must stand on the white pentagram inside and speak the word "
frostflame " to be able to enter the secret lab.
On
Sonoma, go to the coordinates 14o 51’N 23o 16’E in Trammel and you will see a red moongate with an inscribed deed on the ground next to it. Go through the gate and it will take you to the hidden room in the
Hedgemaze (Felucca). Beware of the spawn in that room!! Stand in front of the Flaming Head and say the word "
Vengeance" and you will be teleported inside the hidden lair. To get out of there, you will have to speak the word "
Revenge" which will take you right back to that Hedgemaze room so be ready to run from a spawn gank
On
Chesapeake, again a white pentagram, same location as on Catskills (110o 33'S 7o 10'E in Felucca in Destard mountain range). Stand on the pentagram and say the word "
Wintersoul".
On
Siege Perilous, you can only access that platform by boat. As boats are super expensive there, unless you have a buddy to take you on a ride, you might be sol :/ If you somehow manage to purchase a boat, be VERY careful not to have a hidden thief hijack it right under your nose the minute you plop it on the water
. The platform is located North of Buc's Den at coordinates 37o 10'S 118o 58'E.
On a side there, there is another hidden room on Siege. If you go inside Trinsic Townhall your will see some sort of rocky formation with stairs going down. It will take you to an underground lair full of Fire Elementals and Earth Elementals.
On
Napa Valley, go to coordinates 55o 48’N 149o 59’W in Trammel (the Lycaeum) and you will see a hole in the ground surrounded by scaffoldings. Just drop in the hole to enter the area.
On
Europa, this one isn't overly hidden, just more of a "enter at your own risk" kind of deal. Go to Fire Dungeon (Felucca) and as soon as you step inside, you will see a door on the cave wall in front of you. Go in, follow the path and it will take you to what looks like a pretty big pirates lair.
On
Baja, (that page is REALLY NOT up to date!), there is a huge underground area with boats. I dont remember how to get there, I'll run around later today to find it. Same with another room where EM Vincent had held someone prisoner in some jail. I seem to recall that you can access that jail area by clearing the moongate maze in Moonglow.
There are however these hidden areas I know how to get to. Go to the 3rd level of Covetous Dungeon in Trammel. In a small room north-west of the corridor with the ruined portrait (before the throne room), you will find an ankh. Say the name "
Khane Sehtu" to the ank and you will be teleported to the
Maze entrance. To reach Khane's lair, you can either take the shortcut (say the word "
stix" to the wooden pannel at the entrance of the maze) or you can try to solve the riddle by answering the riddles found in the books inside the various rooms of maze. The solution is the word "
ermifa ge" (no space between fa and ge but the filter is being a pain -_- ) that you must speak to the door on the north corner of the maze which takes you inside
Khane's House. The door on the west side of the maze goes nowhere.
You can get to the
Gate of the Abyss by speaking the word "
Vas An Lor" to the golden large crystal at the top of the Daemon Temple (Trammel). The gates lead nowhere so dont try to get to the other side
. You can either recall out or say the same word to the Gatekeeper to be taken back to the Temple.
Last, but not least, you can get to a
Sacrificial Altar by speaking the word "
mohrg" to the Essence of Sin (a black cloud) floating atop the pyre inside the marble building on Marble Island (Felucca). This is NOT the marble building with the stairs leading down to the passage to T2A, it's the other building to the West. You will see the path by the water leading to the floating platform. Beware of the natural spawn in the area, but more importantly of the high end undead special spawn just north of the altar. The altar itself is safe. The event linked to this altar never took place as the EM program was cancelled right before it. There is no natural way out of that area (that I know of) so once there, you will need to help stuck out as this is located in T2A Fel.
Enjoy!
