How to be an asshat in WoW

[Deleted]

Haha, I've done it accidentally but never on purpose. There were a few times in Vanilla/BC when I'd be running a lowbie through a dungeon on my pally and they'd be criticizing and acting like little shitbags so I'd get a nice big pull and bubble hearth. Guildie or not, fuck anybody who complains when I'm doing them a favor.

That is justified completely.

Speaking of have groups will travel pranks. I use to know some one who would gather a 40 man raid saying he would be giving money away at a secret location. He would summon them into a raid full of horde.

Buy the reforge mount. Brag to your guild for days about how it will be so so useful. Mount up on it constantly. Refuse to hold still when someone actually needs it.

Keep mats for all the flasks on you. Make the wrong one every time someone asks you to make them some and trades you mats. Pretend you don't know the difference. (I always make the right ones after the rage for a sec.)

Taunt Vann/Drek and run outside

If you're in a guild that's uptight about chants and gema show up with icy weapon instead of jade spirit. Claim it goes with your outfit better.




They patched this out but warlock gates where the tank had to be before they made them clickable was awesome.

That is not so much asshat as it is epic.

Things I've done in the past:

Death grip the bombs before the Mimiron room into the raid group while everyone is afk.
Using path of frost while everyone is falling in ToC.
Taunting a certain dragon boss in ICC to face the raid just before the frost breath.
Using BoP on the main tank and getting some melee dps killed.
Using Have Group, Will Travel to summon your raid above the maelstrom thingy in stv.

Did someone say [Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker]?

Last person to link Thunderfury gets 10000 gold.

Mage portals in Dragon soul when Hagara portals pops, hearing the screams of people in exodar. It was worse when the patch 5.0 changes hit and we lost have group, will travel and we couldnt summon and there was no lock in the group.

Trying to tank as a Prot Paladin and having Every. Fucking. Death Knight death grip adds off of you.

I'm not trying to stereotype here, my main is a Death Knight, but I recently started leveling my Paladin and between 80 and around 87, every Death Knight I grouped with DG'd off CD.

[Drfireburns]

Telling someone you're not interested in a mount, then rolling need on it and winning it.

[KaziOfTheSkies]

In battlegrounds.
"Lord Pebbleton has reported you for being AFK! You won't receive honor or experience. Type '/afk clear' to remove the report.".
Hordes and hordes of people leave every time in AV.
...this is now bannable.

I actually did this a few times a year or so back, had someone do a full caps RAGE-/whisper to me about me reporting him afk. Then he did /afk

[HAcoreRD]

drop portals on top of summoning stones. gets people who aren't paying attention

[Deleted]

Oh. I'm not sure if this is considered being an asshat... I thought it was justified.

I used to play with a level 70 friend who'd help me level from time to time and we'd chat and whatnot

I was around level 30, there was a chap my level who was a dickhead. I grouped with him a couple times. He was arrogant and annoying.

Anyway, we hatched a scheme to get him back.

He knew little about the game, so I grouped with my level 70 friend and he whispered this guy informing him of a really powerful dragon in Darkshire (The emerald dream thingy, this was in BC) that guarded a portal (The one that didn't take you anywhere) which took you to a secret room with lots of loot.

He fell for it, and followed us two. We made him use up his hearthstone beforehand to make sure he couldn't get away. My friend then said he'd tank the dragon to give us 2 time to get through the portal since we needed the loot more than him.

I was told to go first, so I went through the portal whilst the dragon was attacking my friend, and once behind the opaque portal I hearthstoned to get away.

The other guy was told to go, so he went through the portal and started complaining because he wasn't going anywhere.

My friend, who was a paladin, bubble-hearthed and got away leaving the poor guy alone with a rather nasty dragon heading his way. He wasn't able to ress there, and had to suffer ress-sickness.

It was a small victory, but it was a damn good feeling.

Party-grenades, else I am normally a real person and being nice to people. But if you wanna be a troll and mean, then throw the grenade when people are having a feast.

[Realsykes]

path of frost while falling

Especially in ToC heading to Anub'arak.

[Lochton]

path of frost while falling

That's why I bubbled back then when falling, so if I died in the fight, I would throw the blame on the fail DK/Shaman doing so. As he's the fault I used a cooldown to not be trolled.

[Monkeybrains]

Run random dungeons / raids as a Ret Pally with [Righteous Fury] on then bitch at the tank calling him / her a noob for not holding aggro.

(Happened to me when I was tanking and the Pally kept Righteous Fury on the entire run).

[TJ]

throwing that dam mr T night elf head thing at everyone.

Good times! Especially on an RP realm hahah. I miss that

[Nasriel]

I would also use my Direbrew remote on Razorscale in Ulduar and cackle maniacally when people would scream over vent about being randomly in BRD.

That one actually is quite funny I remember a guildie put one of the direbrews remotes up in ICC. Another guildie had never seen one before and clicked on it. Man it was funny hearing the RL nerd rage at him for being in BRD with no lock (it was the lock who went to BRD xD) to summon xD
