Here's a funny AV story.

We're riding along, we down the caster lady in the tower.

I go outside to drink while everyone takes the next tower. Along comes a lv64 Human Pally. I continue drinking and set Pumba my boar at him.

Well you know how our pets try to keep behind the 'mob' for the fight? This fight with the pally literally had me loling. Pumba would go behind him... 4 seconds later he'd turn. Pumba would get behind him again. 5 seconds later he'd turn. I let this go on for a good 5 minutes. I was dying of laughter, he never even thought to just attack me (who was still sitting btw).

Well after I put him down, riding to catch up to the rest of the group. Guess who I see? That's right Mr.64 running down the main trail by himself. I send my pet on him again (for another laugh)... same thing happens, 5 second delay on him turning to hit my pet. A few other Hordies come and end his misery.

Lastly, my favorite Human Pally was coming back by himself again. This time I keep pet on passive. He starts hitting me for like 20 damage (no lie). I felt so bad for him... I was going to let him kill me lol. But again Hordies came along and owned him. Poor fella.

Normally I don't ***** around in BGs like that... but that one pally was just too much fun to pass up.

Anyone got any fun stories? I'm stuck at work another hour

Not to take anything away from you, but if you didn't beat a sloppy Rogue with three healers backing you up, I'd say there was something seriously, seriously wrong :P

Just a trick with using Flares...if you know you've got a Rogue moving in for some sneaky violence, I target my flare so that the center of the green targeting overlay is on my toon...the flare deploys almost immediately that way and makes it impossible for the rogue to get to me without exposing himself.

Back when flares actually lasted long enough to let you have two out at once, I used to 'stand on' one and fire one behind or in an object near where a rogue would have to stealth by to get to a point. I caught a lot of them that way. However, my favorite BG trick is this:

I place a freeze trap right in the base of the object they need to take. Works very well in AB, AV. In WSG, I place it by an entry point. Nail one every time. If you stand by the trap, and your CD is off, you can immediately retrap them after they trinket. PO's them something firce.

Another trick I haven't used in a LONG time is FD & shadowmeld/prowl (for you NElf's with cats). It used to be highly effective for making a player think you died and immediately rezzed back at the GY. I did this at about 20-25% health. Worked often. I don't know if it still works as I haven't BG'd in so long and they may have patched it out. Never have a need for it PVE. Word of caution, your pet cannot be attacking for this to work and needs to have Prowl engaged right after you shadowmeld. You and your pet vanish! If you are outmatched, it lets you hide a bit and call for reinforcements. If you aren't, you can pot, send pet and surprise the heck outta someone that thought you were dead and at the GY.

I was in WSG and level 56, fighting a 59 pally with no one around. It was a close fight but he was beating me. I managed to get him down to about 20% health before I was about to die. I FD'd and he started to walk away. I mustve had like 100-200 health and my pet was dead. As he was running away I got up and killed him before he realized that I wasn't dead.

In the 30-39 thicket WSG, everyone on the team was lolhonourfarm, but me and a warrior(neither of us twinks) got rushed by like 4 twink rogues in the flag room, we killed em so fast neither of us got below 50% hp, was hilarious, two of em left after that too XD
