BG Exploits - WTF Bye Cooldowns!

[treyska]

whats the cooldown, is it over 10 minutes?

[Alkhara Majere]

Did not reset my pally's lay on hands, nor my Druids res.
Still nice for my Rogue

[treyska]

bah, just as i expected. blizzard didn't make a mistake in the patch notes when they said that it only works for spells with 10 minute cooldowns or less.

Oh, and i tested trinkets too - it reset their cooldowns as well.

another thing to keep in mind is that arena BG hopping will not dispell any negative status effects on you, so you cant get rid of your res sickness or your deserter.. /cry

[MaiN]

Darn it! Could be cool for resetting Mooncloth cooldowns..
:P

[treyska]

here's to hoping blizz messes that part up when they open up the rated arena matches :P

[Shingles]

They always have to mess up with something each patch!

[blueorange]

but if AB starts B4 the arena then you are screwed. lol, good idea though.

It did reset divine shield (5min cooldown)

I'm guessing it's only going to reset cooldowns less than 30minutes - which is still not bad.

haven't tested any trinkets.

in blizzard's patch notes it says it will only reset cooldowns 10 minutes or less. i've tested trinkets and it works, and i've tested all my 1-10 minute cooldown spells and it works. people have tested lay of hands, and it didnt reset.

just hop in the arena, buff yourself up, leave, and then queue for AB. the arena queue only takes about 30 seconds for horde, not sure about alliance.

Thanks for the nice tip.

LOL, thats no exploit.

just read patchnotes...

[koraff]

didn't reset lay on hands.

quite frankly in bgs the cooldowns come and reset in time to go to arena and come back simply to save a few minutes seems pointless the only power I would want to do that with is lay on hands with its 1hr cooldown but apprently it doesnt work so w/e nice find anyways tho

reminder.. the arena only refreshes cooldowns under 15 mins

that's where i got it from. read closer and you'll notice that i'm exploiting this tool that blizzard has implimented. im sure that they didnt mean to have people joining and leaving Arena skirmishes every few minutes to reset their cooldowns.

exploit,

use or manipulate to one's advantage; "He exploits the new taxation system";
