Working Weapon Skill Exploit

[WickedCitizen]

This is pretty straight-forward and has worked since release but not many people seem to know about it even though it's still one of the best ways to gain weapon skills.

What you need:

-- A Warlock Friend of at least Level 28
-- Your Weapons
-- An Elemental or Demon NPC

You can probably already guess what I'm about to say... all you have to do is Banish (Banish - Spell - World of Warcraft) the NPC over and over while you swing away at the mob. You'll take no damage and you can keep doing it as long as the warlocks mana holds out. (Indefinitely)

In the following screenshot I'm simply banishing Fizzle Darkstorm's Imp (Fizzle Darkstorm - NPC - World of Warcraft)




Hopefully this doesn't require much further explanation. Enjoy!

Hate to say it, but I wouldn't consider this an exploit. There's a much better way than this too, just attack the ogre ghosts around the boss at the end of DM North. They don't attack, move, or die. Equip some weapons, and go afk for a few hours. When I did this I equipped two different weapons, then at some point they broke and I got my unarmed skill up too, all overnight.

But you need a lvl to enter and it requires allot of traveling

While I agree that was a better way, unfortunately you probably haven't been there lately because it was hotfixed with 3.1.

Well not sure is this a exploit but I havent though of this before. +2

I consider this an exploit due to Blizzard making a conscience effort to remove all of these unintended weapon leveling mechanics. So far they've gotten just about everything single-mob. You could argue either way probably. *shrug* If a mod feels this is in the wrong section, feel free to move it!
