Get your pet to attack while stealthed.

[advanta]

There was a post on the official wow bug report forums where someone stated that they could get
their pet to attack whilst remaining camouflaged. They didn't explain the exploit, so I tried to reverse-engineer
it. The steps I use:

1. Feign death with play dead glyph. Immediately accept pop-up port (eg bg, proving grounds).
2. Pet will now still be in feign death mode.
3. Dimiss pet and replace it with another until the feign death buff expires (it will run down even when dismissed).
Go kill stuff for six minutes.
4. Recall original pet as feign death buff is about to expire, go into camouflage as pet is coming out of feign death.
5. You should now be in stealth and your pet can attack anything without bringing you out of camouflage.



With proving grounds you can set up five pets for a potential five minutes of this exploit per bg or whatever.

The exploit is quite powerful. For example, done right it is almost impossible for enemy players to capture flags in
arathi basin and twin peaks. However, the set-up time and the fact camouflage lasts only a minute per pet limits its utility.
I'm posting it partly as I suspect others can develop it further.

Most of my energy is devoted to this major project right now:

You can also do this if you camo off of a flying mount(you need to have flown a bit to make the pet despawn temporarily). The pet will be summoned out of camo and can then be used to attack while the hunter is still camouflaged. This is however not very useful because you can't fly in most pvp zones.

Yeah that was my thinking on that one. Can't think of a way to make that work, though there probably is one. Wd for figuring it out.

I'm fairly certain that the glitchy play dead glyph can be used for a ton of stuff. Some people were using it to get the black temple hydra buff though I think that's been fixed.
