Tag - Play Tag with a Happy Fun Rock
Throw a Happy Fun Rock or a Heavy Leather Ball at a friend, and they're It! Tag turns the game's two throwable toys into a game: it keeps track of who was hit last, tells everyone in your group, and keeps a scoreboard of who throws the most and who gets hit the most.
Perfect for launching a Happy Fun Rock at your raid leader all night long.
How to Play
- Put a Happy Fun Rock or a Heavy Leather Ball in your bags
- Target a friendly player
- Click the Throw button. If they have room in their bags they catch it, and they're It!
Getting the Items
- Happy Fun Rock: dropped by the ogres in Dire Maul
- Heavy Leather Ball: made by leatherworkers, or bought from Flik at the Darkmoon Faire
Tag uses whichever one you have, and prefers the rock when you carry both, unless you pick the ball.
Features
- Throw button: shows what you'll throw and how many you have, while the Tag window is open. Drag its grip to move it, lock it in place, or hide it
- Throw key: set a key that throws at your target
- Who's It: everyone in your group with Tag sees every hit, and you get a big "You're It!" when it's you
- Sounds: a throw sound when your throw lands, and a dodgeball smack followed by "Tag, you're it!" when someone gets you (you can turn them off)
- Red screen edge: the edges of your screen pulse red when you get hit
- Scoreboard: who throws the most and who gets hit the most
- Start Round: clear the scoreboard and start a round for the whole group, with a fitting sound clip
- Win the round: every hit is a point, and the first to the target (10 unless you change it) wins with fireworks and a burst of colour for the whole group
- Pause: call a timeout for the group; throws don't count until someone resumes
- Taunt: when someone else gets hit, let them know they got knocked out, with a sound clip the whole group hears
- Effects switch: turn off the banners and screen effects if you'd rather keep a calm screen
- Announce in chat: optionally say each tag in party or raid chat, so players without Tag can play along
- Works in combat: the button and key keep working, and changes wait until combat ends
