Just like Warsong Gulch's hill climbing. The developers maybe did not foresee it, but their sloppy design allows for this to be used without people having to hack. Just regular jumps and moves.

Like I told you in AV battleground chat, just deal with it.

By that logic, it would be fine to jump on top of vanndars bunker and stop anyone from capping flag?

The backdoor is riddled by mines now.

Literally any ranged class can solo defend it, and making the games into a turtle. Seen plenty of 2hour+ games during the AV WEEKEND so I stopped queueing for AV completly since it's a complete waste of time

Hmm...not sure. I'd guess that GMs will say that the difference with that one is that you can't attack the person who climbed (safespotting) while you can always attack the person who is trying AV backdoor or WSG wall climbing.
But again, not sure, I'd say it's worth a shot if you can pull it off, and only if you get a GM to address you, should it be stopped. Go for it.

i think they should put mines on the graveyard jumps in WSG and then also make an invisible barrier wall on the midwall of aliyan and horde base, just so no-one can jump

Oh no, AV lasting more than two hours like it was designed to? Sounds like retail would be a good spot for you sweetie.

Sweet argument bro.

I guess you like the insanely fun minigame of standing on the bridge for a few hours while doing blizzard until people leave of boredom?

IDGAF about AV lasting an entire lifetime on the weekdays. Masochists are welcome to join that shit. Just stating that in it's current state it's a complete waste of time to try farm honor in AV, even during bonus weekend.

Alliance has a huge advantage and the only light in the tunnel that horde had was patched out with the lolmines placed in spots they shouldn't be in.

Which reminds me. When are the mines supposed to disappear? I think they're overdue already, and they're pretty shitty.
