On Shadowstrike server these annoying low level alliance have been abusing the homunculus in gadgetzan, if they see you anywhere in gadgetzan you are going to die straight away, many of us can’t even get to the quest givers as the guards become hostile and attack us, they also stay here for hours and hours doing it nonstop every day, had to go quest elsewhere.
Homunculus alone perfectly exemplifies the apparent attitude of the development team and how they don’t seem to care about their game. Cool idea, ludicrously overpowered, and a ludicrous number of bugs and exploit possibilities that never seem to get addressed.
I don’t know how this hasn’t been fixed yet. I was sure after we spent so long in Booty Bay p2 they would have changed this.
Eh, for all the problems it causes, I’d still prefer Blizzard tinker with some absolutely broken new mechanics rather than play it safe and make only boring, minor adjustments.
Priest:
- Homunculus Rune now changed to require level 25
Developer Note: This should reduce the number of players abusing the issue of the Homunculus attacking and causing the other player to become hostile to neutral guards. We understand it’s not a permanent fix, but we’re busy with Cata. We’ll get to fixing it when we get to it.
((Note: Not an actual snippet from a patch note…yet.))
I think I would too and I guess that’s why you and I still play.
How is it abuse if it’s an in game mechanic? Isn’t that just “PVP happening on a PVP server?” I watched a lvl 9 doing it in Ash. It’s hilarious.
That’s hilarious. I want to try it
They did address it. Last phase they made it uncastable anywhere in booty bay and the outside area of gnomeregan lol.
Priest are always abusing something
Best it be the Homunculi
Yes, but it keeps happening
the dogmatic rules of a bygone era continue to haunt us
I guess people know how low levels feel now being camped by high levels. PvP on a PvP server .... get your buddies to kill them or something /shrug
