Multiple Basalt Rocklings

[Dsnentry]

Now I know there has been a post on the Basalt Rockling already but I wanted to expand it a bit more. Currently in Azshara there is a NPC named Balboa. He is a large rock giant that when killed drops a item called Basalt Rockling. This item can be used to summon a guarding to fight for you for 20 min. The cool thing is, Blizzard forgot to add the texture to him so he is solid white. Now here is the possible bug/exploit:

There is a quest named Renewable Resource that has you place an arcane bomb thing on the ground for Balboa to walk over. This item seems to summon Balboa or at least reset his spawn time. What I did was found his spawn place, used the item, ran away (for some reason he won't spawn if he are near is spawn point), and then ran back and killed. Repeat this and soon you will have up to 6 guardians as pets for 20min, all stark white.

For those wondering, you can't hearth or port while these guys are out of they will go away. I tried but it doesn't keep you from mounting and running into Org.

Hope you enjoy

Edit: You may be able to have more than 6 out at once as I just found the item in my bag which is why Balboa wasn't dropping them anymore.

This is a repost.

Elaborate more next time. Simply calling "repost" without valid proof, or a method of showing that it is as such, is just a waste of time.

Dsnentry, you should repost this information into the current thread, as this is a way to abuse this trick, rather than a completely separate trick. To make an example, the previously fixed Bug Trio bosses of AQ 40 could each be separately tamed, and were literally invincible due to a mechanic that was applied to the npc you tamed. Now, using two of them with hunter Misdirects and Rogue ToT to tank a boss successfully is a genius way to use this. Does that mean it would warrant its own thread? Maybe, if the glitch that provided the invincible bugs wasn't fully known. However, it is a smart way to abuse what is already provided. A real world equivalent is the wheel and a board. Boards hold things, wheels roll. The men who made these were geniuses, while the man who thought to use both together as a cart was also a genius. Basic building blocks and the ideas that come from them should be considered the same, and placed with each other. Go repost this in the original thread

EDIT: also, if anyone bothers to point out that the invinci-bug hunter pets were posted in elite already, don't even bother. It's fixed because it was so easily reproduced by everyone. Plus, not everyone will donate just to see silly little tricks for several minutes of fun. No offense to the site, but the "elite" section is a rubbish reason to donate. Every glitch fix brings new glitches, use one until a new one is out.
