Dire Maul EXPLOIT - Tribute Buff Stacking?

It seems the dire maul tribute buffs stack?
Just saw a rogue with 4 x of each buff and after asking him about it he said:

“we’re just farming runs, it aint our fault it’s bugged.
It’ll get hotfixed in a few hours anyways :)”

Seems pretty broken since the buffs are pretty damn good and give people a huge advantage.

Can anyone else confirm this?

I can say this, no reason to risk your account over this. Finish the dungeon get the buffs, reset and wait until they run off. The “its not my fault blizzard f’ed up” is not an excuse and it never really matters when its time for the ban hammer.

Edit: it was hotfixed minutes ago, idd you could stack the buffs

we did the run like 2-3 times and got the stacking buffs but we didnt care for it or adjust anything. i personally didnt even check if they stacked i just assumed it was a tooltip error since they are not that super vital for a healer anyway.

Stop spreading panic… This has been fixed and there is also a blue post about it

Why can I not find this bluepost?

Because u are not trying to? Just open your eyes… Ill copy you a link but i cant, and i hate those spaces and dots in links… So annoying

I think you’re referring to something completely different and unrelated.

That’s a quote from my original post regarding enchants taking up buff slots. That was hotfixed.

Edit: Actually this may be me missunderstanding the quote system of the forum. It snips so that it only includes the last paragraph which is about buffs and the buffcap. I still can’t find the official hotfix post though.

If you trace back this quote it comes to my post regarding enchants taking up buff slots.

Use the preformatted text, just like everyone else does.

Found it on the US forums. Ofc…

They got it right, this bug worked back in vanilla no one just ever abused it, there is some screenshot of a druid back in tbc abusing this in SSC and then it got fixed.

So TECHNICLY this bug is “vanilla-like”

Did you say these people last “Goodbye”?

Because the phrase “We just farming runs, it aint our fault it’s bugged” will be interpreted by Blizzard like “We are 100% sure its an exploit but we can’t ourselves from not farming runs”.

You realize this “bug” is working as intended right?
You can lower your pitchfork now.

No bans happen don’t worry

Glad you brought it to the open…however i do seriously question how on earth this wasn’t found during testing? Did they even run the dungeon consecutively just once to see if the buff would stack?

So Activision decided to fix this pretty vanilla intended bug but left Scatter-Trap deminishing for some reasons ?
Both are bugs and were up during current patch.

ZERO logic right there
