Is summoning an inferno in low-level zones griefing?

But that Gnome trifled where he shouldn’t have. Gnomes don’t have the power to control that demon. :slight_smile:

If you sign up for a PvP server, you’re signing up for sustained, long term Jerk mode. But that’s different from the PvE experience.

How utterly absurd, and par for your course.

I stand by my trial of the crusader argument. Lord Jaraxxus is summoned by an alliance gnome warlock who then fails to control his demon and his own faction and allies are forced to fight the beast.

Alliance warlock goes to Northshire Abbey and loses control of his infernal… his own faction and allies are forced to fight the beast.

So it would be ok for a warlock to keep an infernal that a flight master is attacking banned indefinitely so it wouldn’t die, and the flight master would be occupied attacking so no one could fly out?

Or like the idiot that was doing it to one in the SW auction house preventing people from interacting with the auctioneers?

Go to ironforge or darn?? Use a different flight path??

Unfortunately for me, you cannot banish an Infernal “indefinitely”. You can get a few banishes off, but even if you magically have perfect timing with all of your banishes, they can break off early or get resisted, meaning that on average a flight master will kill your Infernal usually before your 6th banish, leaving you with a 57 minute cooldown to wait for. Also, this is the best case scenario, assuming no players want to interfere.

Still not as funny as Goon Squad taking alliance flight masters hostage

I’d forgotten about that. That was fun. I took great enjoyment in chasing down each guildie.

Oh aye, and I’m definately going pvp. Pve servers are boooooring.

Emergent gameplay like this creates memories. Imagine how crazy it would be as a new player to have an internal spawn like that? You’d be talking about it forever. The game is most REMEMBERED for the disruptions. The blood plague, kiting bosses to major cities, scourge event, and so on. Stuff like this makes the game more interesting.

I remember that there was this 60 Undead Rogue in Redridge that just camped there, endlessly. You’d have to play around him as though he was a force of nature. It made the zone much more memorable than it would have been if I just killed mobs by myself.

First off, Wilfred screwed up and summoned a demon far more powerful than what he was actually trying to summon.

Second off, the very first thing Jaraxxus does is kill Wilfred.

Third off, after the encounter Tirion Fordring basically says “Stupid gnome got what he deserved for messing with the Dark Arts.”

So no, Blizzard was not even remotely “encouraging” people to grief their own faction with that encounter.

I was suspended for doing it with felguards. We are definitely not allowed to do it.

Without a doubt this will get you ba… You should for sure do this, tell all your friends to as well!

Can you still say all that after watching such a tragic back story?

Dude, no-one needs to hear what you do with the felguards. Keep that in your own home.

Sounds like oppression to me

How is using an ability in your toolkit “griefing?”

I’m having trouble following that logic.

It’s not people are just butt mad they can’t defend themselves against a superior class

Have we forgotten about hunters kiting various big bad bosses into major cities?? This is what made classic so memorable and fun! https://youtu.be/lFuBmkVvUTQ
