Rated BG bug: Make players switch teams

[Masked700]

I was running rated bg's tonight and found out if you mind control a druid in tree form, when they break the mind control, they will be on your team.

This means they will lose a player and their player will be friendly on your team. Making the match 11 v 9. They will still rez at a normal graveyard with the opposing team and stay on your team even after death. Nothing will break this and you will be able to continue the game with their team down one player.

Screenshots to prove it.

Too bad I just screenshotted it.

I'll need to try this out tomorrow.

Ok, so either this is a very real exploit as the night elf is playing for Horde, or because in RBGs it can be faction vs faction... it's actually just the ally vs ally with one team playing as Horde from the start and there is no exploit. I mean, from your lower picture I really can't tell which race you are.

Also, it seems to me that in the first picture I still only count 10 players, not 11, so not sure what you are trying to show.

All I am saying is that this COULD be a very epic thing here... and I'll have to wait til tomorrow to test... BUT, I am not really seeing it completely in these SS. So, I would like some verification on this one first.

Then I will love you forever if it is true! lol

Stop requesting elite when you are not a donator or contributer..

You can see in screenshot he's human paladin (player hp frame above action bars).

[Haxmonkey00]

So it has to be a same faction match and you have to mind control the shapeshifted target? does it work in all RBGs?

[Sklug]

You can see in screenshot he's human paladin (player hp frame above action bars).

Ok, then all this means is he is playing Alliance vs Alliance... how do these screenshots mean anything to prove this? I still want someone to confirm cause he is using a SS saying look the NE druid is friendly... how do we know he didn't just start on their team? I still don't see any proof yet and I am holding out judgement until I see this...

RBGs for my team start up in about 2 hours on Horde so I will let you guys know

Look at his buffs. He's got the "Horde"-buff. Horde and Alliance buff are what you get when you play against the same faction and start at opposing side. Your flags become horde even tho you're a gnome or whatever, your names in bg-stats turn red and such. This is not any proof towards it being an exploit, tho IF it works, it'd be pretty epic.

Thing is I do about 10 rbg's a day, and been alliance quite a few times (even tho i'm a tauren) and since i'm elemental i'm in LM or Flagspot (eots) quite often together with a priest that can MC. Have seen loads of people been MC'd so far, and been MC'd myself a few times, but have never experienced this, so highly doubting it.

You cannot queue with people from other servers; This is an Exploit.
I can't vouch for the method, but we'll see.

Well ya that's the point, the SS do NOT show that he is queing together from separate servers. Where in the SS does it show which server he is from? For all we know the OP is ALSO from Ner'zhoul and he is playing on the same team as this druid from the start... it's just an ally vs ally match where one ally team plays as Horde and has horde colors and such...

Look, I am not confirming this doesn't work, I am only saying that the OP did not post any pictures that this is actually legit. I mean, he posted the first picture showing the druid was on his team now... but if you count it's still only 10 players lol...

All I am saying is this is fishy and until someone can confirm or refute this testing I am keeping a skeptical mind, more so than ever since his SS do not prove anything other than it is an Ally vs Ally setup lol

[tiptopz]

The screenshot shows "Spiritedaway-Ner'Zhul" with no druid colored icon on the map with the exception of at lumbermill, but if you look closely you can see a small square (memory error) of game icons just about where the tooltip anchor could/would be.

Flaming a topic without confirming or denying it yourself is bad practice because people will become disinterested in testing it themselves.
