▬ Mount Runs in 10 Seconds

[Zemsta]

I just made 3 clears with my monk then it got locked inside after my 4th run suddenly. I did all the same clears seemingly. So you don't have to switch characters probably.

you have to kill Rivendare with another Ability - Howling blast and Icy touch didn't work for me (maybe an enchant procc) - Death&Decay got me locked

I can confirm this, switching chars ist not necessary (don't know if it improves the odds of getting "locked" though).
I always kill him with Fireblast (Mage), so even this doesn't really seem to be the deciding factor.

Lets hope this randomness makes it harder for Blizzard to determine the cause and fix it

Can confirm - US.

If you're using a DK, you can also just hit the Boss with Death and Decay,

[Jrxz]

Can confirm- EU, got Baron's Charger 10 minutes ago after 46th attempt


Gonna try Stonecore now

[CreeperDeath]

Got my mount in 5 minutes... thanks ! (+rep must spread etc)

[Hyperbeist]

Okey, so update: Tried it on my DK, Druid and Warlock. I didnt get locked in there once. And I walked and pulled exactly what you did (was copying your every move with your video on my 2nd monitor) still got teleported to the outside after reset inside Proving Grounds.
I will try a few more characters with different abilities.
(This was on EU realm - horde)

Update2: Same happend on my warrior, tried 2 times with both bladestorm and shockwave. Still wont get locked in...

Update3: I see some people say "You have to melee hit him for this to work", didnt work out on my rogue when I did either...

[Ashoran]

Okay, I've done this with three characters(two warriors and a hunter) and I can confirm it works, well for Rivendare's Deathcharger at least... Pretty much followed all of the steps at first, but I kept right clicking the last boss and it would never lock me in, but after using Arcane Shot on my hunter and Charge on my Warriors, I've had a 100% rate of getting the thing to work, and I've gotten my mount as well... So just don't use right click for killing him and I'm pretty sure it will work for you.. Cheers

[Hyperbeist]

I will try what Ashoran said on my warrior aswell.

update1: Charged boss, looted, tp'd into proving grounds, reset, tp back out, outside again No luck for me. #givenup

[liffe]

cant get it to work have try with 4 char now and just get tped outside the dungeon

[ch0pzer]

Have anyone managed to get this to work anywhere else that strat? Would be interesting to know. I have quite a few places in mind, but it don't seem to work now way the same

hmm seems like you're missing two steps there... try this order: Charge boss, loot, tp into proving grounds, tp out of dungeon, go back into the dungeon you're farming, tp to proving grounds, reset, tp back out(at this point you should be at the boss again).

Sadly it didn't work for me anywhere else than strat, I've tried doing Stonecore like 10 times...

It's clearly not about the type of the attack which kills the boss.

I was doing this all day long and I got my toons locked inside with BOTH melee autoattacks and spells from range. For example, I got my 2nd DK locked in by killing the endboss of stratholme with a single melee hit. Also, chain-farmed today with 3 monks. I used the monk's PBAoE spell (forgot the name) to clear zigurats but ONLY a single melee hit for the endboss. It works every time for my monks.
However, when I try to melee with my Warrior, it usually fails (and sometimes still works), so it has nothing to do with the type of attack (autoattack / special). For my priests, I use a MB for last boss. Both melee and spell works!

I noticed however, I can't get this exploit to work on particular realms. For example, some german servers seems to be immune to this bug. I just got the same monk there and I can't get him to locked in even if I try it for hours. There are some English realms too, where the rate of being locked is much much lower than for same toons on other realms. I'm not sure but this may be something related to realm population or more precisely, something related to the instance's utilization.

In other words this bug may be related to the instance server's actual stress, actual amount of crowding rather than spell vs. melee argument. Where less people use the actual server that provides Stratholme I have clearly lower chance to get this work. At least this is my observation.

Still works perfectly for me (Malfurion EU) - rogue, Hemorrhage. The realm I do it on is low pop, so I doubt that this matters. Interesting idea, tho.

Edit: tried it on a different realm (Blackmoore EU - high pop), didn't work the first time - priest, Mind Sear.
Second try it worked - auto attacks.
