I'm on a Boat achiv Exploit

[zelghadis]

With this exploit you can easily do I'm on a Boat Achievment.
Theres a spot on enemy boat (for Horde - don't know 'bout ally though) where boss cannot reach you. The group that is going to kill mage jumps on the enemy's boat, kill him, then using your rocket packs you all should jump up to spot shown on the picture below, and simply wait for next mage to spawn. Repeat until you're done. Remember to jump back to your own ship when enemy's ship is going to be destroyed - if you will remain there you won't get achievment.

Short version:
1. Attack team jump on other boat to kill mage.
2. Instead of jumping back they jump into specific spot in front of boat.
3. When mage is back, jump down, kill him.
4. Repeat until enemy boat is going to go down.
5. Jump back on your boat.
6. PROFIT!

did this actually work for you after you jumped onto the boat and jump whilst on the boat?
i was lined up to do this achievement the other day, but someone was pissing about with the pack on the enemy ship which ****ed it up.
if thats not a factor, then epic <3
will test asap..
(yay, time to pug icc on an alt)

Well I don't know if the bug concerning On a Boat is fixed yet(not this one) as when you previously used the jetpack more then once on the enemy boat( so you're already there and you use it to slow down the enemy boss) the achievment would get bugged and it wouldn't be granted, if that has been fixed,
Nice contribution, and I'll +rep you when confirmed

Ok, so here goes some answers for your questions (sorry for keeping you waiting - i had to get some sleep ;P).

Sorry for my bad english - I just woke up and my brain haven't started working properly yet xD

Confirmation screenshot for getting achievment:


@sorrows & @ rdr1994: Yes you can jump on enemy ship as mch as you like. Generally it's advised strategy for tank tanking the boss to jump from one side of the ship to another kiting him. You just have to remember to jump back to your ship before enemy ship goes down. When we tried this last wweek and someone stayed on enemy ship none of us got achievment. Still I don't know which side you play. I can assure it working for Horde only, have no confirmation about Alliance. So if anybody could confirm I would be greatfull.

thanks for the link, I guess the bug has been fixed then because when I tanked it (we stayed on boss all the time) I used the rocketpack on boss all the time to slow his attacks. our raid did the achievment the normal way but for some reason we didn't get it, later it turned out this was the problem, nice find mate +3 for you

I will try if i am able to do this as alliance.

easiest way to do this achievment is to bug the boss so it only atacks you from range, then just spam taunt from the tank, your entire team can then stay on the boat and kill everythign, as he doesnt do as much dmg this way

[zelghadis]

@Siler: if you mean this bug with taunting him in midair it's not working any longer.
