Are there any spells/skills that are considered BM in PvP?

[:1]In Diablo 2x there are a few skills that are generally considered bad manners when dueling someone.

What about WoW - are there skills that you shouldn't use?|||when dualing someone, some people find it bad manners to use skills with long cooldowns, like the pally's bubble. however, in BGs, there are no rules.|||On a PvP server... anyhing goes can also be a reality.|||Are there any skills you shouldn't use as it is bad manners? I suppose the most honest answer is no so long as you can stand winning and then having to listen to the loser moan about how "unfair" or worse your win was...

Personally I don't care for duels, though over the last five years, I have engaged in a few here and there winning some and losing some. Now-a-days, I can just check the box for auto-decline in the CTmod and not have to worry about it anymore. (Which fact can be highly amusing at times watching some frustrated bully trying to force a duel on me.)

As far as real PvP goes in both the larger world and Battlegrounds, if Blizzard allows it, then it is not bad manners. The opponent may dislike it but that usually will be because his/her favorite tactic didn't work any longer or as well as they had hoped. One of those situations where ya pays yer money and takes yer chances, don't ya know.|||Repeat after me: there are no rules in PvP.|||Quote:

Quoted for truth.|||Dueling does have some gray area etiquette issues, pots, big cooldowns, etc, but I always looked at it that you're trying to get a measure of yourself versus another person, and the only way to effectively do that is if both of you pull out the stops. So, I say go for it, unless the two of you came to an agreement beforehand that states otherwise.

As for the rest.... anything goes in pvp. Period. Dragging mobs, attacking at zilch health and mana, attacking while gathering... you name it.|||Unless otherwise specified beforehand, then anything goes.

That's common courtesy really. You don't like it, then ask if the other will refrain and then they can decide if they deem it acceptable or not. Whining after wards, whereas it hasn't been agreed upon is simply childish imnsho.|||One thing vaguely comes to mind from this...

...but since the /spit emote is not a spell, I guess your answer is "no."|||OK thanks. I wasn't expecting that there was abilities that were BM; Blizzard seems to have done a good job; nothing is really overpowered.
