Rustfeather's area

“Oh I hope someone trains a bunch of rustwings on me that head butt and knock me off the side of the mountain while I’m Alt-Tabbed waiting for Rustfeather!” said no one ever…

But… you just said it.

(I’m sorry that someone got you, but at least it’s not the end of the world. You could be the main tank on cigarette breaks who gets chain pulled by priests into some unfortunate spot!)

Casts barrage.
Casts feign death.

Just afk on your flying mount, noob

I remember that happening to a guy back in wrath. He kept telling them to knock it off. He went to the bathroom, and they pulled him off a ledge or into a patrol. He died and when he came back he said, have fun with your raid and logged off. The people that did it were yelled at by the GM hard.

I was not part of the raid when it happened, just sitting in vent listening to them. It might not have been wrath, I am not sure.

Stick yourself hovering in the air if you’re alt tabbed.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s not the most fun thing. My guilds have historically been pranksterish when downtime is happening.

The funniest one, to me, was when we had all priest healers one week and a few shadow priests. Everyone went for Leap of Faith, and we pulled the afk tanks back out of the room. Then we convinced most of the DPS to leave the room.

Tanks come back, confused why they’re just outside the boss room. “LEEROY!” Wasted about 25 seconds of everyone’s time, only inconvenienced ourselves, but had a blast.

Raid leader chuckled, asked us to get back on track, and that was our shenanigan for the week. If we knew one of them was less than tolerant of mold shenanigans, we’d have avoided making an issue for them.

That said, this was farm content. We weren’t pushing anything and it was just for kicks. If someone got bent out of shape that we weren’t putting 100% in, I don’t know what we’d have done. Considering on farm content we’d regularly leap of faith a healer into a mechanic, just for kicks, I’m not sure it would have come up.

It happens. I don’t know the feeling 'cause I’m usually not alt tabbed. Just had to pin point more or less within a bit when they’d re spawn, now that I have the mount rustfeather can kiss it… lol

once or twice is ok. Those guys were doing things that cause wipes just to cause wipes. From what I remember they did not stay in that guild for long. And soon transferred to another server because word got around horde side about them.

… don’t face yourself in that direction? Or hover low and where the flying thing can’t target you.

Go AFK down by the quest guy.

Oh, no. That’s too much. When I think of shenanigans, I think of stuff that only inconveniences myself for fun or my cohorts. Stuff that actually screws people up, short of wasting a few seconds, is a no no usually unless it’s a rare once off that most of us agreed to.

So, yeah. Once or twice can be funny, but that kind of thing, wiping the whole raid wouldn’t have amused me. I’ve seen it be funny, but it must be the exception not the rule.

Commanding a Voidwalker to do the dirty job without risk of getting headbutted as well is my guilty pleasure.

Call that practice for when your DPS do it during progression fights. :smiley:

Exactly, humor and toe keeping. Best of both worlds. Like how baby animals play fight, but it’s really training for real fights.

Why are you standing close enough to the edge to get knocked off? Why are you alt tabbed with background sound turned off so you’re unaware when someone pulls the birds around you? Sorry, but this is 100% a self-inflicted problem. :woman_shrugging:t4:
