Speedbug :/

[Prometheus]

Here's an interesting post I thought I'd share with you guys, taken from Stormreaver forums:

Just a free webhost, hope u dont mind, didn't wanna kill my business websites bandwidth =P

The reason i didn't put the legit listing rules, is cause it really doesn't fit any of the bug descriptions, sorry about that..

Anyway, as you can see, a priest that mind controls with dot on, can kill someone in a duel, if u do it to someone mounted, kill someone, then rest them, they will have mount speed when ressed, Good game.

Causes for serious issues, like finding herbs, mining, running around attacking ppl, epic mounts own with this bug, hehe..

A few of us tested this, and figured it out, (Light, Jebas, Cooltown, & Ludio) please give credit, where credit is due.

My thoughts on it after watching the video were pretty much summed up with "..."

The things level 60s are up to after they get all their gear runs done ;>

btw, I didn't post this so that everyone could go ahead and start exploiting it, just thought I'd share it since it seemed pretty interesting :P

Not cool

Yeah just tested it, lol me and 2 priests ran around punching people to death, was funny to keep up with druids in cat form and rogues using sprint and punching them to death.

Also ran into major towns and punched people to death and left guards in our wake.

Only thing though, anything spell/shield/skill that affects movement speed will reset it, so if you see someone running around just hamstring, frost shield, etc them.

Hopefully its fixed soon, havent laughed so hard in awhile.

1 word: LOL

i almost fell down from my chair when they were jumping over the "crack" in if :)

That is a bannable offense known to Blizzard. You will get an instant ban.

[Laches]

I wonder if it's also a bannable offense to take advantage of the mechanism whereby you can get quest credit for nonraid quests in raid groups, simply by leaving the group right before a quest mob dies, and/or leaving raid group to get quest items.


Because pretty much every alliance guild on our server is doing it. You run into zillions of zerglings with barov peasant callers, and you just know they ain't getting them from 1 grouping scholo.

Is this a new speed bug, or is this the same one Blizzard announced they were aware of shortly after release?

No doubt, unfortunately they haven't gotten around to fix it yet :/

[Ladro]

every bug u use on purpose is illigal...you also get banned if u go to unfinished buidings etc...just don't use exploits , play the game fair :x

[Krissam]

the problem is not finding out wether peopæe uses bugs, the problem is finding out if they do them on purpose.

though i'ld say if the use this same bug multiple times in a row, they most likely are

The original speed problem, was GEAR, this is totaly ingame bug related. I showed a GM on Kel'Thuzad tonight, hope they fix it. Its funny, but yeah...highly exploitable.
