Midsummer Fire Festival Glitch: Improved

[Hidro]

Stand next to a midsummer festival pole. Start to mount, and while mounting right click the pole a few times. RIGHT as you're about to mount, step to the side. If you did it correctly, your character should be holding their weapon out in some direction. Then just start to hearth/port/whatever to your faction's capital city. When you start to port, you will dismount but keep spinning. And when you enter the city, you will still be spinning. Any questions, just leave a comment. THIS IS SERVER SIDE. NOT CLIENT SIDE. Therefore, everyone can see you.

( In the video I am linked to the pole, but I've realized it seems to work more often for me when I'm NOT linked. But still make sure you are holding your weapon in an awkward position on your mount. )

Benefits:
-Constantly stacks Ribbon Dance buff.
-Rogues do not know where your back is or where you're facing.
-Hard for people to tell when Warriors are Bladestorming them.
-Makes you look like a badass.



Know limitations:
-Cannot go near another pole.
-Cannot port to a different continent ( I.E. Porting to Stonard when in Durotar ruins it ).
-Cannot enter bg, arena, instance, or raid. They are all instanced zones and will end it.

Porting devices that work:
-Hearthstone.
-Portal.
-Teleport.
-Have Group Will Travel (you must be summoned after doing the mount glitch ).
-The Innkeeper's Daughter.
-Lock's Summon ( you must be summoned after doing the mount glitch ).
-Ruby Slippers.

give ideas for me to test, or confirm with videos that you were able to use it. would like to increase the size of this list.

Rayne749 was the first person to show the basis of this glitch (that I saw). But i wondered if I could take it farther. So here's how it works:

If you did it correctly, your character should be holding their weapon out in some direction. Then just start to hearth/port/whatever to your faction's capital city. When you start to port, you will dismount but keep spinning. And when you enter the city, you will still be spinning. I will upload a video and provide a link soon. Any questions, just leave a comment.

Pointless thread. Could have just made a reply to the original thread.

But many people who read just the original post, and that dont watch all the comments on a thread wouldnt have seen it. I know i wouldnt have.

Got throwdowned, hexed, mind controlled, mounted, nothing broke it. Epic bug. +Rep.

Is this client-sided only or can everyone else see this too?

This is NOT client-side. I had multiple people asking me how i was spinning. And a few rogue pissed that they didnt know where my back was.

Very cool! Would be awesome if you could use it in arena thought.

+rep.

P.S.: What is the song?

Edit: Nevermind, I found it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6JeISFaSHc

MonoDan - Electro House dj mixes from Brandenburg/Berlin in Germany

I'm sorry to inform you that you're wrong. I've taught many people from my guild how to do this. And it works with all porting devices (as long as they are porting to the same continent). It MIGHT take a few tries. Today, it took me 10 tries before I got it to work without stopping me spin. I'll try to include a video showing that it is possible with hearth. And be sure to wait a second to she if she starts spinning again. In my video, my mage stops spinning, but then starts up again.

i can vouch it works with hearth lol i did it my 2nd try.

[Falayo]

Definately works. Thank you, looks so amazing with Thunderfury

[mescamikee]

Very nice find!

[skalman555]

this is epic xD everyone is so confused in durotar asking me how i did it x)
+4rep as im having a lot of fun with this

also btw, if u go too close to the pole again, it will stop spinning and you have to do it all over again
