    YES YES YES. This is exactly why everyone needs to be subbed to Archvaldor and even more so to his Patreon. Absolutely gamebreaking (literally) trick that is beneficial for both Horde and Alliance to know. This is something I always knew was possible, just never was doable with the right setup. Amazing find

    ok lets combine this with another exploit: if your inventory is full items from ashran get send to your mail, allowing you to start the next one with basicly infinite items(some are unique, but you can use em/loot more from mail).
    the same works on most of the alterac valley items, allowing you to instantly upgrade npc, use the toy for fast port

      Yeah I've known about that one for some time, it is cool being able to start a bg with that stuff. Rextroy did a vid a while back on av where he summoned everything right at the start using the mail glitch. Not sure how it helps for soloing though-maybe lightning shield for extra dps.

      Sometimes you can get around it (with the risk of being the asshole if you were just assuming youd get kicked).
      If someone complains about you being afk initiate a votekick on them saying something like afk "your name/role". If the others actually are paying attention they would probs also call out that you arent afk just as likely as them noticing the false votekick and maybe clicking yes for the hell of it. Tho dont do it too often because pugs rapidfire clicking yes on vote-kicks without reading them is kind of cancer tbh.

    One single correction i'd make : Volrath and by extension Tremblade DOESN'T reset their health even if they retreat into their bases. They keep their damaged health and MUST be healed up by players.
    Also the automated "you get reported by 3 players and you're out if you don't damage an enemy player" crap is the worst fucking thing in this game. It doesn't matter a lot of the time. I got kicked from Wintergrasp for "being afk" even though i was destroying enemy siege machines at one of the towers.

    • @archvaldor
      @archvaldor  2 роки тому +2

      "Volrath and by extension Tremblade DOESN'T reset their health even if they retreat into their bases." I agree. I was talking about something else. When the bosses come out with the dialogue "Reinforcements have arrived...dispose of those that remain" they then slowly walk inside their bases, de-spawn, and then re-spawn at 100% health. They do this about 10-15 minutes after the gladiators are removed from the bridge. If the bosses just drop combat and run inside their base then as you say their health is not reset.

    • @archvaldor
      @archvaldor  2 роки тому +1

      The mechanics of alterac blitz are pretty well established, if you assign healers and tanks properly. I found I could comfortably tank 2-3 commanders fairly easily so for a premade it should be fairly trivial provided the Horde don't interfere too much. To be honest though I have very little tanking experience beyond what I did for this video. I'd look out for a video from Rextroy who according to Margo (see below) seems to have done the blitz recently. (btw disregard a previous response I misread your post)

    I suspect Red Thirst isn't actually required if you're geared enough, Purgatory might be a good pick if you expect the horde to attempt to stunlock you.
    Usually when I am at Volrath and sitting in a 6 second cheap shot, there's barely a second left before I get off that death saving Death Strike. It could save the game.

      Hi mate, sorry I had RL issues when were chatting sorry to cut you off. At ilvl 250-5 there was no serious possibility of surviving player damage and getting a kill normally so I didn't really plan for that. I agree Purgatory is a good idea beyond that. Also I imagine you barely notice the Blood for Blood damage with your gear but it makes a huge difference on the edge of viability. I actually started with necrolord but I wanted as much runic power as possible. Btw You seemed to acquire the AA very quickly-do you solo it normally? I was surprised how quickly you did it and how the Horde never noticed the AA moving on the map. Also: did you ever try this with Drek or PVE solo stuff?

      The AA is a rare that spawns in the west part of the map. 4 mages conjuring can do a lot of dmg so it'll take a little moment to kill, but I received help from a couple of players and we got it down very fast. I am not sure what the exact spawn timer is on the rare that drops the AA, it might be random.
      It's a short route from there to the path you highlight in this Video hack you put up ^^
      I haven't tried to solo Drek, although I don't think it's possible because we don't have the Ashran HP buff. The HP buff is the reason Blood DK's are able to solo Volrath, since our DS scales to our HP, being locked behind a % based heal.
