argent vanguard shield exploit!

[mettyman]

hi, i found a little cool exploit today when i was doing dailies at the newly introduced argent vangaurd place in icecrown. you know those three cool looking shields you can use on yourself when you are riding an argent tournament mount? red, yellow and green shields. heres a trick to keep those shields on your character forever. you can go anywhere you want while having the shield on until you logout and login again. heres how to do it!

1. mount an argent tournament mount.
2. ride inside as shown on the picture until you are about to get auto dismounted, when that happens you use the "defend" ability.
3. if you time it right, you will apply the shield to your character as soon as he/she gets off the mount and you will be able to run around with the shield anywhere. (you can stack the "defend" ability couple of times depending on the color you want for your shield.)





Here are some different shots of me with different characters to show that i am not bullshitting you!



Have fun with it aslong as it lasts!



edit: the shield holds forever if you time it right!

Well it does stop when you port / instance. You only want to Dalaran. Works in Northrend though.

i figured out how to do this. Run in the tent as soon as you get in, stop running. This will auto boot you from the mount. so now you will know exactly when to press the shield(4).
just stop running and press 4 at the same time. Thanks for the cool idea.

[Nikkien]

or actually just hold down the 4 button and release it as soon as you stop running in

Works, holding down 4 and releasing while stopping as suggested above worked best for me.
