F2P Damage Control Challenge

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
So I was in a BG today and saw someone pull the 'remove your gear then reequip it move on their character to try and fix your stats' move; when they did this they had rejuvenation up on themselves, and unknowingly got their healing added to the charts. I thought that it was interesting and thought about it a little. If we could get enough people to deequip and reequip their items... would it be possible to get Damage Control!?


I did some screwing around on my warrior and my calculator to see how doable it is, and I was surprised.

This is my base health (no buffs) upon entering a BG. (2503)

This is my base health (no buffs) after removing all of my gear. (1098)
View attachment 1576

Now using simple math, that means when I put my gear back on I will have 1405 health available to be healed.

So I did a few rough calculations

(The surprising part)

If a healer where to heal me from the start of entering the battleground (before the gates even open!) using this method it would take them:

10 Minutes= If they where to take 3 seconds to heal me: (468 healing per second)
14 Minutes= If they where to take 4 seconds to heal me: (351 healing per second)
17 Minutes= If they where to take 5 seconds to heal me: (281 healing per second)
21 Minutes = If they where to take 6 seconds to heal me: (234 healing per second)
and etc.

Its important to add that you should probably measure in maybe a minute or 2 to each time just due to possible delays in any number of things (gear change, lack of healing, button mashing, etc.)

Considering this... the achievement is more than doable, may take 1 or 2 tries but is doable.

Why I am posting this is to see if anyone is interested in going for the achievement on their f2p character, im willing to be a healing bag for anyone wanting to go for it, you can pm and I can send you some details (my skype and a time we could do it) about it. Any character on any realm can try it since we can just multi que via skype.

If you want to ditch the middle man (me xD) and use someone else as a healing bag go for it! I am offering myself just do to the high amount of hp my character has.



If I where to get a geared healer who wants to go for the achievement I think the achievement could be actually easy to get (who knows).

No. Not possible. Idc what your calculations are (I made my own trust me...) there will be some asshole who will kill you or kill your friend and one death you're screwed and it's over. I had 15/20 ppl fully buffed and planned out in cata and there was still those 5 ppl that managed to ruin it.
 
I tried this on my pally. Got to 200k healing. Trust me it's not possible. I was unequiping/re-equiping and self healing in the healing hut. Did it for 20mins and still didn't get the achievement. Most games don't even last the full 20mins and all it takes is one guy to find out what you are doing and they will always try and come kill you. I also tried this with a warlock friend who was using soul harvest or whatever (the move that takes away hp from yourself) while I was constant healing. Still didn't work.
 
L2 Have Warlock friends u noobs. just spam heal while they life tap and its urs silly.
 
I got Damage Control
It cost about 2 hours

To be honest you'd probably have a better shot getting 2 friends on the opposite faction... join WSG, go to rejuv hut, dps Alliance player 1 while Alliance player 2 heals him and gets rejuv so he doesn't go oom. Not only will you get the achievement, but in theory so will the healer.

There are a few problems with that. One, just the planning, involves alot of moving parts to get that many people into one place without anyone else noticing, doing it my way you just have me (or someone else that's stam heavy) and the person healing. Another is that the damage would be unpredictable, you never know if someone is going to get a lucky crit or something. Another, healers would go oom; if you where to do it in the method I have listed the healer wouldn't be in combat, so they would have full mana regeneration, and they would also not have to deal with Battle Fatigue, which is really a bitch for healers this patch.

Just as I mentioned having that many people in the loop isnt as good as just 2 people, to many moving parts. This is also why I said it may take one or two tries, we would have to find a good place to hide and do this, and you never know if the battleground will be a easy 3 cap, if so just try try again.

There is a bit of a logical issue in doing it like this. In order to get the max 'healing room' (absent health available to be healed) you would have to be in a stam set; upon takeing off your gear you would have to be in a healing set, but then reequip your stam set, which would lose your hp, then take off the gear and put your healing set back on; this is if you wanted to maximize your healing and your 'healing room'. Ill get to warlocks next quote :).

Problem with this is that Life Tap really doesn't give the healer going for the achievement enough 'healing room', and if you wanted to get multiple warlocks to do it... you just run into the same problem I previously discussed with there being to many moving parts.

Grats on the achievement! I made this thread to see if anyone wanted to get the achievement that I could help get it/ to see if it was even possible. I have a friend who may want to try and go for this achievement, if she does try and go for it with me I will post with our results.

although it does involve planning. It is indeed verry fast paced and heals don't go oom because of the rejuv. I've done this myself and I liked this method a lot.
 
First trial run was succesfull!
I just helped my friend do it on his noob druid (StormSilver), we did it with plenty of time to spare! So this is more hten doable for those of you who want to go for the achievement... here are the screenshots.

This is at the a little over half way point, got to 160k in 6 minutes.

10k left to go, only 11 minutes in!

Mission accomplished!

This just shows the achievment is more then doable if not easy, my friends gear is subpar at best and we did it in our second bg we tried (first was a horde fast 3 cap)

Grats Stormsilver!


P.S.
Ty to Arbërlight and Kaboemba for seeing us go for the achievement and not reporting us AFK :).
