Not sure if this is really an exploit or anything, but something I found helpfull as I am leveling my alt. I wanted to get the good mage water, but never finding a mage in a good enough mood to share with me, I joined an AV match. As soon as a mage drops a table, Right click quickly and you can pick up 400-500 of the best food / water, and you will be farming quickly for the rest of the day, with much less downtime. If a mage does not drop a table, I found just asking please in a AV will usually be all it takes to get a mage to drop a table. Hope this helps someone out there.
