{Death Knight} Fun little trick for AB!

[reeveerx]

Just thought I'd share this is with you all as I find it quite fun to do over and over and it really pisses people off! Need to be Death Knight for this guys. Although this isn't really an exploit, I didn't know where else to post.

When you are in AB, go to the Lumber Mill and just wait around for the enemy to try and cap, then run to the edge of the hill and jump down but instantly turn around and death grip them off the edge with you. Make sure that after you jump off the ledge, you are not holding any movement keys. I made a macro for this that yells "GET OVER HERE" as I pull them to there doom.

Like I said, kills the victim 9 times out of 10 and is good for a laugh and really pissess people off if you do it a lot to them.

Yea, but you die aswell, so whats the point lol. fair enough if you got knocked off the edge and you pulled someone down with you to your death, but i see no point in perposly killing yourself.

[iceicebaby]

haha thats awesome i want to try that some time.

[Gash]

you cant death grip while moving aka falling down somewhere.. sorry, but i hear the failtrain arriving...

TSCHUUUUUUUT TSCHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT

[reeveerx]

No.. I swear to you... this works in AB. I agree that when you are moving it shouldn't work. But the only way this fails is if you are still pressing direction keys when you fall, then you wont be ablt to cast it. Just stop pressing any keys the second you JUMP off the ledge and turn around and Death grip them. Works a treat. Try and see for yourself

And yes, fair enough, you may have to martyr yourself. But the result is worth it to see the enemy splat at the bottom off the cliff.

Haha, I do this at a regular basis, always laugh my ass off

[reeveerx]

Yup, it works fine.

You can actually death grip while moving
But I find this pretty useless considering you die aswell, its better to get people to chase you off on a rogue/druid or mage.
Mage > Slowfall > Blink back on after you jumped.
Druid > Cat form > Slowfall.
Rogue > Passive Slowfall....

Fun times... xD

Um.... rogues don't have slow fall... neither do druids. They have an ability that makes you take less damage, but I'm pretty sure it's not enough that they don't die jumping off of the LM.

But this is a nice... exploit? Guide?
;P

Have a cookie.

I can jump off the highest spot of the Lumber Mill with full health and survive with 5-10% hp left (if i'm on full hp ofcourse).

But better would be to do the jump in 2 falls, first on the lower platform with the tree, then the ground, then you almost take no fall damage.

Also, I'd consider making my DK an engineer for this.

Jump off LM -> Deathgrip someone, then parachute cloak and /lol at them

Thanks! Not the best thing that has been posted here, but its good

I havn't tested this specifically in AB--but you're not able to death grip mobs to you if you don't have ground underneath you. You can deathgrip while jumping but once you're over a cliff or water, it won't bring the mob/player to you, it will just do the taunt effect.

For example, you can't death grip mobs to you in water, even if you have path of frost on and you're standing on the water. You have to be within like 5 yards of the bottom of the lake/ocean for the pulling effect to work.

So without testing, I would say this will not work, as once you're over the cliff, you're falling and the pulling effect will not trigger on the player you're gripping.

(There was a thread about this on like the second day of the XPac with people confirming you can't death grip players off Hellfire peninsula etc.)

[vertigo7]

Heftydogg, it DOES work in midair, what you have to do is do it JUST as you jump, and the person will fly towards you, and get linked to you for a second, and that's enough to take you both off of the edge.

dont think its rly a xploit

Or a rogue could just ShS back up like a mage blinking back on after jumping.

Also "I made a macro for this that yells "GET OVER HERE" as I pull them to there doom.":

There's an addon for that:
