Horde only can cap flags from 30 yards away. Even behind hill and over guards heads. Just a heads up.
It's not quite 30 yards. Little under i'd say.

All of them or a specific flag?

any and all of them. Only things i have noticed is for bunkers you need to be on somewhat of the same level as the flag in order to cap it.
GY flags just slide forward until mouse over turns gold. This can be done through hills and trees.
This can also be used to recap (take back) captured towers and GYs. Works great on Frostwolf relief hut as you can recap back from under the bridge (takes a little playing around to find the spot) and from behind tree or out of the little hut next to it.

Sounds like horde only treat. I cant do this as an alliance hunter even with my 2000yrd zoom.

Yeah, this works only for the horde.
I guess, blizzard had to implement this "bug", because many horde players whined about AV being unfair for horde (l2play maybe?).
Anyway i won't enter AV until blizzard fixes this bug.

i dont think this was intended kazso2..
anyway if u think av is fair,1 thing of the top of my mind : why can u channel towers without getting shot by archers?
and, this works.

People add on to my post with tips on different ways which is pretty much a yah i would say but even with all the tips and suggestions on it, no bucks? When i reread the posts i count three yahs before it got nerfed. Eh whatever.
