After spending weeks going through the preparation of my character for Wrath of the Lich King Classic I find out on launch that the Dwarven Racial Find Treasure is completely useless in-game since the hotfix has removed all treasure in the Northrend open world and in Northrend dungeons. To be honest I feel as if Blizzard has alienated Dwarves in general by doing this. Yet I will stubbornly still play my beloved Dwarves, though it pains to know that in the original release treasure was available to be found by the most adept adventurers in the deepest and darkest caverns. The racial is nerfed to zero and nothing has been said, let alone done to compensate. I ask, what is the purpose of Find Treasure? Not only does it take away from being able to occasionally find random blues to upgrade an alt, but it also takes away from any RP aspect that has been with the Dwarves since the beginning of their legacy in World of Warcraft. Let me go dive into this deep and mysterious cavern to discover what âtreasuresâ that may be hidden from the naked eye. Oh yeah, there is no treasure. How is that remotely justified to know that your racial had been hit, even though that is not how it was in the original release?
Respectfully,

Sometimes when I run to Headless Horseman in Scarlet Monastery, I see an unlocked chest in the torture room.
Northrend open world and Northrend dungeons. As I mentioned above.
Unfortunately the change was made to combat dwarf rogue bots from stealth farming heroic dungeon chests. It was a huge issue in tbc classic. It does suck that the dwarf rp racial got canned for it though.
The amount of damage Blizzard is willing to do to the game in order to completely avoid actually solving the bot problem is amazing to me.

Bots were a thing back in the day. In fact, they were far worse then than they are today. Blizzard doesnât want to ban a single bot. That is a subscription to them, which means more money lining their pockets.

They have removed the treasures?
Why?
Kind of an extreme change NGLâŠI get the change for BRD but they could at least restore Northrend treasures instead of basically everything related to Find Treasure.
Blizzard is always picking on the little guys.

I think the bot problem at this point is significantly harder to deal with that we even think.
It has to be.
They are very complex and come out of absolutely nowhere.
Iâll not saying blizzard isnât to blame, they are⊠but the botters are likely more intense than ever.
Thatâs the endpoint to the Find Treasure racial is that there is no treasure in Northrend to find with it.
If you can find them go look up videos of bots in OG Wrath. It was far worse. I remember pretty much every day seeing fly hacking botsâŠwall hacking botsâŠthe worst was the ones ground hacking and mining all the nodes in the area of Icecrown as a 65 bot. This is really calm for the number of bots compared to then.
You only think that because the bots arent nearly âin your faceâ like they were back then.
Now they hide in instances, you never ever see them. They get ported from creation into dungeon.
They are FAR more advanced than ever before, i would bet my house on it.

Botting and rmt is way worse than it was the first time around.
You only thought it was worse because you could see them. You will rarely see a modern bot. They are far more advanced than you could even imagine.
Oh and how do you know this Bloomsdaylol? Are you a bot that is part of a bot company. Do tell.
because ive been playing classic this entire time and see how advanced these bots are getting.
They sit in ZG, or DM, or BRD the entire time and just bot away 24 hours a day⊠endlessly. This isnt new news by any means.
Itâs easier to delete stuff than to hire people and pay them money. They justify it by saying only small niches of the player base enjoy or do certain things in the game, but the thing is, if you keep going down that path it becomes more and more things that are changed and before you know it half the game is missing.

So you never played Original Wrath? Bots have been a thing for over a decade. Not hard to spot and even when reported they never get banned as it is. Have reported thousands over the last decade of game play.
People were screaming how op racials were. Just thonk of all the treasure that was found in av
