Timewalking broken/exploits

[Lonarâ-moon-guard]

As somebody who also gets annoyed at twink carries,

eh?

There’s not many of us dood, the vast majority of players enjoy the carry and don’t really like to “experience the gameplay” of walkies, it’s just the facts. Twink players love it for easy token farming, everyone else loves it for faster queues and faster runs, and the complainers (me and op) really need to accept things.

Timewalking is catchup content, the faster the better, it’s neat and all but the “solutions” to this “ProBLeM” would definitely upset more people than make happy.

It is what it is, homie.

But on the note of gold and levelling trading - there is a debuff that blizzard implemented early on in the anniversary event which degrades 99% xp if not more so users barely get any XP - if anything they would be boosting the currency/loot from dungeon. This debuff is persistent within dungeon, if you group with an xp locked character and queue, and will persist for 5 mins after the fact and refreshes with any xp gain.

…No, that debuff’s much older than that – probably from shortly after the time locking XP became available in the first place.

That said, if a twink signs up for a random dungeon with no other party members, the random group they get put into suffers no ill effects – they don’t get the 90% XP penalty for having the misfortune of having a twink happen to end up in their group. Even if the random dungeon group opts to requeue with the twink, they still don’t get the 90% XP penalty in the next dungeon.

The only time that 90% XP penalty applies is if the twink is directly in a party with another character. As long as the other character is in the party and within render distance (and for 5 minutes after leaving the party/render distance), that character has 90% reduced XP gains. It still won’t apply the 90% XP penalty to the other three random dungeon group members if the twink+other character decide to queue up anyway.

Not an exploit. Twinking has been around for a very very very long time and the capabilties that come with it are known and have been known

but no, the characters stay level 10 in full gemmed out purples

If you’re trying to prove a point, stop lying, or, you know, do 3 seconds of research.

You’ve said this line multiple times in multiple posts.

Ive got four decked out twinks… im making this post on one of them.

No twink is in “full gemmed out purples”

1. at lvl 10-12 there’s no class that has socketed gear available for every gear slot… maybe roughly half you gear will have sockets available.

2. at lvl 10-12 there’s no class that has purple/epic gear available for every slot… not even close. Look up any twink who knows what he’s doing… 95% of his gear is probably blue/rare quality. He might even have a green or two.

3. i do get what you’re saying… yes twinks put extra effort into getting BiS gear for their toons… you know what? So does the average 80 player… we just do it at lvl 10/11 instead of 80… and you know why?

Because Blizzard told us we could and even created a way in-game to freeze toons at any lvl you want for the purpose of creating geared twinks. Its literally endorsed by the makers of WoW.
