Why Is Mists Allowed To Be Addon Solved?

Court of Stars got the private aura treatment after people started using a weakaura to solve the demon spy portion for them.

It’s the same thing with the mists of tirna scithe maze being auto-solved for players with an addon. I’m seeing players take paths without even checking the tree stumps for symbols first.

Sounds like someone doesn’t want their fun detected.

Unless they changed stuff, that’s not possible. Someone still has to input at least a few of the symbols into the WA

They’re not.

Somehow people are having the maze solved for them without doing so. It might be a new WA out there that doesn’t even need said inputs.

Basically no one in the party checks a stump (not once in ANY portion of the maze) and the person with the solver WA is zooming to the correct maze door without any downtime or even time to think.

After doing some research, you are correct. Although, I have to wonder if it’s based on there being a set number of possible paths vs. pulling the data from somewhere since it doesn’t start until the second room.

Well it’s solving for them without ever checking any stump at any point during the maze, so it’s quite broken and mandatory OP.

The maze is a joke.

For the first two “puzzles”, you don’t even have to really do them- just watch where Mistcaller goes and follow.

And the puzzle itself?

Find which of the 4 shapes has a difference the other 3 don’t.

Three might be a leaf, and one a flower, choose the flower.

That’s it.

It’s pattern recognition for babies, lol.

If you’re serious about an advantage here, you’re trolling.

Every second counts.

Having someone auto-ping the correct doors and not have anyone in the party backtrack to check symbols which wastes precious seconds is OP.

To be fair, completely skipping the mechanic will save a good amount of time vs. manually checking all 4 posts.

You’re right, its not hard per se, but it can be huge if you are pushing

Lol people are likely still clearing the adds in the “room” while the puzzle is being done anyway.

Idk, do people run the whole maze first and then clear adds? Can you even do that?

They should definitely nerf the addon. But I doubt they will

Correct it’s not hard. But it allows entire groups to not have to walk over to tree stumps and sit there for a good second checking.

The maze is still the worse part of mist and the only way people have been making it interesting is pulling mobs through walls. Not sure if it’s that weakaura we’re talking about but basically a weakaura can know which route you have after the 2 first rooms which then it auto-solve it and the 2 first rooms can be known because the fae goes through them so you only have to watch where it goes.

These players aren’t even watching that. They’re pinging the correct route before the fae even spawns. While players are walking away from the 1st boss.

Somehow the route is being solved in entirety for players without needing to do anything.

my question is why do you care if others dont want to not deal with the maze?

if your answer is groups you join are doing it, tell them u will leave if they do, or make a group and make sure no one will do it or you will kick them.

No it isn’t.

There’s probably multiple mist solver WAs, and it seems like someone cooked up an even more OP one than the one used during shadowlands.

It’s a full solver that figures out the entire maze route before the “event” even starts when you’re still walking away from 1st boss.

Yeah, It sort of is. I linked the WoWHead article about the addon above.

You just got to clear the second room and then it’ll tell you were to go without checking the posts after that.

It needs the first two solved to predict the next few. Unless there is something brand new I am not aware of. Is the addon you linked doing more than that? You linked a WA not an addon.
