Cover BG Flags (Preventing Cap, Causing Confusion)

[greengoo]

Easy squeasy:

1. Get item: Stormwind Banner (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=45011) or the horde equiv

2. Line it up *just* in front of a BG flag and cast

3. If aligned properly this will cause the flag to be 100% unclickable from that side. This is because the item flag is larger than the other. Additionally, it will look almost EXACTLY like the BG flag, causing frustration and confusion for the other side.

4. ...

5. Profit


The thing that really makes this awesome is once you learn how to line it up perfectly. I watched a horde sit there for 5-10 seconds in AB tonight confused as hell why he couldn't cap

Cool, i'm actually gonna try this one

In addition, when you cap the flag it despawns for a moment, if you use that time to get INSIDE the flagpole you could cover it completely, making the enemy have to wait 3 min to click the flag, enough time for you to call your posse to wtfpwn them

Equinoxx? Could you post a pic(s) of how to do that? I find it a little unclear how that flag is gonna cover the whole thing

The trick is to place the flag when the *real* flag is despawned, other wise it would go on TOP of it, rather than over it.

Well i got it to work, quite funny

[Planetdune]

couldn't it work to use 2 of those to fully "cover" a flag as to make it non clickable at either side ?

Nice find, may be useful for others +Rep

Nice, but isn't this just common sense, I mean really, this is so obvious.

(Yes, I am just joking, nice find! Thought I'd be funny and poke fun at the forum)
