XP reduced debuff needs to be treated as exploitation. Ban them already

XP reduced debuff is ruining levelling BGs. Multiple times I join a battleground and I see multiple people with the same XP reduced debuff who ruin the bgs.

Want proof? see below.

Also heres how to do it (because Blizzard isnt policing it). Get into a group. One player has exp off and causes the rest of the group to get the debuff. (go into a dungeon) then that player leaves while the rest of the group keeps the debuff. Then they que random BG. if its not an exploit and blizzard is happy with it then I shouldn’t be banned for revealing the exploit right?

Thanks

They link to screenshots of the XP DEBUFF exploit in action. Nothing more. Nothing malicious. Just showing exploitation at its finest.

It obviously is an exploit but it doesn’t rise to the level of unsanctioned scripting or intrusive third party software. It shouldn’t be a bannable offense- Blizzard should just pull their collective head out of their collective rear end and patch it… but don’t hold your breath.

why are you still level 20?
you dont have to have the anchor leave the group that toon just doesn’t accept the bg pop.

you’re starting to smell like a player who makes 20’s mad someone is out twinking them.

Nah its just the default it always posts as. I can post as my levelling character if you prefer?

You’ve complained ab this for a while on your continual level 20

Besides, if you wanted to kill them just get better gear

As I said. I dont play this character.

Heres another pathetic player:

Woah woah that toon has 5k hks at level 20

You don’t get 5k hks going from 10-20 (or 20-40 in pre-SL scaling)

I also see a deadman’s hand an an EF enchant, with EF being overpowered for an expansion or two now.

Seems as though you might be using the debuff too

Lmao, also, you’re playing a hunter in a low level bracket that’s overgeared. We can see that you did double digits in kbs

I’m understanding this post more now. Someone with more gear than you gave you some trouble on your heirloom steamroll burner toon and you got upset about it.

As you can clearly see… I have no debuff.

Also note the HEIRLOOM LEVEL buff that I had currently active on my character. I dont cheat to win.

I dont mind losing or facing against equal opponents. I have lost many fights 1v1 against players like me (full heirloom’d). I just dont like people who gear up out of the wazoo and exploit to stay relevant rather than levelling out the bracket. Its cheating. Get over it Mk.

Also nice that you reported my post because it does not agree with your idea and is showing people using the exploit? Scared im going to SS you doing it ?
Ha, pathetic.

Lets be fair, playing a low level hunter isn’t a sign of any type of skill.

But if you aren’t bugging to be there, then you deserve to be there. People who exploit the system need to be dealt with appropriately.

Oh I agree, Hunter’s are OP. They should be tweeked to bring them to an appropriate level in the lower brackets. But I dont cheat to be in the battleground.

The point isn’t if OP is a twink or not. Don’t change the argument. The point is there are exploiters ransacking low levels bgs. They are using unintended methods to avoid EXP gain. It does not matter who they are cheating against, only that they ARE cheating.

I didn’t report, I don’t like it, but I wouldn’t report. It’s annoying when posts start getting removed. Happened to me as well, the other day in the thread you were raging in.

Full heirlooms = Equal? I’d bet the new players don’t feel that way.

Yeah I agree, remove heirlooms.

No, because as I’ve mentioned before, I don’t use the exploit. I can post on one of the toons that I have non-exp locked at level 32, who was fully geared by making ~200gold purchase from the cata valor vendors and gemmed using marks of honor that I gain from said cheesing. I’ve said this before to multiple people in this thread within other threads.

I will keep leveling toons to the bracket I want, overgear them, and continue to cheese people until I outlevel the bracket. At that point, the toon will be non-exploit locked at 29/39/49 to become a true twink or it will be deleted.

The reason I say something on these threads, is because it comes back to the same thing: you’re mad because someone outgeared you on your overgeared leveling toon and you want to do the same thing I do, which is cheese people less geared than me.

I’ll read after you fix your quote.

Hey man I’m on a phone :stuck_out_tongue:

Heirlooms aren’t crazy strong. Boxes you get in games typically have higher ilvl gear. Heirlooms don’t bring an ilvl that would only be required from achieving outside of a BG.

Please do

Not true. People are mad people are actively abusing the system. Anyone who outgears me while being XP on and on the same progression path I am is fair game.

I’m against exploiters and people who are not intended to be where they are.

And please don’t show up on Mkr.

Second edit, yes its Mkr showing up.

we did this the other day. This is the same rogue we talked about the other day; I actually found the valor vendor this week. 200g investment for the blues, a couple dungeons around 25-30, and wha-la, a toon that will stomp for 9 levels.

Here’s Mkd as well, geared in the same way.

Reason I said don’t bring Mkr because as soon as I posted, I remembered Mkr and having basically this same discussion.

And like I said, I’m perfectly fine with people who are in XP on while being XP on.

I’m against exploiters, this thread is against exploiters. This isn’t a debate whether twinks should be allowed in XP on. Blizzard made a decision to seperate, it’s the people who abuse the system and are being where they aren’t supposed to be.
