Yes, they did
Thanks. The fact that both Limit and Echo used it, kinda makes the argument null. Now they are both on the final boss and we can see who wins out.
If Blizz had a problem with the strat they probably would've despawned the boss before the kill, they've done that before when a guild was close to killing a Mythic Raid boss that wasn't working properly.
Considering how buggy 9.1 has been, I don't think anything, up to and including finding a way to teleport the Jailer into the raid and have him one shot a boss by imputing the Konami Code in the BFA Turtle Mini Game, should be considered an "Exploit". Nice kill by Echo!
Unless I am wrong, that trinket actually triggers a brez CD when used. If that's the case then HOW is this an exploit? Anyone with taunt ability can taunt the boss anytime during the encounter even without that trinket, die and get brez'd. Would that also be called an "exploit"? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
So does Kel'thuzad have any meaningful lore bits or speech? Or is he just an idiot tank & spank, Hogger level writing dude?
We knew it would be good, but it 100% requires Windfury. Without WFT, you would be Fury.
The LFR experts at it again, upset that Echo thought of something that Limit didn't. Blizz dictates what's allowed and what isn't and as several people have said already GM's watch these fights to make sure that you don't have a repeat of Nzoth which Limit almost nuked down in the portal phase because the boss did no damage so they despawned the boss...they could have very easily done that again with KT if they thought that Echo was "exploiting", but they didn't. If anything, Blizz should have thought of this, so that the second to last boss isn't a 20pulls kill...Fatescribe was also 11pulls for Echo, again, the fights are just undertuned.
Whats this so called ''exploit'' all about? Ive seen some comments but i have no clue about whats going on. Anyone care to explain ?
Salts from NA is so delicious. A kill is a kill unless it's a clear exploit like Helya.
Limit will still likely win the race, they are objectively the better guild. I am very excited that Method and BDGG are competitive as well, Pieces is also close. Next tier likely will be a race between 4+ guilds which will be super fun to watch.
Does no one remember when Method threw a huge fit over Exorsus doing the EXACT same thing on Worlds First Helya (that they still claim, even though Blizzard reinstated it to Exorsus), and getting it over turned? So by their own standards, considering a lot of these people are ex-Method members, that battle rezzing tanks to break mechanics, is an exploit to them.
Three bosses have been "clever use of mechanics" killed now. Race is a joke, PTR is useless if they don't fix things. The Trinket is supposed to eat a Battle Res. It's being hot fixed Tuesday. Monks are not supposed to SOLO THE ADDS on the chains boss. Echo and Limit are both no longer in the running for world first, I'll be happy to see a non exploiting guild win.
22 vs 71 Pulls clearly shows which Guild is Better
