Follow In Battlegrounds Broken After 5.2

[Khatovar]

you can multibox more than 3 characters if u make follow on vendors. I` m multiboxing 3 toons, but i dont mount them on my mammoth, i just make them follow with WT on the vendor. u can use a macro on slaves /target nameofthevendor, na use your interract with target key with click to move open and your slaves start follow. If you start moving you need to press your key to make that and your slaves will follow with one press until they reach your vendor. you can multibox a lot of tons with this the only problem is u can move only if u are mounted and i dont know if blizzard bans for this.

sorry for my english.

Doesn't look like it worked out so well for Heyaz. I certainly wouldn't be surprised, they don't particularly like it when you use something to duplicate the behavior of something they explicitly removed.

What happen to Heya did they ban him

I wonder why some of the words in Khatovar's post are a different color from the rest... What could that mean? Hey, if I put my mouse cursor over those words it changes shape! Hmmm, I wonder what that signifies....

I just cancelled 10 accounts. Keeping 6 for right now until I figure out if I want to box anymore or not.

I'm a 5 boxer. I'm don't PVP on multibox, but I'm gonna throw my support to fix this. It's a little offensive, also. "We'll take 5x money, and give you... half the game." I believe the blue's stance was they are okay with it going away from PVP. I'm okay with saving $1125 a year.

I did just cancel my subs on my 5 accounts for support.

Well the whole thing is...

We used to be 'Tolerated, but Supported'.
But they remove a key feature, that greatly impacts a large portion of the game... which for many is the main portion.
And it is removed from Arena too, where bots aren't an impact... strongly suggesting that boxers are the real target.

And they do it, in a shady way.
With no warning in the patch notes, no warning from weeks of play on the test realm.
And with a sale, that boxers buy a ton of accounts in, just prior to the stealth nerf that prevents boxers from using said accounts.



The PvE game is still there.
But given the removal of /Follow from battlegrounds... there's no real incentive to continue playing PvE, as who knows what key feature will go next, or if things will say rosy indefinitely...
Blizz has shown, they're catering to the whining masses, against boxing.
If in LFR, people are vocal enough, that the boxer is taking their loot by taking too many slots in the raid... will that be removed too?

If you want to PvP in battlegrounds, Rift is an option.
If you want to PvE, in a game that still has full boxer features (at least whatever the game had to begin with)... and which hasn't been shady against boxers... there are choices for that too.

I'm not saying, don't play Warcraft, if you find the game to still be fun.
Just that there are other options, especially if want to send Blizzard a message.

Everything I have read including the gc twitter response leads me to believe that the disabling of follow in arenas will be reverted.

So, you are going to farm honor gear by instances? And why get pvp gear if you can only do arena with it, other players that are = gear as you and have more cc control. Arena atm is all about who gets the first blow.
