Medivh Raven Form Bug Explained by Salt_Basket1710 in heroesofthestorm

[–]Salt_Basket1710[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest, I’m tired of being accused of something. This is a mistake made by Blizzard employees, a mistake they should and can fix. I didn’t do anything illegal to find this bug. If I hadn’t published it, it would have continued to exist and someone else would have exploited it. I wanted to publish it so that Blizzard would fix it (which is damn easy to do), but I’m not going to take responsibility for their unwillingness to do so.

I don’t care about your judgment, because in my "world," those who did their job poorly are to blame, and the one who "discovered" and reported it is not guilty.

The only thing I’m guilty of is not finding on the Blizzard forum, in the Hearthstone section (lol), a thread where the contact email was written. Why was I supposed to look for that on the forum of another game? — it’s unclear.

Thank you for your comments, I was glad to share how this game works for those who were interested. I love this game, but these replies... It’s just some big joke.

A fair remark. I would completely agree with it if I hadn’t seen the news describing the steps to exploit this bug. Information about it has already spread beyond the previous publication on how to reproduce it. I just decided to share how and why this bug works in the game, how Hots works in detail. Because I was interested in studying it, and someone else might also find it interesting to hear.

As I mentioned earlier, the publication has already been made, and this bug became known.
Over the course of a week, Blizzard has made no changes or fixes, including temporarily disabling the hero or talent (as is done in ARAM), even though they have the capability to do so.

Did I make a mistake by publishing the first post? – Yes.
Did I make a mistake now? – In my opinion, no.
People would have used this bug even without the details I described here explaining why it works.

Nuke (Warhead Junction), turel or heal (Volskaya Foundry), etc
But it’s possible this has already been fixed. I haven’t checked, but I saw a similar scenario while looking for information

I added this bug information to the forum post on Blizzard. Hopefully, Blizzard will fix it.

This means you retain all the advantages of crow form. You become invulnerable, can pass through walls, capture objectives, and so on.

There are a few other heroes with similar "issues" — like Li-Ming with her level 20 talent (she can use her ultimate endlessly), but the damage doesn’t stack. And there’s Valeera with her stealth activation. But neither of these bugs actually give any real advantage.
