The way it works now IS classic and what should be in, it makes the swords a useful item that a mage can summon, cool feature.

The proc rate was set on pets too high, and it was thoroughly abused by most everybody that is now high level. Even abused to kill raid mobs.

What the problem is, is while the fix is a good idea in theory, it really penalizes the majority of the server who are just hitting level 29 and can just start to use the swords on their own pets.

These are the people who reported the bug, not the ones who have abused it for the last 3 weeks. The poopsockers knew it would play out this way, and chose to use it in a way that it will be nerfed when it "trickles down" further disadvantaging the common "Peon".

It either needs to stay in for now, or fix it and give something to the non poopsockers (exp bonus maybe?) A server wide bonus for a few days or perhaps some "hotzone" bonuses for all zones under level 40.

Thanks for posting that, to say im disheartened is an understatment. Leaving it in should not be an option. It should be fixed and the people who abused it should be punished, plain and simple. Its the same people getting wands nerfed and so on. its old, do something about it, or there will be a post about something else similar next week.

Nobdy deserves easy lvls, And not everyone has access to a mage, then or now. Should I get free or "bonus" exp because i didnt get to wand quad kite for a few lvls too?
