Simple exploit Mangy Hyena

[Vanagandar]

Hello, this is just a little exploit (i think :P) that I like to use when doing archaeology (tol'vir areas).
Some places where you dig for tol'vir stuff there are Mangy Hyenas aggroing you and being annoying so if you want them gone without taking the time killing them then do this:

1. Mount flying
2. Aggro Hyena
3. Fly up
4. Hyena despawns when leaving combat.

profit go get your archaeology fragments.

thats not rly an exploit its more of a smart use of game mechanics

As far as I know normal mobs are not supposed to disapear just because u aggro and deaggro them. So not rly smart use of game mechanics imo.

Thank you for the exploit, this is definitely going to help me with archaeology. No doubt about it.
I just confirmed it's working.
Edit: I can't rep you because I get the error message "You must spread some reputation around before giving it to Vanagandar again." Must have repped you for something before.

Rubbish, mobs DONT despawn.....EVER, or at least their not supposed to.

The ONLY time this used to happen was in certain dungeons/raids and even then only certain mobs.

I know for a fact this didnt used to work since ive herbed a lot in ulduar and i do the whole "land, aggro, fly up, de aggro, land, herb while resetting" trick and these mobs didnt despawn.

However i cannot test right now so i cant confirm or deny it, if it DOES work then its DEFINATELY an exploit & deserves rep....

I can confirm this thread. Basically in my best opinion it has to do with the phasing of zones. I tested this in Deepholme - where you had to kill like 15 of those miners. I agro'd too many ran 5 yards out of that area, and they all disappeared. But with the hyenas, i assume it's the same thing, since most of uldum has to do with phasing quests and such
