Was it a glitch that it shut down after 119 guilds? The last guild to get Hall of Fame was Temerity from my server, Hyjal. Normally, the HoF would cut off on Tuesday.
I thought it was only first 100?
I thought it was the first 200. It stopped at 119 friday… allegedly
It’s typically every guild that kills it the reset of the 200th kill, Nerub ar palace was one extra reset because the 200th kill was late on a Monday evening.
So it’s usually 50-80 more than 200 guilds.

Then im sure something just broke and they’ll fix it
Maybe they’ll rework raid lockouts, since people are card swiping to buy lockouts so much now that they need to pause HoF.
At least that’s one theory from the WoWHead comments.
The only reason that happens is because gallywix is SIGNIFICANTLY easier than any of the 3 bosses before it.
If the raid had an actual difficulty progression this wouldn’t be a problem.

Still sounds like a content accessibility problem, if people are trying to P2W instead of playing properly around content to the point its leaderboard needs to be shut down. Regardless of how easy or hard each boss is.
Or we can just have hard end bosses again and people won’t see a 7/8 Lockout as free hall of fame.

that’s the thing about current wow playerbase though. if blizzard even accidentally creates easier content it cannot be reverted or the whining is incessant.

I wouldn’t be surprised even if they did that, guilds would still buy lockouts, because of the underlying accessibility issue with lockout design.
Still easier to prog 1 boss instead of 8.
Well guilds weren’t buying lockouts prior to LOU, so I don’t see why that’d be the case.
The only reason anyone is buying 7/8M lockouts for their guild is they know they can knock Gallywix out in 2~ nights even as a below HoF level guild.
Meanwhile typical end bosses are 2-3 weeks of progress.
Guild that leapfrogged from Ovi’nax to Ansurek managed to kill it with 787 pulls interestingly enough.
No Ky’veza or Silken Court.
More CE world last level, but as a guild that skipped bosses.
Bet they’re such an anomaly though.
Yeah like you might see one or two, but never this early.
Well, we now know what changed, and it nipped this in the bud.
In case anyone missed the context: Hall of Fame for LoU now requires One-Armed Bandit and Mug’zee kills, in addition to Gallywix.

Oh that’s a good change. HoF is guild not player based so being out for XYZ boss doesn’t influence it.
I wonder if it’s going to be retroactively applied.
