Roll them back boys, roll them back.
I "missed" that "opportunity" and given alone that these potions cost 5 service medals each, I would not have tried that.But since I have to many alts myself I can totally see why something like this would be exploited as heck.Instead of banning players, Blizzard should fix the underlying problem already.But they apparently just do not get it.For amyone who went thru the content again, leveling an alt hardly offers any depth.I have all the loremaster AVs on my main, going a different route with the next alt is not even an option for me.It is not that the content is bad by itself, there are a gazillion things to do - and then some.Instead of making leveling alts faster, they make leveling slower altogether and even less rewarding as anthing in a zone automaticallykeeps up with you now making sure you will not feel any stronger.This is Blizzard, subtle changes are not good enough, they have to overdo it.I hated leveling alts in Legion, I hate leveling alts in BfA.The way all this execellent content is seemingly supposed to be experienced now is to just blast thru it, even for the first time,How I would fix it, you ask?By making heirloom armor stronger and with at least double the XP bonus, more like 5 times per piece to counter the changes in Legion.Probably add more slots..And definately by dropping any NPC scaling to players item level - but not changing anything else.I also would make heirlooms available that scale to max level as soon as a char on a account reached that level, maybe up to four weeks into a new expansion but not any later.This would make it a players choice.
Woot bullet dodged, tho I wasn't greedy about it only used 2 at a time and was doing pet battle dailies. I also logged as soon as the fix was announced.
They won't hit people hard for it, because it's their blunder.
100% sure the people complaining were banned. "omg I'm exploiting but blizzard put it in the game so it must be okey, QQ"
The funniest part about this is that the Draught exploit worked exactly the same way as how lightblood did for Agatha in mage tower. Do they not actually fix the underlying system of how this happened and instead did a patch fix of the item itself (prevent duplicate spellIDs from potion consumables, rather selectively prevent the specific spellID of the Draught from stacking).What sad coding. The funniest part is how people were doing this knowing they would get banned and not caring if they did. That’s the best part. Like they wanted an excuse to not play this joke of an expansion. That shows a culture problem between the players and blizzard. Something that needs to be amended if there is to be a consensus and harmony in the overal community.
I entirely disagree. You do not pay a subscription fee to enter a super market. I also agree that it wasn't a 'proper' thing to do, but banning people for what is their own enormous blunder, is ludicrous. I mean, at least the bans are temporary. In all honesty, I generally don't see the problem unless someone was actively power leveling like a dozen alts.You would need a tremendous amount of marks/badges to have that number of potions, regardless. They are very finite. Sure, people moaning about being banned are babies, but Blizzard are babies for throwing out those bans on players who just got a bit of extra XP out of their shoddy coding. I enjoy levelling. I enjoyed this temporary 'bug'. I love the whole game and I'll play it as it's coded. ;< You know, given the limited amount of intellect some players display, it's entirely possible someone happened upon this by accident, didn't consider it to be a bug, and went for it, who may now be serving a ban time.In all honesty though, getting banned for a few days is nothing. Even they're not taking it overly seriously because they've only had time to ban a few people, and the punishment is minor. They're literally doing what they always do. Pandering.They're making examples of a few people so the self-righteous ingrates are appeased, and they're not taking it far enough to annoy all of those who used the exploit. Typical Blizz. Just for the record, I haven't been banned. Just sitting back and laughing at the abundant amount of hypocrisy as per usual. I imagine there'll also be a large number of people hitting themselves, thinking, 'why didn't I get in on that'? I imagine for some people, a 2-3 day ban is worth one max level character when we take time meets money expenditure into account.
i was person who reportem every person who had more of these pots.. do i feel quilty - no - you abused visible bug and are surprised about being punished for it*pikachu surprise face*
How should someone know that this is an exploit the potion doesnt tell you that its not stackable in my opinion this is a Blizzard fail
Everytime Blizz swings the Banhammer there are those who think that's unfair.This was clearly a bug. As soon as you take the second potion you know that. (Why do you even try a second)So.. if you do that repeatedly, you are exploiting.If it is now your point, that such stupidity should go unpunished, you have more severe problems than WoW.
blizzard make mistakes all the time its the players fault to abuse it
That was a bug? I thought that's a feature. Kinda stupid to ban people for using items from their bags.
In my opinion, the potion SHOULD be stack-able. You're spending tokens that you earn once a day per character. It takes time to grind that out. I know 5 isn't a huge amount of time. But I feel it would make a good change to be able to afford to stack the potion for further benefits in EXP, maybe not the stat bonus.
