{EXPLOIT} Vanishing and Re-Appearing in PvP combat

[Korbrud]

About 4 other alliance questers and myself were in Alterac Mountains, where PvP combat began with one of our party members and a horde mage named Drinkz. As Drinkz was about to die, he popped iceblock, and then.. seemingly vanished. None of us were able to target him and he was not to be seen, until later.
Minutes later, while killing mountain lions, a ?? hunter named Largozh thought it would be fun to ruin a questing party and attempted to gank us. However, as he was nearing death, he too seemingly vanished. He re appeared a couple seconds later, killed a couple of us, but when he was under the threat of death again, he vanished for a second time. Only to re-appear again.
Drinkz, the mage from earlier appeared once again trying to gank us, and when he was nearing death he would once again vanish, and re-appear. Anyways, it was pretty obvious that this was happening at will, the two were having a lot of fun with us, taunting and what not. Largozh the ?? hunter was hilarious because he couldn't handle a couple of level 30s and needed to exploit to try to kill us. I don't know when this was discovered, but there are a few players running around in this area using this exploit. I hope it gets fixed soon . You guys do awesome work here.

I tried taking screenshots of these encounters. I will provide them if needed, though you will mostly see the group just freaking out about it...

So.. It's an exploit to log out then log onto your higher level to prevent ganking? Get use to it. It's a pvp server and praise largozh for slaughtering alliance ganking scum.

@Noxm. ? Both of those items have long CDs? The vanishing while in iceblock and other times in combat were more frequent than 10 min/ 1hr? Since when can you loggout immediately while in combat/ in an iceblock?

[Noxm]

You cant loggout immediately with alt-F4 while in combat.

You can vanish alt-F4 log out with chance if not in combat..

I can concur, this happened to me just only with a 60 Troll Mage named Lazermon.

She was ganking around WPL sorrow hill and the camp, she killed me many times while I was questing, there were 2 instances where I helped another fellow alliance and we almost took her down but she "VANISHES" when she was really low hp <10%. Both instances is like roughly 10minutes time in between.

I assume she is abusing the "enter BG" queue thing.

Though I'm not sure if u can enter a BG when queue pops while in combat though..

I could pin it only on the horde & especially UD rogues, but I am not going to make an ass out of myself like you because both sides have ganking scum and it would be very ignorant to pin it on one faction. It has to do with the player. Not the faction, ignorant biased fool. Pathetic, really. Ignorance may be bliss in some cases. Well, I'm out. Ta-ta!

One more thing, OP wasn't ganking. He/she was questing with his/her party members. The ?? horde player is scum in this case. Some people these days.


Now, I am out. Ta-ta and happy vanilla gaming!
