Shadowstep Exploration? engi required

[imisswalljumping]

Been a member for a while, long time explorer, and after the nerf to walljumping, I've been desperately trying to discover new ways to get around the issue.

Basically, my idea utilizes shadowstep, and the engineering item Target Dummy. I haven't had a chance to test it, but seeing as how the Target Dummy is designed to be attacked in pvp, and you target cast it to the ground, you can, theoretically shadowstep it right?

I play alliance, and haven't been able to find another rogue friend with engi willing to test it with me, but I want to try the wall (no longer passable since nerf) right before the outer ring of the org arena, that you have to walljump in order to get high enough to jump down in the arena.

Just theory crafting right now, gonna try and find someone once i'm off work.

Anyone ever try it?

The idea is to start a duel and have the engi drop a target dummy on an otherwise unreachable spot, then have the other rogue shadowstep the dummy before it 'splodes. Possible?

I mainly want to get into org arena again, and thanks to all the RAF crap, I can now summon a 20 warlock alt directly into the arena, and with the help of some rogue friend, (if in fact this will work) i'll be able to get my a 20 lock on my main account in, and voila, free summons to one of the cooler places in old world.

Now if I can just find some way to get back into Hyjal stupid no man's land debuff.

Nice idea. I like it + rep for you :-)

stupid rogue friend with engi didn't wanna go to org, which is where i ultimately want to test my theory. i'll update tonite when i get hope, if it functions as i think it will, i'll include screens and a short fraps'd video.

nice idea...never been an engineer so i dont know that much about the test dummy. can the engineer just place it anywhere he wants within a certain radius?

[imisswalljumping]

yes. it's a targeted effect like blizzard or hurricane or distract.

you can still get in that arena with Rocket Boots Xtreme and slow fall
