I didn’t say they weren’t. I explained why a crowd incentivizes more grouping.
LOL surely you’re joking? People are battling over nodes as if this was still full of multi-tap mobs and when you try to invite them, they run as if you just pinched their butt.
These declarations of absolutes are staggering.
Except it’s actually not. They’re phasing it out soon.
Layering is going away, so no need to worry about that.
Eh… Blizz put layering in, so it’s not really an exploit.
If it’s already not an exploit…
Hate to say it, but you might be on your way out the door. They aren’t going to (and shouldn’t) punish the “offenders” as you’ve labeled them, because they haven’t really done anything wrong.
Google “Ensidia Ban” and read any of the first results.
Blizz put Saronite Bombs in the game…guess Blizz wouldn’t ban anyone for using them to cheese boss mechanic…oh wait. They did. And they took away their loot.
I feel the same way as you about this, layering was bad, and I even questioned subbing in the first place with it, and now the layer exploits still aren’t fixed either. I will probably discontinue subbing on all 3 of my accounts if nothing is done about that. The Rules are the rules for a reason, they have been upheld in every other case where a bug was being exploited, so what is the difference in this case?
They are right. Blizzard has usually taken the stance that creative use of in-game mechanics that were intentionally added are not a violation. It is when you exploit unintentional additions or holes that it is against TOS.
Them “re-adding” unintentional bugs back into classic(due to the butterfly effect in wow) is irrelevant and honestly a funny “retort” if you can even call it that.
They completely messed up here. The economy is going to be in the toilet, at this point you either abuse the exploit in order to have your own supply of everything…or get left behind. For those of you saying they will remove layering by phase two…that’s 3-6 months from now and by then people will literally have gold cap amounts of resources.
