WoW Classic Hotfix -- Raid Party XP Bug

I think they knew about it, but wanted to exploit it.

It was reported in beta and they decided not to fix it. Honestly I think the devs really were in on the leveling.

So everyone who used this as a means to level faster still gets to keep the xp? How is that in anyway fair Kaivax?

Sure players tested it but they should have internal tests to verify and fix.

Yep and I and others suggest that maybe they wanted it broken to help them level their characters.

So their logic is to put a lock on the bank AFTER it’s been robbed (not before), and not bother going after anyone that robbed it.

Then those “World first” would be stripped and alots of streamers would be down graded cant have that.

Much like the layering leveling abuse.

Honestly after that comment from the dev saying that they wouldnt put the unarmored epic mount in because it would interfere with him playing with his gf. I think the chances that they left it in to help themselves level is pretty high.

The glitch was only allowing players to save about a half hour per level.

half an hour x 60 levels = 30 hours.

Sounds about right huh!?

Running a Dungeon, Literally 2x as fast, is only 30 mins per level? K lol.

All of us level 30s are feeling the punch to the gut, and reminding ourselves that we are still level 30 when we could’ve easily been 40 doesn’t make us feel better. We feel cheated that beta testers and streamers abused this exploit only known to certain circles of people, and now we have to work harder to catch up.

Every person who knowingly abused it should have the levels adjusted period.

Honestly they knowingly broke the ToS. How about an account ban.

It would be easier and better PR to leave in the exploit to allow anyone to power level with raids, not just the few circles of people who were aware of the cheat. That would even the playing field for everyone without having to debate which people were actually aware of the exploit.

Why are so many of you calling for rollbacks? They still would have beat you to 60 days before most of us. Who cares if they did it a little faster. What they did or do does not affect you in the slightest. Stop wanting to tear down others.

Cheaters should be punished. seems simple to anyone.

I’m sorry if you thought that playing a 15 year old game was going to put you on a level playing field with everyone. There will always be someone who does something better than you. If you can’t still enjoy the ride than this is a great time to quit.
