Doing the Azshara quest "Ice Cold" in a matter of seconds.

[Syluxx]

Sheesh, it seems I just cannot do Loremaster without finding atleast 1-2 exploits per zone.. Oh well.

First off, get the quest obviously - then find a Sable Drake and throw it in a Freezing Trap (Other CC probably works aswell)
Then just spam the ice beam, you'll get credit for each cast although the NPC doesn't really die from it.
Not that huge, but next time you're in Azshara this might save you a few minutes+frustration.

Here's a video of the exploit in action:

A exploit means you benefit from a bug, while you do benefit for this in the sake of just questing faster it's pretty much useless sorry no rep

All exploits are welcome here, and even though this is a minor exploit, it is still an exploit. I for one are probably gonna use it if I ever come across that quest, and because of that, I'm +repping him.
You might not find it useful, and you might not use this exploit, ever. But your comment is pretty useless yourself. Would be like, if I said "Hey - just FYI, not giving you rep... trololol.."

It's not useless if you gain an advantage from it, and since most people will likely do this the proper way and use more time, i'd see this as a way to get ahead of the other players.

This isn't "USELESS". Some people WILL find this useful. Also, an exploit is a bug being abused.

An Exploit is a bug being abused. It has absolutely nothing to do with being beneficial. From time to time, they are beneficial, however an Exploit does not need to be beneficial for it to be considered an exploit.


@Opening Post -- I used this exploit after you posted it. I DID find it useful as it did save me some time.

[Darknz]

The definition of exploit is to employ to ones greatest advantage. The greatest advantage here is saving 1minute question and that is consider USELESS in every single aspect of the word useless. An exploit is not just simply a bug being abuse, a bug being abuse is called a bug abuse. Now when that bug is used for something as lets say you could do this quest over and over so you keep getting xp from it now thats a exploit thats worth being posted so stop butthurting and suck it up that you know this is useless

[Phantons]

No. If you want to get technical, the definition of an exploit is a heroic act.

[Darknz]

No if you wanna get technical thats when it's used as a noun, The way we intent to use the exploits on the forums here is to how i said gain the most possible greatest advantage thus making exploit used in it's verb form.

[Nyarly]

Nice find, not a very hard quest but this is definitively an exploit.
I remember doing this quest and it was really painful to target the drake and click on the item fast enough so the drake wouldn't go out of range. This should help everybody who's doing the quest.

+rep for you !
