Is there healing hack going on?

Was doing old AV with an atl and there was this rogue in god mode, he would just jump in a group of 15 people guarding a bunker and kill everyone. His health would drop and promptly move back to full, no healer whatsoever around, literallly soling groups of 10+ people and leaving unscattered.

I dont think he was that equipped, i assumed it was a hack.
Here is the char: aelrroy sargeras

I saw a rogue do the same thing this evening. Same server.

Since health is server-side I sincerely doubt that there is any hacking involving it. Rather I imagine its some sort of abuse of wonky scaling with one of his Azerite gear traits, engineering enhancements(doubt this one), and/or trinkets. But its kinda impossible to tell(as far as my knowledge goes) without testing it or seeing the scaling of the items in game.

Plus some trinkets and enchants, I bet.

Rogue can use that ?

Edit:- It’s not just rogues a lot of twink like gear is working in the old AV. No problems , it all adds to the flavor of that BG

Just because it’s a strength sword doesn’t mean you can’t equip it (remember, you’re scaled to 60, so strength isn’t terrible, just not ideal), and the proc is both common and potent. Pair it with things like the Blood Draining enchant and the Hand of Justice heirloom and you can have quite a bit of self sustain. It’d be better on a DK or warrior, though.

Edit:
The other thing to look at is the character’s belt, Damron’s Belt of Darkness. That’s a fairly potent heal, on top of a lot of versatility, and Outlaw self-heals. No wonder why he’s not flopping easily.

I didnt look at the charachter, should be noted naming players on the forums is not allowed.
They player is probly outlaw, specc gets a few heals, and an ability that increases their heals. Could also be some interesting scaling. I did notice bfa healing potions give alot if health in the bg.

I don’t know about healing to full but he’s got a bunch of socket twink gear on. So he can probably dismantle people quickly.

He has that sword and a stored healing trinket. You factor that with a hp pot(bg or alchemy) and any other item in the game that maybe used outside of that through out the expansions and there u go. Also, the on use items this guy has arn’t scaled properly, Just knowing what works and what hasn’t been scaled is all I can say he’s guilty of but yes his hp is a yo yo for a good few minutes.

My wife and I were in a BG with him. The same thing. Certainly he has maximized his gear for this bracket and was destroying people. However, I saw the same thing with his health just immediately going back up. His number one damage spell was drain life. Not sure what piece of gear he was using to do this. Possibly one of his neck traits.

I’d just like to know how it was done.

Sword enchants.

Yeah he is definitely using the swords from Deathwing, or https://www.wowhead.com/item=50415/bryntroll-the-bone-arbiter

but I imagine its Deathwing, I am totally gonna have to try it out knew those swords would be good for something. Unless of course its another life steal sword but there is not many of those.

Just looked him up, yep, two Soul Drinkers. Plus a bunch of old legendaries. End result is a rogue that is god like. Well played for him finding all of these things.

I just saw that but with a dk horde. he full health 4 times and no healer around. he took on 3 ppl and my catapult burning his behind nonstop.

Its powerful, but I don’t think its meant to heal for that much or proc for that much, perhaps its a static value that doesn’t scale is why?

It scales off 1.7% of your maximum health outside of the battleground, rather than inside. Its scaling off level 120 health.

Yeah I figured out why its op, it works on guards and npcs which hp pools are insanely high in comparison to yours so it heals you for massive amounts, simple fix is to not work against a max hp cap or guards at all or something.

Would not use it now as I think it would fall under the ‘knowingly use exploit clause ‘ and may attract bans.

I sincerely doubt they are gonna ban for using an item that they perfectly allowed just like every other item in a two month anniversary event. If anything it will probably just be quickly hotfixed to not work or be nerfed or something.

This person isn’t really a twink, but has 2 soul drinkers with Gale force enchants on both. The swords shouldn’t be that overpowered for healing and damage against a real timewalking twink. Was able to solo destroy one alliance base tower, along with going against 3 or 4 people up to 5 including me as a prot war.

Shouldn’t be able to throw them on and solo everything. Should be nerfed. Or at least unique equipped. I don’t know if they work in Party sync bg’s, but if they do, then so should my shadowmourne and other equip traits (non azerite).

For pve timewalking, i could care less.
