Lifetapping out of CC

[zutto]

The reason shadow word death works is because the damage done to the priest is calculated shortly after the damage done to the target, allowing it to damage the priest after polymorph lands.

This isnt the case with warlocks. life tap instantly takes away the health on the cast, there is no delay.

actually there is but its alot less than sob or sw:d..

Actually, in all my experiences with WoW there is ALWAYS a delay, this is simply because of everything basically being a spell. even an instant cast has a delay, though it may be significantly smaller than Shadow Word Death.

Im not sure if this method would work, but for holy paladins our bane is generally being cc'd in arenas.

To stop being CC'd as any spec paladin: Seal of Blood judgement on a target as the cc is going off that WON'T absorb, you'll be broken out of it.

Hope it helps.

or you can put sac up on your partner

This was fixed back in like 2.1; you don't take damage, you just lose H.P.

All the exploits with lifetap are pretty much gone.

Doesn't hellfire still count as taking dmg though?

[bradske]

hellfire works for breaking poly etc

[demisehi]

Hellfire works and it isn't exactly instant, there is a delay. Works pretty well for sheep.

If you're very fast as a Pally, this same thing applies with Cleanse.

^This is true, ~1sec delay on swd damage makes it possible, with some awesome lag i could see lifetap working, but too hard to use like swd.

I play WoW on Satellite, so this is very possible for me. Gotta love the 1.2 second delay! >.>
