Avoid Attacks in Star Wars: The Old Republic with Dancing Glitch

SHARE:

Adjust text size:

A brand new video from Star Wars: The Old Republic shows a hilarious, yet extremely helpful glitch, as any player engaged in combat can just use a command to get his character to dance, thus stopping any enemy attack.

Star Wars: The Old Republic is a sprawling online role playing game, offering players the chance to engage in various adventures, customize their different characters, but also interact with others with the help of many in-game gestures.

Among them, there’s a special ‘/getdown’ command, which makes the player’s character dance. This command, besides its obvious use, can also help in combat, at least according to a few players of the online game.

In order to prove it, a video, which you can find above, has surfaced on YouTube, via RPS. In it, the player starts fighting a boss character and, once his own health drops, he just enters the /getdown command, to stop the enemy’s attacks.

BioWare has already confirmed that it will eliminate this exploit through a future patch but, until then, players can still take advantage of this glitch, especially during difficult boss battles.
