Grats for the world first Exorsus. Totally deserved after all these scramblings with Serenity and Method. The only thing I am sad about, is how horribly boring Exorsus world first xavius video was. I've been watching world first kill videos since Ragnaros HC 25 by Paragon (And see LK 25 HC), and I've got to say, that Exorsus WF Xavius was the first video I just stopped watching due to downright boredom and horrible music choice. My opinion though.
So --
Hope Serenity and Method are raiding right now, huh
Sure. The thing is that there is nothing to speculate about, since Blizzard is monitoring WF kills , any exploit would be easy to determine on their side and nothing has happened. The suggested exploit in this thread is not even in a gray-zone and the response from Blizzard would be immidiate

Erm, if this is the case and it was used, that definitely crosses over the line of clever use of game mechanics and will be something that needs to be addressed. But given that they were in the running for WF and must have understood they would be held under harsh scrutiny, I can't imagine why they would even bother using it since it would obviously be punished. Perhaps they're under the impression that even bad publicity is good publicity? Or maybe they're just Russian? I guess we'll find out soon enough.
I got the protection warrior gloves and every now and then the buff will stay up after I swap them, now given the nature of the bonus I'll never know if it is actually active or just a visual bug, so there is at least two items in the game that behaves this way, so unless there are multiple people with this buff up, even those for whom the trinket is not good, then no, I don't think they are going to be punished.

If we can assume that the twitter account is handled with dev approval, they seem to think it was legitimate.

Also I keep trying to do it with zoning into the instance while being in combat and sometimes the buff stays for a few second after zoning in, but it doesn't let me swap the trinket until the buff is off, and it never stays for more than a few seconds.
but keep in mind, he does say " no reason for them to believe otherwise " but with enough pressure they'll check into it more i'm sure. So congrats to them for killing it in 150 less post.
