this is also ridiculously hard to do unless you use a program like net limiter or something like that. anyone using dsl or above probably has too good a connection to do this…

Hellbound,
I would be careful with that method, and steer clear of it. Blizzard has labeled that method as an exploit and will either warn or temp ban people who do it. Messing with your internet connection in order to succeed at anything game-related violates the ToS. Do that method at your own risk, but I highly advise you not too.

I have heard but not tried that if you lag your comp to all hell its quite easy to do. E.G. open up 20 youtube videos open wow, your ping should b quite rediculous then you just run through the mine field, because of the lag you won’t set the mines off straight away (therefore you dont get dismounted or end up in the air) then when the lag catches up you have walked over like 15 or so mines and there is an easy achievement done.

I know about the bug, and while have no personal experience with it to confirm or deny, there are many high rated(green) wowhead posts about this showing that they have fixed the vehicle bug

Chpicker,
As of 3.0.8 vehicle mounts will be dismounted like normal mounts when a mine explodes.

Back in 3.0.3, if you were a tailor, you could get on your flying carpet and just ride across the mines to get this achievement. They wouldn’t knock you off of it. I don’t know if they fixed it in 3.0.8 or 3.0.9 or if it still works. This may also work for other mounts that work as a vehicle such as the motorcycles or grand mammoths; that’s just speculation on my part.

i wonder how they got the mines there without disturbing the snow? just joking of course. i did this on a druid without knowing it was going to give me ach. points. i almost fell out of my chair in laughter, because i was going from mine to mine for most of my hp, cause i couldnt figure out how to stop once it was started.
