Shann and I used a very nice trick for this in BG about a week ago...Paladin losing health...95%...90%....80% (begin charging up synchronised fireballs)...70%..(fireballs released followed by two instant fireblasts)..69%.0%.  loladin went to bubble-hell.

My most annoying ability?  Feign death and vanish while dotted.  Case 1: Look, I KNOW you are faking it.  You had 50% health.  Why make me retarget you, why?  Ok, maybe you are an incredible actor and managed to pull off a double backflip followed by some convincing gurgling sounds, in any case, I am a man who likes to err on the side of caution - even if you WERE really dead, I would STILL fireball your ass just to make sure!  At the very least I would give the vultures a cooked meal!

Case2:  You are running around with your ass on fire screaming for the fire brigade.  Ok, you are a master of stealth, I accept that - SAS stealth training and shit, that's cool.  But really - your ass is on fire, that's kinda hard to hide...yet somehow you manage to disappear for long enough to run from one side of my screen to the other AND I lose my target.  Now, I have a modest intellingence of 300+.  Perhaps not a rocket scientist, but does it really take one to aim for the moving ball of fire?

I think you've become one of my heroes :)

Regarding vanishing/FD etc.. well... sometimes in BG you never know if a heal might be just .1 seconds away, and that extra retarget/start casting again time can be life or death XD

I'm surprised Kawe hasn't gone on about unbreakable stuns yet... :P

It's weird actually...

I used to just take the stuns as they came. Took them as part of the mass-PVP environment. I trusted Blizzard entirely, so I just didn't mention it.

And then one day, you went off on one... And that opened my eyes. They didn't actually bother me until you, Kawe, enlightened me!

I'm too hungry to write fully.

Let's just say:

6 second stun + whole AV raid beating on you, without stun breaking = HOW GAY CAN IT GET?!?!?

Breakable stuns, sure! Very SHORT unbreakable stuns, alright! But 6 f*cking seconds?! I can understand using them to heal yourself, or to get further away from the target.

But why, WHY should you be able to be raped from 100% to 0% during the stun? It's effectively an I-Win card every 45 seconds in a mass-pvp environment if used properly.

I just don't get the logic.

Not to mention the fact that most alliance PVP teams will have 3-5 paladins. Or maybe up to 10 in AV.

Garghrhgh...

It's EVEN RANGED!

GODDAMN YOU BLIZZARD!

Okay, breakfast time.

rogues in general, blind especialy, is there more anoying thing then frosted rogue hopeless watching you charging bolt and then he figure out he have some blind powder and use it like 0.3sec before bolt is charged. oh I so hate that.

And druids in general too, I do like 10k dmg on them and when they are out of mana and hp they just run away, before it was ok when AM folow you from one side of bg to another but now it like (http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y105/kouteki/smilez/Self_stab_YAY.gif)

Vipersting, by FAR THE most annoying thing EVER.

Vipersting, by FAR THE most annoying thing EVER.

True dat. And the fact that DoT's don't trigger the Daze effect of Aspect of the Cheetah.
A hunter can just stay at the 41 yard range and vipersting, run out, shoot me some, and when I get into 30 yard range, I dot - He runs away because he's not dazed.
And if I were to come close "OLOL FEIGN DEATH TRAP R SUPERIORLOL".

And vieprsting doesn't break freezing trap the last time I checked. And 1k autoshot crits from range. Cry.
Against a good hunter, I just bend over. Stupid... Bah.

Yeah, I mean, stuff you have to spec for are fine imo, but. FUCKING 6 sec ranged stun. Dispellable or not - it is indeed the worst thing since canned cheese.

lol, dispel? :P trinket? :P living action potion? :P no such thing as an unbreakable stun just n00bs like delling who dont know how to break it :)

FAPs are the only thing that work here really. I use them occasionally, but when you are playing 5 paladins or so...

For the same reason, using a trinket every 5 minutes, just to be stunned by another paladin... nicht so gut.

And you can't dispell yourself when you're stunned, nub!

If you came back and put down a grounding totem though... ;-)

the point is a priest should never be in the situation where a loladin can stun them they should be dispelling and lol smiting :) i see i still need to tell you how to play delling. Teh rogues/mages/shaman should be taking care of the loladins not teh priests :P


leeeeern teee plaeee

I try... in group pvp it's not so much of an issue. I more mean when I'm soloing/duoing in AV, just melting some faces... and then a paladin comes along with 39 of his friends and gangrapes me, right in the middle of the Field of Strife...

Sorry Detri, you can keep telling me lern tae plaey, but you're the casual that quit...!
Title: Re: Most Irritating Ability that grates you PvP!

( even if i am a casual your still a n00b and no amount of t3 lewt will change that less than three <3 )

<EDIT> btw i aint no vendor trash i demand a priceless epic forum rank!!!! </EDIT>

Of course I understand mate, but I won't lose this opportunity to call the original hardcore a casual in front of everyone else...

Much love, Detri :)

Hope you got things sorted!

Wait, wait, I got it!

The most irritating ability that someone can use on you in a WoW Battleground:

'Detritus has left the battle'.

"OMG, WE'RE GONNA LOSE NOW, WE LOSE OUR SEKRIT WEAPON!!!"
