Shadow
WarlockA great trick for the Ritual of Summoning is for the Warlock to select himself and two party members "summon" him. This brings up the Summon Accept screen and it gives you 2 minutes before it wears off. The Warlock may then hearth and repair, buy food/water for the group, or whatever else they want in two minutes. They then simply accept the summon from themselves. Voila! No time walking back.
Creative game mechanic use!
(Note: This isn't as useful for 5 man instances now with meeting stones summoning. It is still useful for questing, random grouping, and raid areas. Also, I have never tested it with battle grounds, but I assume it would *not* work since the they are an instanced area and you can't summon into instances.)

In case any of you have not noticed by now, the fancy new 'stone' is a demonic figure that is opening his big scary cloak and flashing you.
Pervert warlocks. First we all made the generic succubus jokes and had a good laugh, but now... you just sicken me with this. Best spell ever!
That pun is appalling. Shame on you.
