Move Aside, Eddie Izzard

PvP is fun in some respects. You get to match wits with other players and pummel them into the ground. When one normally thinks of PvP in WoW terms we think of spec, gear, and skill. What you don't hear much about is underhanded tactics. That's what I'm here today about.

You may have realized this, a phenomenon in which each class has their own gear set which makes them easily identifiable. Brown armor? Druid. Fuel exhaust shoulders? Hunter. After a while it's not hard at all to spot who's who at a quick glance and respond accordingly. What I like to do however, is change things up a bit. There is one distinct feature that separates rogues, hunters, and warriors from everybody else. They don't have gear that looks like a dress.

So what do we do before heading to the PvP killfest? Simple!

With a getup like this there is a fair probability some poor fool will mistake you for a mage or other spellcasting class. Just sit back and watch those warlocks try to stop you with Curse of Tongues or Drain Mana.

Good times.
