  Hello im DeathLabel from East, and i wanted to share an interesting discovery i made about Alchemy Skill: Mana Pistol.
  
  This skill is very useful on getting agro and even getting break offs (try it with black scar, it will get the break off if used correctly) and its one of the least noticed caracteristics that caught my attention.
  
  Mana Sniper:
  
  When you summon a Mana Pistol its summoned verticaly, on top of the surface in front of you. This almost all the time will summon the pistol on the floor, but if you do it near a wall with some angle it will spawn on top of it. This can be useful to get the Mana Pistol out of the Bosses/monsters reach.
  
  This out of reach effect will cause the boss or monster to get "confused" since its getting atacked and it CANT dmg the atacker. As you see in the video the boss will lose aggro on everyone and wonder around depressed:lol:.
  
  You can use this technique on Every boat, so far i tested on Boat 2 and boat 4, but it should work on every boat. Sometimes it WONT spawn right on the top (because i think it has a height cap or maybe it has to do with the angle) but in the middle of the wall, it is still very very helpful.
  
  Now go try this at Hoarfrost Hollow Gauntlet and give me some feedback :2thumb:

  Seems like an exploit to me?
  
  I mean, they probably can't detect it. But, it does seem like an exploit.

  Same kind of exploiting as evade bugging a mob in WoW.

  Well, it might be an exploit, but i prefer to think of it as a great explanation for why that ledge is there.
