Unlimited Combat Pets. Winner's exploit.

[NonMagical]

That's right, folks. I've figured out how to get unlimited pets to do your bidding in Pandaland. Solo anything in the game, including the new world bosses. Use at your own risk. This exploit is pretty game breaking.

What you need:
Any kind of character (presumably, though only tested with Rogue) with the quest "Last Toll of the Yaungol", available in Townlong Steppes from the NPC Xiao Tu. (Last Toll of the Yaungol - Quest - World of Warcraft)

And that's really it. Simple, eh?

What you do:
After you pick up the quest, Xiao Tu will start following you around. If you attempt to leave the area "Hatred's Vice", Xiao Tu will despawn. When you re-enter, Xiao Tu will reappear. But! If you enter the zone, then immediately leave it while Xiao Tu is doing his sit up animation, he will follow you out and stay by your side. Upon re-entering, a new Xiao Tu will appear. You now have two of the little fellas following you around inside Hatred's Vice. Should you attempt to leave, the newest Xiao Tu will despawn, but not the other.

So I'm sure you can fill in the blanks here, but I'll spell it out for you. If you continually move between Hatred's Vice and another zone, you can continue to get more and more Xiao Tu's to follow you. They do pretty good damage (15k+ crits).

What can I do with them?:
Good question. For starters, you can go solo the world boss. After charging my army of Xiao Tu's for ~10 minutes, they were able to auto attack the Sha of Anger down 5% of his health in about 30 seconds. He summons adds and mind controls though and I didn't really have much self healing, so I died. And if you die, they all go bye bye. But in theory if you could sustain yourself for longer you could have your adds DPS them. They can hold aggro, as well! Or, you could just charge them up for an hour and then have them go in and blow him up in 30 seconds.

As for what else you can do? Well I haven't tested to see if they will attack the opposing faction (I'm not sure if quest pets like this ever do, though). Edit: Tested PvP in a duel. They DO attack other players. Enjoy 1 shotting people. If they did you could run around 1 shotting people (I was 1 shotting 800k life enemies with my group. And if you tag them you get experience. And you can loot!)

These pets will follow you around all over, including out of the zone Townlong Steppes. Gotta run though, as I assume they despawn if you take a flight path.

Skeptical?:

[Nurideen]

[LuckLuka]

Elite this!

Elite this!

I have it print screened and fully intend on reposting it if it gets moved to elite, It was posted in normal section it should stay in the normal section.

[welshdom]

just a quick fyi once you hand in the quest you loose them all :P

+rep btw

Well, the only reason it is posted to normal is because I don't have the ability to post it in an elite section. This is a pretty damaging exploit if abused, and probably shouldn't be posted in the normal forums.

..thats not how that works. some exploits that are deemed too "worthy" for the leechers are moved for a reason. having said this, Kurios has actually posted a few times for people to stop yelling elite this and elite plzzzz, so watch yourself luckluka. paying your $15 does not entitle you to horde all the exploits to elite that you think are supposed to be there.

good find OP, +rep for you! thanks for contributing!

[VoTuUS]

Haha this is awesome, definately going to try this.. with caution ofc +6

[flang00]

Great exploit, my recommendation would be to use this to farm a high respawn area for fast leveling and drops. Killing a world boss would set off so many alarms that you might as well save yourself time and just call customer service requesting a ban.

[NonMagical]

Just confirmed that it works in regular faction vs faction PvP (previously had just tested duels).

[paranoia69]

Does anyone knows an area, where phasing is active but the npc's don't respawn, so no other players can see u while using this exploit?

[RedPirate]

Is this still working? My guy will won't sit up and just despawn instead

EDIT: It works, I just used the same location as OP, so I guess leaving from that spot works (not sure why)

[Superzozo]

Awesome, very very very nice, thanks a lot
