WOW Cheat: Warlock Exploit Create 2 Soul Shards : World of Warcraft Nerfed Info

[viperstrike]

I was in LBRS lst night and I cast Shadowburn(warlock Destruction Talenr). Now in 1.9 and beyond the Shadowburn does X damage AND has a 5 second debuff on the target(pre 1.9 SB did X damage and yu pray it KO's the target for the soulshard)

well here it is in a nutshell

target mob

cast Shadowburn

then immediatly cast Drain Soul

if the 5 second debuff is still on the target while your casting Drain Soul and it dies you get 2 shards. And if your in a good raid group. The mob should die in time to get 2 shards.

HAven't tested this in PVP yet. Works for PVE/Raids

Can someone else confirm?

[yaafl2]

i can confirm but its not really an exploit since they are both intended to give shards back its just really using what blizzard intended your only really gainin 1 shard anyways because shadowburn uses 1 to cast

[viperstrike]

well now you can get two shards when normally you could only get one, thanks to the 5 sec debuff on a mob, so if your quick enough you can get 2 shards when normaly Shadowburn onlygave you 1 IF and only if the SB KO's the mob,

now you can use SB and Drain Soul to get two shards(1 for Shadowburn and it's 5s debuff and Drain soul's intended use)

[viperstrike]

and no you gain two 1 for Shadowburn and one for Drain Soul

the dialouge looks like this:

You Create [Soul Shard]
You Create [Soul Shard]

2 shards go into the bag so you are 1 ahead and covered the cost for Shadowburn and gained 1 vis DS.

Perhaps "working as intended" but now you get 2 shards if done right.

[tault_pohyu]

you use 1 soul shard to cast shadowburn

you gain 1 soul shard by having the mob die from shadowburn

you gain 1 soul shard by having the mob die with drain soul


so basically you could just cast drain soul and save the mana

[skaflock]

they actually added the 5 second debuff to get the shard as a feature in the game. This was blizzard's intent, not an exploit.

[Tault_daremox]

Tried it, it didn't make two on my server actually made me lose a shard. So don't understand why but not working on my server. D

I was in LBRS lst night and I cast Shadowburn(warlock Destruction Talenr). Now in 1.9 and beyond the Shadowburn ...

No offense but who cares since Shadowburn Wastes a SS too...

[viperstrike]

true but by using legit Blizzard mechanics you can gain 2 shards for the price of 1

maybe not an exploit but possibly a good use of mechanics like mounting on a ship.

[tricer]

Yes it works.

I've been doing this for about 3 months. Found this information over on worldofwar.net back then.

Yes it is legit game mechanic.

[viperstrike]

then since it is using legit mechanics to achieve something not done before then move it to guildes since it is not an undocumented explot.

Much like my guide on mounting on a ship, this uses legit mechanics to achieve something not done before

So, you use shadowburn (which costs a soul shard to cast), cast drain soul (which gives you a soul shard), the targets dies and you get two soul shards you didnt have before?

NO. Shadowburn COSTS a soul shard IN ORDER to get one back IF the target dies. As it may look like you get two back, you're really only getting 1 since Shadowburn uses a soul shard in order to recieve one. Drain soul is the only spell you're using to actually GET a soul shard that never was in your pack in the first place.

If Shadowburn actually added a soul shard to your inventory, you wouldnt need a soul shard in your pack in the first place to even cast Shadowburn.

Shadowburn = costs 1 shard, then gives a shard after target dies with Shadowburn still on target.
Drain Soul = Doesnt cost a shard, gives you a shard when target dies.

Equation:
-1 + 1 + 1 = 1
(SB) (DS)

You get one shard that you never had before.

Well seems like a exploit to me. Worth 500 points. Nice one.

The way he explains this I don't think you get anything besides the normal soul drain shard.
