Tips and tactics

  • Levitate is a wonderful way to escape from other players by running to the nearest cliff or body of water. This strategy is particularly effective when escaping ganks on PvP servers.
  • An especially sneaky tactic used in Arathi Basin is to stay at the Lumber Mill and use Levitate to escape off the cliff if the priest is overwhelmed by other players. A sneak-attack can also be performed by safely jumping down the cliff to the Mine.
  • If being used to negate fall damage while falling from a great height, the reduced fall speed will increase the horizontal distance travelled and the landing place will be quite far from the cliff. This effect can be minimized by casting the spell mid-fall.
  • Conversely, this extended horizontal distance can be used to reach places that normally a player would be unable to get to. This may not be particularly practical, but it can lead to some interesting locations.

Notes

  • This spell breaks on damage.
  • Levitate does not allow the caster to walk on lava.
  • The minor  [Glyph of Levitate] removes the need for a reagent.
  • Mages have a similar skill that uses the same reagent: Slow Fall.
