http://thottbot.com/?qu=5097 is a somewhat difficult quest in WPL that requires you to place a torch in the doorways of the four Andorhal watch towers. It's probably easy in a group and there are several comments on thottbot about standing out of the aggro range. This is all fine and dandy, but when I recently did it on my level 56 hunter, the elite aggroed me before I could get in to the door. Instead of looking for a group, I decided I was going to find a way round this.
Now, for this to work, you need to have a complete aggro reduction spell such as Feign Death or Vanish. Bare in mind I have only tested this with a hunter.
Now here's what you do:
1: Dismiss your pet. If you bring your pet, the elite will just start attacking it when you feign.
2: Run into the tower, wing clipping the elite if you so wish.
3: Without stopping, run up the stone ramp at the back of the tower and on to the wooden step bits.
4: Once on the steps, feign death. If you've done it right, the elite should run back to his spawn in the centre of the tower.
5: Once the elite is back in the centre of the tower, turn off feign death.
6: The elite will target you, but he is not able to attack you.
7: Wait a few moments and he'll un-target you and make a series of clanking metallic noises.
8: Suddenly, he'll teleport up to the wooden steps. When he does this, jump down, run to the doorway and feign death (you may have to wait in the doorway for a few seconds for the FD cooldown to expire).
9: The elite is now stuck on the wooden steps, allowing you to place the torch without being attacked.
Notes: Sometimes he interrupts your torch placement. There seems to be no explanation for this. If he does interrupt your casting, run out his aggro range then come back and repeat 1-9.
This may not be so useful in this situation, but I'm sure it can be exploited in towers wich use the same model.
Incidently, I wasn't sure whether to post this in exploits or guides. Move it as you see fit.
