Alt Buffing

[Matt]

Found a new use for \N

Thought of it while driving to work, and I just tried it. I have a level 60 rogue who has a bag full of the Winterspring Eko buffs, and a bunch of lower level toons who could use them while grinding, or my Mage or Priests buffs.

Move all your alts to the same location and log on with the one you want buffed, but make sure its a high enough level to recieve the buff. Open the chat and type \n. This will instantly boot you from the server. (make sure you type \n and not /n.)

Now that you are booted, you have 30 seconds or so to log back on with the alt casting the buff. You will see both your alts standing next to eachother. At this point you have about 15 seconds left to buff the first alt, and/or its pet. Once the first alt disapears, you can log back on normally and you are now buffed.

The only down side is that some buffs don't last if you log off. Not sure which ones are which, so you may have to play with it yourself.

there's no such thing as \n..

it was(i think it got patched) a bug that would disconnect you from the server once you pressed enter.

Fishing buddy can disconnect you if you link the fish from the /FB command of that addon because it would show up as [Oil Blackmouth 14.6%] or something like that

um.. why did you bumb this? its so old. \n was fixed but you can dissconnect by using /sit /stand a bunch to Disconnect, or just unplug you connection

A friend of mine and I did this a while ago, we get the alt then Alt+F4 and log in with our mains to buff and I am even able to portal my alts around!

If you want to log in on your main quickly from your alt, just open another WoW and log in on your main. This will DC your Alt and makes it easy for switching back and forth. (just restore the other wow and log back onto your alt)
