I think you’re pretty stupid for doing this bug in the first place, since they’ve been smacking people for bug abuse lately. Maybe 10 years ago you’d be ok, but I wouldn’t trust it today.
They can very easily tell who used the bug and who didn’t since there’s an associated achievement that the bug didn’t give you.
They should have just made the mage tower available. It’d be about the same amount of challenge as it was back then, doing it with Antorus gear.
