Just did my first run on my warrior … no NPCs spawned because we had a single Alliance player in the group.
Maaaaay wanna fix this before it becomes a massive exploit?
Edit: Might be time to hotfix this, folks are actively trying to game the system by cross-grouping via RealID to speedrun the event.
And I’m getting heartily sick of eating 15 minute deserter debuffs for leaving these groups because I don’t want to risk my account getting banned for exploiting.
Seeing this a lot today. It’s hard to get into bg that doesn’t have this. I look forward to comp stomp every cycle and this is making me nervous.
How is this an exploit?
the npcs don’t provide honor when killed normally. How many times have you ever lost a PVP Brawl: Comp Stomp?
The problem lies in that we get honor, conquest and tokens.
All of these can be used towards progression.
Ergo, it is an exploit, according to what I’ve encountered with Blizzard before. So that means that if you queue up and have no way of knowing you’re joining a mixed group that will cause the bug, and you do the battleground, you have benefitted from the bug.
Blizzard has blanket-banned accounts for less, and like Backspin, I really rely upon this event. For me, the Comp Stomp Event is my best chance to get Honor Tokens for transmog because I have crushed tendons in my hands, and competing in normal PvP is not only difficult but physically painful for me.
Eating a 15 minute deserter debuff, going back in, and then having to do it all over again, is not fun.
All they have to do is turn off merc mode until they can actually fix it.
didnt seem to hurt typing all this out
