Nerub-ar Palace Raid and Mythic+ Dungeon Hotfixes - Web Pull Exploit Fixed
Some early morning hotfixes have fixed the Web Pull exploit in raids and dungeons, and more!
Web Pull (and Other PvP Items)
A rather large exploit has been discovered over the last 48 hours, with players finding out that some of the PvP items from Maara actually worked in Mythic+ dungeons and the Nerub-ar Palace raids! These could be used to devastation results, working on bosses and making them no nothing for the rest of the encounter trivializing them.
These are:
- Web Pull — the most used abusive one with its ability to Death Grip bosses and interrupt casts, completely breaking their spell queues.
- Electric Shock
- Holy Brigade
These three items have now been disabled in Mythic+ raids and dungeons, but not before some guilds have allegedly used Web Pull in Mythic Nerub-ar Palace to defeat the difficult Mythic Silken Court and other bosses. Using this in raid seems like an obvious exploit and if a bug like this is found again, where it completely breaks the spell queue of a boss and makes it a target dummy, we'd definitely not recommend exploiting it (or streaming it either).
Siege of Boralus
On Dread Captain Lockwood, the second boss of Siege of Boralus, players were previously outranging Sighted Artillery and ignoring the mechanic since it only had a 35 yard range. This has been hotfixed and now has a 100 yard range, making everyone deal with it at all times.
