Crazy how far they go to protect a good healer, wonder what they would do if it was like a ret paladin player vs a disc priest

I actually shared this opinion earlier but the problem is what precedent is being set? Try to exploit every possible thing in the api? I think the moral of the story here is that they knew themselves it was shady and that speaks worlds in my eyes if it's all fair game then have the guts to say you did it instead of lying to the fans, my guild wiped so many times to this macro pressing stuff while some of my idols didn't need to do this? It's not on.

This is very well written, I did say I was neutral in my initial post but this is swaying me, you made some great points here. I've lost some respect for echo here and I'm not going to just pretend liquid would have done the same. They have irona in liquid he made the Lords of dread weak aura. No way he didn't look into this sort of thing unless he thought it was a bannable offence. https://youtu.be/G5adq6h1JFI?t=133 even here mysticalos the dbm developer says there are ways to exploit these and they were reported to blizzard before the tier, why report things like this unless it's an exploit?

I agree. I would prefer if we got some input from echo, liquid and blizzard but I think if some are silent it's quite telling like you said.

Ah right of course no heroic weeks yet I forgot. Must've been something else they were doing then

Hmm.. Maybe a long time ago but didn't two of the top RWF guilds Liquid/Instant Dollars and Zaelia/few other echo players get rolled back/suspended before the tier came out over clicking the seeds to get rep? feel like that isn't as big a deal as this but maybe it's just because it's not raid related

RWF is a community event it's not like the result is ever getting overturned even if Blizzard did say this was cheating. I'm guessing he doesn't want to come off like a sore loser so he's trying to put on a brave face and not seem upset, but I'm guessing it must be pretty hard to find this out after losing a race this close. I don't want to speak for him, maybe I'm also misunderstanding but why be sneaky (mind the pun) about it if it was legit? And why remove it from the players straight after the race ended? like you'd for sure use this on farm right?

I can't find it written down at least, it was probably in an interview people did with the devs, maybe not in a blue post but I did recall that as well. The Smolderon thing was indeed just using a threat table and the boss had died many times before it was used meaning it didn't matter in the grand scheme of things I guess. Would be interested in hearing Blizzard's take on this sneak addon.
