I wonder if most players who are actively getting the title are actually doing it for the title, or even in part, and/or if they are mostly the same people with top keys before the title existed? :thinking:

Most people getting the title are just people tipping gold for resilient keys now.

Is anything being done about the exploiters one shotting rasha’nan in Dawnbreaker? - Unbound Hero - Dawnbreaker Exploit Abuse

I chuckled. They’re just coming off a holiday break and about to release a major patch, they don’t have time to deal with exploits of legacy dungeons.

Give us a title mount!

If everyone can do it is it really an “exploit”?

resil keys have made boosting rampant. you should dq the people buying title https://www.reddit.com/r/CompetitiveWoW/comments/1qbph4b/high_m_boosting_is_rampant_and_you_cant_do/

Only those who actually violate Blizzard’s ToS should be disqualified — specifically, people who hand over their accounts to third parties or pay real money.

This season, I got into the last keys I needed by giving gold to players who already had the key, finding them through LFG. I do not believe that people like me should be excluded from the race because of this.

After I gave gold to people for an invite to a key, I was added to a questionable list that does not include a single person who actually shared their account or paid real money.

Because I apparently upset some streamer (that’s literally what is written there, lol) in one of the keys — at a moment when I had just entered a +20 Dawn for the first time and was only starting to get used to the boss — I was placed at rank #1 on that list and publicly dragged for it. All because, having only one Dawn invite every couple of weeks, I didn’t instantly play the boss perfectly.
Later, I timed a +20 Dawn normally — the key was not resil, and I did not pay gold for it.

Meanwhile, people who actually violated Blizzard’s ToS by paying real money or handing over their accounts are not on that list at all.

All players on the so-called “buyers” list in TWW Season 3 played their own characters and got their invites by paying gold.

This strongly suggests that the people who created this list are trying to limit honest players’ access to invites just because they once agreed to pay gold for a good chance to time a key — effectively pushing them toward paying real money in future seasons.

The only thing I genuinely regret is that I was convinced that once I was already in title range, I would not affect the lower cutoff of the top 0.1%. However, if you look at it from another angle, in the current system more than 50% of players spend half a day wiping in resil keys, while I timed the keys I paid gold for in one or two attempts.

I understand that a lot of hate may be directed at me now. But what really makes me sad is the people who take this list seriously. I just want to say this: if you played mechanics correctly and showed good performance on logs, it does not matter whether you got into the key by paying gold or through friends. What matters is that you played your role properly and did not violate Blizzard’s rules.

If you face hate because of this list, I am always willing to offer you my key — because you did not break Blizzard’s ToS. Remember that.

The community that maintains these lists is toxic and dishonest.

you are not paying for a chance to time a key. you are paying for timed keys. you are on the list because your 3 +21s and your +20 priory and floodgate were done with known boosters… and there’s no way to tell if they paid gold or money so i don’t know how you got to the conclusion that “all the people on the list paid gold”…

I know many players on this list, and with some of them I had runs that made it into the top 100 in America — and those were not resi keys.

I also know (and I’ll remind you, I play with pugs, so I don’t get as much information as some others) players who actually violated the ToS — the whole bracket knows about them — but they are not on the list.

It’s important to understand that if a player plays the mechanics correctly and doesn’t break the ToS, it doesn’t matter whether they got into the key through friends or were offered to play it for gold.

In my case (I’m a healer), if I hadn’t been able to heal the key, it wouldn’t have been completed no matter what anyone claims — and most likely (I hope) I would have been refunded the gold.

You posted a video doing a key with two known boosters. It’s known that they are a boosting group man, you can contest that it’s unfair or whatever to get ostracized for getting boosted as a solo player in the current key climate. But fact is that it happened, why even lie about it?

Where am I lying? I don’t deny the fact that I paid gold for an invite to a proper group.

Then you probably should be blacklisted lol.

Only people like me are included there—those who found players in LFG with a key and agreed to give gold for an invite. The list doesn’t include people who handed over their accounts or otherwise violated the ToS. Only those who got into a key for gold and played it themselves without any guarantees of success are being smeared. But those who handed over their accounts and just drank coffee while someone else ran the key aren’t on the list, and that says a lot about the people who create and maintain these lists. In any case, I’ve already shared my side of the story earlier in this thread—you’re free to criticize it as you wish.

Well, it’s probably a bit because you are not very likable as well. I’m not a title runner myself this expansion at least my game is competitive raiding, but we have quite a few that partake in my guild and the only reason I know about the list you are talking about is that your behaviors were so well noted that some of them were laughing about experiences they had with you. idk, player pool isn’t exceptionally large RMT is obviously cringe but you could do with being nicer to the people your playing with even if you think they screwed up.
