Hello all,
With the coming TBC release, Blizz said they will allow players to use a paid service to Clone their characters on the Classic server into TBC.
I am not sure if this topic has been highlighted yet to the Business and Production teams, but I see a huge risk with this option.
//Gold and Item dupping.
Lets imagine TBC is out and I chose to remain on Classic with my guild, but then I want to copy my character to TBC too.
I could potentially exploit the system and ask friends and guild to send me all gold they have just so I could dupe it into TBC, then once the process is complete, I would send back the gold given to me on the classic char used for the copy.
Then another player could do the same and so on until everyone has done it and we are all rich meaning the gold economy on the TBC server will be broken.
The same can be done to valuable items btw.
Is this something the Blizz team is aware of and if so what will they do to minimize the risk? Looking for a blue post.
Thanks!
