    This will have huge ripple effects in Classic specifically. Never saw Multiboxing that bad in retail, in Classic it was downright systemic.

    Its gonna be nice no longer seeing an army of druids with near identical names zooming around picking all herbs clean in a second.

    You've never seen the packs of druids farming in random zones in retail?

    The herb farmers and the 15+ multiboxers (rarer but still common enough to run into) were the only real problem on Retail. A small section of game play but the escalation was going to get a response sooner or later.

    Ripple effects have already been happening in Classic. Black Lotus got changed which when announced prices skyrocketed or dropped can't remember.

    i feel like herbing is a simple enough version of multiboxing that you could make do with simply putting all accounts to follow the main account and then some alt tab macro on your keyboard to actually pick up the herbs.

    If that is the case you've never come across a multiboxer and they're potential.

    no different than any other form of ganking, just join a random group to get phased of their shard.

    Oh sorry, I didn't mean "farming" as in herb collecting. I meant "farming" as in killing everything in a 30 meter radius, over and over and over.

    The herb will disappear before your 20th druid has picked it up.

    I did not expect Blizzard to ever take action on this, a huge surprise indeed.
