Yeah, I was shocked to find I could kill those big cows with flame trap(not on purpose) I was trying to trap a mantid lvl 0, and the cow walked by, blam killed it.
A little life bar poped up over its head, it went "mooo" and fell over, sat for a bit then disapeared.
I thought it was real funny, you cant target them at all, and they dont turn aggro when you trap them. Anyway, I'm sure someone will be sick enough to try this(my wife was pissed I was killing these cows)(lol)...maybe post a screenie..........out

The real questions are do they give exp, are they level 200, and do they drop super cool cow weapons that moo when you attack!

You can also do it with Balthazar's aura and zealot's fire too so I'd imagine it would work for any skill that deals dmg indirectly.

Anyone up for some cow tipping?

The problem is that you can't target them directly, for some reason. As if Anet didn't want us to hurt them. Maybe they are holy

I think there is some secret connection to the cow level from Diablo.

This is pretty sweet. It would be neato if Anet added in random animals like this (in places no one would really check without telling anying) and have them drop weird weird weapons. They could move, too. One day they could be in the falls, one day they could be in Haiju Lagoon.

you can kill them in many ways;

wait for a mantid to come close, cast meteor shower on the mantid, cow is adjacent, *grins* or any other aoe spells where you target the mandits with a cow nearby :P really fun and they seem to be like level 5-7 =o

GW has weird opinions about what are animals, and what not.

Description :All animals in the area become hostile to your target and gain +20 armor for 30 seconds. Otyugh's Cry cannot turn charmed animals against their masters of their masters' allies. (50% failure change with Beast Mastery 4 or less.)

A note for players: There is no cow level

I want to try making a cow stampede

Edit: to make them stampede, you need an uncharmed Tiger to be near you (I sugest attacking one then ignoring it)

You cant target em, so you cant charm em.

My guildies and I just took some PBAoE and had some fun.. only armor-ignoring spells worked though, like Crystal Wave.

Oh yea, I got got wood. I'm going to charge players to watch me kill cows.
Hmm, it sadens me deeply, that my perverted and twisted way of thinking, never thought of any of these. I shall flog myself 100 times with razor wire, for this oversight. Then I'm going to go kill those cows!

I think Anet, should have the cows create a stamped and squish you, like when you harrassed the chickens too much in The Adventures of Link.
