BROKEN - Hand of justice gives Paladins windfury

Its shamans too, I had a shaman hit me 4 times in one swing timer event and 2 of them crit I lost 2600 hp in 3 sec. Checked my combat log and it was all melee damage.

Hand of justice huh giving two extra swings versus one is normal vanilla behavior?

It is happening with all extra attacks across all classes. Could you create a Shaman only thread so the masses no longer think its horde targeting the alliance - and that its an actual issue?

Funny how 99% of the people defending this exploit are Paladins.

Well actually i discovered some information specific to paladins and rek charges.

You still certain this is vanilla era behaviour?

dude, you don’t wanna go up against me on Vanilla/Classic Reckoning mechanics lol

FYI that “blue” post that you linked, wasn’t written by a Blizzard dev - it was written by a player named Baconn - and he replied back to me just over a year ago on the forums here:

“Normally if you’re sitting down you would not get Reckoning charges from auto-attacks. However, you could gain charges from random NPCs by constantly sitting and standing up due to server lag: mob would try to attack you as your were sitting, so it’d be a forced crit. However, if you stood up just as you were getting hit, the server would see you as if you were standing and get a Reckoning charge.”

TLDR - Spell Batching says Hold my Beer…

Yes i do.

They changed it to specifically not work for Classic.

All you did was find a workaround from their change - otherwise known as an exploit.

Creative use of game mechanics

Seal Twisting also says Hold my Beer

PS They changed it so you couldn’t mash X on Classic as was the case on Private servers, none of which had spell batching ever enabled.

YUGE DIFFERENCE MY DUDE

Wait - you mean to link me evidence of vanilla era things (2004-2006) working as intended that contain combat parses and video footage from 2008? Really?

20:53′52.859 Faptamerica gains Seal of Command

20:53′54.546 Faptamerica’s Seal of Command hits Brutallus for 1661 Holy damage
20:53′54.546 Faptamerica’s Swing hits Brutallus for 1393 Physical damage (glancing)

20:53′55.687 Faptamerica’s Seal of Blood hits Brutallus for 633 Holy damage (201 resisted)

Oh and thank you for the evidence proving that extra attacks in 2008 did not happen instantly.

20:53′54.093 Faptamerica gains 1 Attack from Windfury Attack
20:53′54.093 Faptamerica’s Swing hits Brutallus for 1166 Physical damage (glancing)
and then
20:53′54.453 Faptamerica gains Windfury Attack
20:53′54.546 Faptamerica’s Swing hits Brutallus for 1393 Physical damage (glancing)

Clearly a full .5 second later and only 1 attack granted not 2

Show me some real evidence that this extra attack bug happened in 2004-2006 the way its happening now. This proc also happened .01 second after gasining the buff, not .5.

20:52:16 is the melee attack that granted the wf proc (2 extra attacks)
20:52:17 windfury instant
20:52:17 windfury instant
20:52:17 one of those extra attacks granted a hoj proc (1 attack)
20:52:17 hoj instant
20:52:17 explain this one

it’s evidence of SPELL BATCHING - which is what the devs added in for Classic

Spell batching on a .4 rotation. Correct.
The pic i linked is from Classic - with procs happeneing at .01 - no spell batching because people are exploiting it

Yeah, which is exactly the problem. They added a retail version of spell batching into a classic game. A huge change. #nochanges. This bug must be fixed to be in line with vanilla.

lolwut?!?

spell batching has been completely removed for all intent and purpose from the retail version of WoW…

Spell batching aside.

This behavious also applies to a paladins rek extra attack - granting not 1 but 2 instants

you said that using Spell Batching to gain Reck charges was an exploit - my rebuttal was that never mind the fact that there is video evidence of it being possible, but that Seal Twisting also followed the exact same functionality by using Spell Batching in order to have 2 Seals proc off of the same white swing and off of each other.

Rek charges? exploiting the stop/start macro GENERATES AN ADDITIONL HIT KEEP IGNORING IT.

Does it cause those 2 seals to GENERATE AN ADDITIONAL PROC OF EACH

dude, you brought Reckoning into the conversation needlessly here lol

and your evidence was soundly debunked by my retorts because unlike you, I actually spoke with the author of the “blue” post as well as the original Vanilla WoW class designer, Kevin Jordan where we talk about Seal Twisting among many other subjects regarding Paladins:
