a way to avoid pulling

[skythex]

hi guys, today i found out a strange thing. i'm doing sethek halls nearly everyday for the mount and as me playing priest i have to kill some trash.
so i tried out to avoid them by jumping through. it doesnt worked everytime and so i was a little bit confused.
then i found out: if you left+rightclick to walk and also press W (or whatever key you move forward with) and keep it pressed while jumping, you dont pull.
ive tried it out a lot of times, with just W+jump or left+rightclick jump, doesnt work. with both movement buttons pressed while jumping, you can avoid pulling, dont ask me why.
maybe this can help some people who are farming sethek halls (or maybe other instances) everyday. btw, sorry for my english.

Im sorry, but this is confusing as all hell to read..I understand english isn't your first language but can somebody clarify?

what im reading is he is moving past the mobs spamming his jump button while holding both mouse buttons and W, and this is somehow causing him to not pull.

something about this doesnt seem valid. i dont have time to test before raid, but i can look into it afterward.

can you provide some proof of this Skythex?

[skythex]

dont spam jump button, just one jump through the npcs who are standing near together. and while this jump you have to press W+mousewalk at the same time.
i know it sounds weird, but i tried it out very often and worked everytime. dont know how to proof it and i know the whole thing doesnt make any sense but yah.. it works. i think you have to try it yourself

you able to use fraps skythex?

Doesn't work, did Sethekk HC with my toon and couldn't get through the mobs.
Maybe you had just luck, because you can get through them by jumping right in the middle between them, thats correct and i knew that before, but it doesn't work better with mouse-walking.

Just two thoughts on this topic:
1) The jump may work as in PVP, where you jump to get some distance when a CC hits you like sap or Frostnova. So technically you are still somewhere else for the mobs until you land.
2) I sometimes see that lowlevel mobs pass through me without aggroing. It seems that aggro is not checked continually but only every other second or so.

How is pressing both mouse buttons (causes you to run) and your run button (W) necessary to do? They are doing the same thing.

It's just timing more than anything. Pressing w and mousebuttons together will not do anything different than normal. :\
