War Within Pre-Expansion Mega Post-Glitched Raw Gold, Broken Scaling In PvP, Paracasual Flakes Dupe Rumor, Double Hearthstone (Patreon)

Glitches tend to arise quickly during a pre-expansion patch, leading to numerous issues. The number of exploits this creates can vary significantly. I will update this post with new exploits as they are discovered, rather than creating new posts.

Due to the chaotic nature of pre-patch, take everything here with a pinch of salt and expect hotfixes.

1. Raw Gold from BFA and Legion Raids

(FIXED as of 30 July )

This temporary phenomenon also occurred during the Dragonflight pre-expansion period due to poor scaling. BFA bosses are currently dropping around 600 gold each and can be killed in 30 seconds. Legion bosses are dropping around 300 gold each and can be one-shot. The 600 gold and 300 gold are obtained mainly from vendoring weapons and armor that drop,

Last time this happened, Blizzard fixed it within a few days, even though it was not made public.

The best way to take advantage of this is through Archmage Timear in Legion Dalaran and Kiku/Eppu in Boralus and Dazar'alor, respectively. Check my public videos on raw gold from old raids, particularly Legion, for various methods to run Legion and BFA raids quickly and efficiently.

EDIT: Mists Of Pandaria content is also excellent with gear dropping from raids reverted to its old value before Blizzard began downgrading vendor item value.

2. Busted Speed Enchant

Just got this from "Protocol" on youtube:

"Azerite is bugged and giving way more speed benefits from Longstrider than before. My mage now has a base move speed of 300% in triple longstrider plus current DF enchants and the onyx amulet buffs."

3. Paladins Unstealthing Players Easily

This requires the Divine Toll sub-talent "Quickened Invocation".

Divine Toll casts “Judgment” in a 30 yards radius on stealth users despite them not being targeted. It does this 4 times every 5 seconds.

4. PvP Gear Not Scaling in Battleground Blitz

PvP gear is not scaling up in Battleground Blitz, which is now a rated form of PvP, according to this post: https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/pvp-gear-is-not-scaling-in-battleground-blitz/1901286. To take advantage of this, simply maximize your item level by whatever means, excluding the PvP scaling.

5. Paracasual Flakes Dupe Rumor

There are no firm details on this one yet, but theory-crafters might find it interesting. According to this post: https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/theres-a-dupe-going-around/1901094 

there is a method to duplicate paracasual flakes from time rifts, probably involving crates.

6. Double Hearthstone

The "Stone Of The Hearth" toy from the 10th anniversary event has a separate cooldown from other hearthstones. I manage to use the Dominated Hearthstone toy twice in a row also so this glitch is unlikely to be affecting that particular toy alone.

(Update 27 July)

7. Evoker Twink

If you have a level 58 evoker - didn't play it forever, accepted the gear upgrade and then had it reverted to level 10 via the patch change, you get an insanely strong level 10 with 226 item power gear

This article will be updated as I discover new information and test things.
