Achievements involving PvP flag caps [Paladin]

[greengoo]

Small exploit of mechanics, haven't seen it posted before. If it has feel free to degrade me like a 2 cent hooker.



For all BG achievements that involving capping a flag, such as Me and the Cappin' Makin' it Happen - Achievement - World of Warcraft , there is a nice trick for Paladins.

Did that undeserving jerk start capping right next to you, even though YOU fought off the 15 horde (ally) that were holding the flag? Well that flag SHOULD be yours, don't you think?

A simple Hand of Protection will cancel his flag cap, allowing you to eek out one more point for your 50/50 achievement. This is intended in that you aren't allowed to cap while bubbled/HoP'd, but not that you should be able to cancel ANOTHER players cap.

Maybe it's common sense but I doubt anyone did it before ( at least on this thread ).
Nice find anyway, +2rep from me.

[Rohi]

Haha I say it doesnt belong to exploits but I love the tip, +rep

[Akisunmaaji]

Nice tip..I guess. Waste of HoP CD IMO but to each his own.

However you have to understand the basic definition of an exploit: Allowed by game mechanics but likely against the developer's intent.

Developers made it so while immune you can't cap (for obvious reasons) so this is working as intended.
