Yeah. Exploit that you can actually get into the Cataclysm zones, kill some mobs, get lucky on drops and....


there.



Keyword here being EXPLOIT. Up to you if you want to be banned for getting it less than a week before time...

Probably glitched their way into new zones and grinded a few mobs.

[xavierjn]

From what I have heard, some people have found exploits in the environment that allowed them to enter into Uldum or Mt. Hyjal without getting the debuff that ports them back out. While they are in those zones, they're able to kill whatever mobs that are there currently, as well as mine/skin/herb, etc. Yes, it is an unfair advantage, but it is unknown what might happen as a consequence of those actions.
Blizz stated they expect some people to find a way into a zone or two, but didn't state any punishments or lack of for using those exploits to their advantage. Nothing may happen, or all the Cataclysm items will be deleted at some point and/or those accounts could be banned temporarily...who knows.

There is an exploit that allows you to fly into the zones, grind mobs, and profit. Now, as has been stated. They are taking a huge risk by doing this.

green lv 79 item with mastery cannot be better than any 264/277. since items are retrieved via an exploit I would suggest NOT buying any of them and seize all contact with the people selling them. even if you dont buy one they could get you involved and get an undeserved ban. just wait it out, its like 5 days alrdy.

On the other hand i found it a great way to make some easy gold, people pay a ton for a common green drop at the moment.

Ya people have got the banhammer already for getting into the new zones

[Nest]

I love reporting people who exploit their way in.
72h ban just ain't worth it. D;

[whiteblinga]

yeah saw this on my server as well, they were banned a few hours later though...

[Deleted]

I hope those ppl enjoys their ban )

[Ozy]

I wonder if fishing into the new zones and catching Cata fish are bannable...given your not "entering" the new zone but merely casting into it....anyone know of a ban for that?

Blizzard have been banning people for this ever since day 1. Enjoy.

Blizzard has fixed this so it's no longer possible to catch the fish if you don't have Cataclysm installed.

To compare with 277 epic, the difference is +~70 int, slight increase in other stats and minus a socket. Definitely better.

[Weerra]

Anyone know the exploit to get inside Hyjal?

Wrong forums for THAT question.

You pretty much only get banned if you're stupid enough to post the stuff on the AH. That is just asking to be reported by everyone who sees it. However, players in the high end guilds on my server will pay outrageous prices for cata fish to level cooking faster and/or go for server first. If you think you're going to achieve server first 525 cooking legit, you might as well give it up now. Plenty of people already have all the fish needed to max out cooking in the first few minutes.

Actually, I have seen several people who have been banned simply for having the items in their inventory. I am fairly sure Blizzard are able to make some sort of script to automatically delete all of these items before the actual release, so everyone who was exploiting just completely wasted their time. And then a nice three day ban so they miss out on the first three days of the expansion would be the cherry on the cake.

I've seen those a lot of those too.. I've also seen people exploit it.

Some people just have tons of free time ;\
