IF you in fact have so many friends that you can make raids for it and just kill the bosses all over the place until your drop drops - then you are in fact just popular and not exploiting, right?

That's not what people are describing. They are saying you have 24 people that are loot-locked for the boss, 1 person who is not. Loot drops, only 1 person can roll, he passes on all of it. 24 loot-locked people dc/leave instance (not sure which) and come back then they can receive loot from the loot-locked boss. Rinse, repeat.

They're deliberately abusing the system to get loot. It'd be like somehow circumventing the weekly raid lock and clearing the normal raid 20 times in 3 days. Originally Posted by Linneeaa

There is already a dozens of topic at official describing the issue and naming the exploiters (which is pretty much every guild on top 50 or something)
-
2011-12-02, 09:05 AM #10DeletedCurious why would top 50 guilds do this? They have full 391 and alts in full 391, and they're exploiting in order to get 384? Is it for like the 1-2 slots that didn't have heroic pieces during T12? Originally Posted by Keosen

And those guilds would be.....? Or was this a reference to STARS switching factions just to start on heroic the same week as release and having the heroics shut down? Originally Posted by Cutedruid

More gem slots, better gem bonuses, better tier bonuses will give an advantage i guess. Originally Posted by RavenGage

As I understand it they are doing it for the set bonuses which will outwieght what they lose in stats. Originally Posted by RavenGage

Precisely. The Tier 13 set bonuses are absolutely incredible for almost every spec/class, so much so that the 384s are better than 391s. Originally Posted by Belial

Not true to set items (with 4-set) and in some case trinkets. Originally Posted by RavenGage

It was only ONE bonus clear and it, in fact, did call down the banhammers and fixes. Originally Posted by Cutedruid
