    Lightbulb Warning: warcraftlogs - logs with bugged Vendetta

    Just wanted to tell you all, that many logs are faked / manipulated at the moment. For example look at the #2 rogue for nythendra:
    Its a 4:20~ fight length and he uses vendetta 9 times (lol) - with an uptime of 95%

    https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports...&ability=79140

    This results in a lower iLvl % performance for all the normal (non-cheating) players.

    Possible not fake. There is/was a bug with vendetta that made its cooldown very low

    I cant connect to US server... maybe someone can contact that guy? Would be really interessting what happened there...

    There was a bug with Vendetta relics reducing CD of vendetta by 90s instead of 9s or something similar. It was fixed very fast, but still some logs got out.

    As 'sensational' as the title of this thread is, it really should be 'Possible bug/exploit with rogues on warcraftlogs', not making it sound like the page is littered with falsified reports.

    Just tweet at @KihraOfTemerity or post on forums and the uploader/guild will be banned off the site if they are manipulating the log.

    If it's an exploit you can report the exploit and he will make sure everyone who uses the exploit will be unable to rank.

    I think there exists some kind of encryption. Its not that easy. But still: This doesnt mean its impossible to manipulate em. What bothers me more, is the pure ignorance of the website owner (he earns 7000$ / each month with patreon and does not react). I even made a forum post on the warcraftlogs forum. No response. Seems like hes just ignoring it.

    His job would be, to wipe the rogue logs completely before next ID (thats the only way to fix this imo).

    There's currently a 24s CD Vendetta bug in play, i've seen 2 cases of it. One in the Rogue Discord where someone had posted a screenshot of it, and in a Heroic Nythendra where the top Rogue had beaten me by 181k with a 2ilvl difference between us. I've made a forum about this problem on both the Rogue / Bug page on the battle.net forum, PLEASE get more attention to this. It's currently tilted "24s CD Vendetta", the logs are posted on both of them if you want to examine it for yourselves.

    Seriously, if I was you and would get that much money every month I would react the same way... I mean - as long as the stupid crowd keeps on paying me for doing nothing and not reacting to people reporting problems - who cares? good job man - good job

    you do realize logs are being reset with NH, right? Or, if i'm wrong(and kihra is the one who knows for sure), it still doesn't change the fact that this past week is pointless as far as logs in EN/HoV go.

    The bug has been fixed, and logs going forward should be largely without bugs that affect your butthurt.

    You realize that money is not profit right? WCL is not a cheap site to run from a purely hardware standpoint. Storage costs, bandwidth costs, processors, etc all adds up. He's not making a $7k/mo killing on the site.. as far as I know, he still works his normal day job with WCL supplementing because it doesn't support him full time yet.

    There was a time he was going to shut it down because (at that time, before it got as popular as it is now) the costs were somewhere north of $5k /mo.
