Equipment manager exploit (Useful for fury warriors)

[dragonfurylol]

Hi all, after having been a leecher for quite a while, until just now I stumbled upon a little exploit that used to be around during TBC.

With the release of the featured ingame Equipment manager developed by blizzard came along a nice little comeback of the old exploit where warriors used to be able to switch to 1h + shield then pop shield wall equip 2handers back without losing the shieldwall dmg reduction buff.

Just now during a heroic I noticed both shieldwall AND shieldblock buff remained on me when I used both skills and swapped back to my 2x 2hander using the Equipment manager. (AND shieldwall DOES keep reducing damage after having popped shieldwall with 2x2handers equipped! Tested it myself)

All you have to do is make a profile in your pvp gear + your 2x 2handers; put it on your bars and hotkey it so after u pop your defensive cooldowns during battlegrounds or various other random things you can instantly press it to switch to your 2handers without losing the buff and continue nuking like **** without hesitation.

Proof this is legit:

And heres the screenshot of me taking 60% less damage with shieldwall active while dual wielding 2handers: http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/7720/after2n.jpg

This might work for other classes apart from warriors, alas I do not possess any interesting other classes to try this out on.

I hope this will be useful for the fellow warriors out there,

God speed!

It has nothing to do with Equipment manager. It's the talent "Titan's Grip".
Works with spell reflect as well, just pop it and switch to your 2x 2handers.
Can't believe you didn't test this before claiming it was Equipment manager..

nice find, works fine!

Uhm, you can do this without using equipment manager

I myself think this isnt a exploit since ( if i remember correctly ) this could always be done.
