How to hog the flag as a Paladin

[Morphology]

Have you ever had one of those BGs where you declare that you are going to be FC but some smartass decides to run ahead and get the flag anyway? Well, there is a simple solution to this if you play Pally. A few seconds before the noob takes the flag, use Hand of Protection on them. They won't be able to loot the flag for 15 seconds. In this time you can loot the flag, throw them a /slap and go your merry way.

I see lol, Since i am the 3rd best druid fcer i need a way too. Don't make me necro that thread again guys.

Ok.

But then I wasted HoP. I'd much rather do a pick up if they die and save HoP for that Priest healing me.

hand of protection is 10s Hand of Protection - Spell - World of Warcraft

ill be the smartass and take off the HoP buff >: )

There's also good ol' let em run out and die alone, then get the flag. If the rest of the team actually knows what's going down, they'll let em die as well

Just focus on cutting corners etc on your way up to flag, and you'll get it easily anyway..

Cutting corners is without a doubt the best way to go. Pursuit of Justice doesn't hurt, either.

Really, it's shameful how inefficiently people move. Learning to cut corners can be lifesaving.

Rets are the fastest thing out there, so it shouldn't be too difficult to reach the flag first. It also works in AB with flag capping. Of course PoJ and HoP will both be changed and removed when the pandas come.

I say let the pvp hero die in mid and wait for the Repick and GG. if he makes then hes helped win a game, Win win all around yo.

It happens alot in 19s, you get used to it.
