Does "Feign Death" work with another players?

Nander · 03-13-2006, 04:14 PM

Hi all.I have this doubt. I have used sometimes in PvP but always i have died, but my skill is only aprentice II with 59% of chance.Greetings and thanks =)

When you feign in PVP, or dueling, it causes the other player to lose target. Only slightly distracting, but if you are in a group of people, it could mean a couple second advantage.

yes it does work, the best example is when the mage types cast their pets that agro one target and disipate once that target dies. FD kills all of them lol.

yup, FD, hit X then sprint for it, they never see it coming and half of the time don't target you once you get up and run, and they never catch you unless they are a class that has a ranged attack castable on the move.

Does this ability also work in the arena?

Use FD alot while fighting or escaping. Make a macro to automatically stand once you use it. It will prolong your life and confuse your enemies. Don't use it if you are tanking and taunting, cause their targets will switch right to your healer or mages. If you're solo, you can run into aggro mobs and FD, so your opponent gets their aggro if he's chasing you. Its hard to believe how many people fall for that one.

Yes but anyone knowing what 'Previous Ennemy' means will get you back right away - I see that a lot of time where PC's are right back at me after FD'ing...and believe me I use it a lot and fast...
