How to not get caught in AV.

[SockofBadKarma]

Now, I have seen a few threads on wall-climbing in AV before, but none of them were simple, easy to get to, or convenient. I decided, therefore, to show the easiest method of avoiding the afk debuff: walking right off the map.

NOTE: This is for Horde players. I'll attempt to find a simple method for Alliance, but as of right now, I have yet to find a mountain near the Alliance cave that can be reached by less seasoned wall-climbers.

Now, I suggest for this that you have a form of slowfall and/or an immunity bubble, and probably a mount (Rocket Boots Xtreme make it funny).


From the cave, go south to here. You will pass the Frostwolf Collectors in the tent and walk up the ravine behind a large pine tree.


Step 1 of 3 to jump across. Mount up and face that way.


Luckily, if you fall, you won't die, unlike other wall-climbs. Step 2 of 3.


Now you are past the "hard" part. See? I told you this was easy.


Walk straight from those two points. Make sure you angle correctly. If you start to slide, back up, because falling from here WILL kill you.


You can go one of two ways here. The right path takes longer but is safer for people who don't have an immunity.


Get your slowfall ready and jump off here. You should hit the ground before it runs out.


If you have an immunity (and Rocket Boots) you can go flying off the cliff here. It will land you where you should be without having to walk when you land.


Many lines later, you will be right here. If you wish to explore, there are some odd floating trees (as seen), as well as some cliffs that are prevalent in a lot of unmapped areas.


You will notice that you have now gone off the map. Congrats! It will be very hard to notice that you are actually afk now. Note that if you want to get back, you should probably bring a Frostwolf Insignia.







Once again, sorry, Alliance. I never really tried to find a mountain up north. As for Horde, this is a very fast, simple, yet underused method of getting off the map. It should take a grand total of 2-3 minutes to get off the map from the cave.

P.S. I know I have bad latency. It's the bane of being on a college network.

I'm sorry. I did preface that at the beginning. They always just seemed so construed to me that I decided to show an easy way to do it...

Just a hint to all who think they can avoid getting tagged.
Cattleprod automatically checks your effort (healing+dmg) with average effort and determines who is AFK and reports them.

Too bad Alliance almost never win AV after 2.3.0 patch At least not on my server group.

Truth is told within this post. Luckily, few people use Cattleprod enough for it to be effective. I have never once been even reported.

I don't actually afk all the time (I'm a pretty decent pvper, and while I cannot disclose my armory, I'm 2k+).

It's just an opportunity, should people decide to use it. People will afk regardless. At least this way, they aren't seen, so less people get angry.

Oh snap! I got owned with that one...

The search didn't pick it up, I guess... MINE has pretty line diagrams, though, so bleh!

j/k


I've known about this forever, truthfully. Just never felt like saying anything about it -_^ Still, nice for videos, I guess.

Mhmmmm, I use cattleprod always because I PvP to win.

I know there are a few progs that detect afkers based on their healing/dmg. AV healing seems to count bandaging too, so cant you just get your bot to climb up something, drop and take fall dmg and then use a bandage to make it look like you are healing? You can use the bandages u get with all the marks in ur mailbox maybe?

I personally don't agree with afking in bg, but I'm trying to contribute to the site and it's an idea I had so I thought I would share

pretty cool, ill try it out!

Have your AFK bot heal every now and then if your a healing class?
