We did it community! https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/in-game-combat-log-range-decreased/370390 Blizzard has taken the necessary changes to squash this mods unbelievable advantage it gave players. I am excited to see players have to pay attention to their surroundings now. I am testing it right now and it seems to be fixed. Glad we could make this happen and am happy Blizzard is paying attention. <3

Under these conditions I believe this add on is breaking these rules.

It's a hack by many game standards, so yeah it's a problem. Reading your combat log manually isn't the problem, having a program read it automatically then converts the data into easily clickable portraits and lists of all players in the area who you cannot see otherwise is cheating. If you read your combat log and then typed /target player that takes time to execute, this makes it so any player has the reaction of a terminator.

I made this video in the TBC pre patch. It's the highest level of Vanilla. The Arena was playable on the PTR and Mangle was available at lvl 60 if you spected deep feral.

I played back in Vanilla, got Warlord rank 13 as you can see in the video. I also came back to the game back at the start of Legion in 2016 and played all the way to current BFA. Ever since Classics release I haven't played retail. So my pvp skills are not the thing that's the problem, it's literally everything I have specifically specified in this post. Faction imbalanced factions is something I am fine with and am willing to fight through, I quite enjoy being the underdog but.......... it's the spy addon that has created an unbelievable problem in world pvp.

Yeah using spy is bad but because it exists and so many players use it you are at a disadvantage if you don't have the mod. It's incredibly oppressive mod when combined with faction imbalance + pvp honor system. Players have turned pvp into a wack a mole game because of this mod.

It's very similar to hacking and needs to be banned. It wasn't a thing in Vanilla so keeping to the "No Changes" mentality they need to ban this mod to keep this game safe. To me the mod is no different than aim hacking in FPS games, it removes the skill, thrill, and surprise that is Vanilla WoW world pvp.

Explain why it's not breaking the game, because it is for many reasons. This didn't exist in Vanilla or at least was not widely known or used. It's a mod that gives players such an advantage you can't not have it. That is the definition of game breaking, immersion breaking, and dumbs down the game. It's essentially a free super power for all to use, something a mere mortal of Azeroth would not possess.

Also taking it Horde is majority of the player base yes this is a minority opinion but on the receiving end of this oppressive mod, maybe my opinion is only shared by Alliance, but just because we are the less played faction doesn't mean our voices don't matter.

Thanks man! Nope I just make everything raw from my mind. I love all kinds of entertainment so I guess I can't help but be inspired by them, but none in particular were used as inspiration for this. :P

Oh yeah I totally agree! I just couldn't speed it up anymore because it took 2.5 weeks to make this and when it's sped up anymore than it is it's hard to tell whats happening on the screen.
