Underwater Fishing location

[chumpy]

After a long time of leecher status, enjoying Fishing bot releases and not contributing, I finally have a self-discovered exploit worth sharing!

At this location in Wintergrasp, which was formerly known for its ability to fish into Wintergrasp waters without being flagged, there is another exploit under the water!

Under this rock outcropping illustrated with pictures, you can STAND on the bottom of the water. In addition to that, you can stand there while breathing, and you can fish "up" to the surface. As you can see from the image, there is a missing water tile, so you can jump down into the bottom of the lake.

Benefits this allows are near-invisible fishing to other players, not to mention a mining node also spawns at this location allowing for possible dual scripting of mining & fishing at the same time!

Pictures indicate that this is not only client-side, showing another player I had confirm and stand and fish with me. Minimap location, West, South, East views shown.

I hope this is helpful, and that this tile is missing on all servers for all to enjoy and abuse!

::UPDATE:: Confirmed on multiple servers.

::UPDATE 2:: EDIT for Clarification. The spot is on the Dragonblight/Wintergrasp border near the Wind Elementals on the south edge of the lower water perimeter. This is SOUTH of the Southeast Workshop. Hope this helps =)

Ah, I did searches on fishing & wintergrasp, "mount under water" seems somewhat obscure. Thanks for the heads up, I hope my mentioning of fishing from underwater from this location is sufficiently noteworthy for a new thread.

thanks!

For sure. It's definitely no repost.

Also another problem i foresee... the saronite ore next to you = people flying down on top of you bad for botting

+rep from me

unless you're botting both yourself! or non-botting.

Also its very cool to "jump" forward into water and get suspended while treading water.

lol thats pretty funny.

many thanks for the responses & rep!

I've been manually fishing & mining here just to test how often I encounter other people, and haven't seen a single miner. My guess is that since most miner/herbers look solely with their tracking, they're blind to you under the water

That's very cool :-) thanks!
