While the ability to teleport here has an hour cooldown, the fact that this is ten minutes is really nice for people like me who level alone and take it slowly. It really is a fully-featured little camp—like the other comments here say, you get REST mode in and around the tent for changing talents and instantly logging out*, the real campfire works for cooking, AND you can talk to the little backpack on the ground to get rid of the big Flintstones canopy on your racial mount. As far as positioning it, it spawns with the tent behind you with you standing right in the middle of the camp (entrance to the tent), and it physically disappears after exactly five minutes, lining up with your camping buff—but it wouldn't be much good if you could only teleport back within five minutes, would it? :B You can log out and your teleport will still take you back to the same spot a week later. It stays good until you place it somewhere else. —And, of course, the teleport re-summons your camp (buffs and all) and plays a little caravan cutscene when you land!

*No, you do not get overnight rest like at an inn. Maybe drop a suggestion through the in-game HELP menu!

{Original asterisk: *Currently checking if you get the full rest gain while logged out. I'd assume it works like the previous player tents—but wouldn't you know it, I don't actually remember if those give rest overnight.}

DOUBLE EDIT: it occurs to me that, while leveling, the shorter cooldown on Make Camp probably implies that the expected behavior is to
• Cast Make Camp
• Hearthstone to a real rest area
• Log out
• Log in later
• Return to Camp and get right back to questin'
...though I'd still much rather have a real rest zone. We're nomads, dangit!

TRIPLE EDIT: are you a grumpy weirdo like me who thinks using random dungeons to level is a grind and you feel less bored doing quests? If you're still POWER LEVELING you're probably in War Mode! Luckily, with this, you can play roles/hang out with your other friends easily and painlessly. Drop the tent, boom—a rest zone! Turn off War Mode, then when you're done, Teleport or Hearthstone back to Orgrimmar, turn War Mode back on, and then head back to camp. Not counting the time you spent piddling around doing fun social stuff, only 25 seconds downtime!

ULTIMATE QUAD EDIT: you can delete your tent by canceling the buff. Also, using the teleport when it disappears and the fact Make Camp will be off cooldown by the time that's up, you can have FIFTEEN MINUTES of camp 3D model uptime for playin' roles or other cuteness!

Ladies and gentlemen, this is Edit Number Five: obviously anyone interested enough to visit this page already has their mind racing with interesting use cases for this set of spells, but just to inspire you a little bit more, here's what I did (now that I'm done with it and don't care about competition). I always wanted that sicknasty PvP heirloom, but I am a weenie. Set my camp to the Gurubashi Arena and a timer on my phone, BOOM. Teleported there in War Mode before the big bads showed up and looted it on my level 40-70 Vulpera (took a few days to finish!). But wait, what's this? After looting it in War Mode, I'd run back to my tent, turn off War Mode, and LOOT IT AGAIN. Getting the trinket at all is nice, but getting it twice as fast? Mm-mm! Your mileage may vary, obviously this is going to be easier on a low-pop realm, right? I did it with no fighting whatsoever every time I went, but I'm only on Wyrmrest Accord. Easy peasy! Good luck, and share any other cool/fun ideas for cheesing the game with this ability <3

The camp location does appear to be is permanent until you make a new camp location.

At first I was worried it was not as I logged out and came back a couple hours later and my camp was gone. However, using Return to Camp after doing some more questing returned me to my last camp location and made the tent, pack, and campfire reappear.

The camp is only visible for a short while, but you can rest assured your camp acts as a bonus outdoor hearth of your choice!

Some ideas for use include setting your camp in a location you intend to farm, especially those out of the way. Like to farm old content? Pitch your tent in a convenient place and run through it at the beginning or end of your play session.
