WoW player wins race to new Wrath Classic level cap using decade-old bug - Gamesradar

A World of Warcraft player has hit the highest level possible in Wrath of the Lich King Classic in a matter of hours, despite the servers launching to lengthy queues. .

Echo Guild’s Naowh won the race to level 80 on the new servers by using a 12-year-old bug that looks just as classic as the servers themselves, allowing the World of Warcraft fan to accomplish the feat in roughly nine hours.

To help accelerate their plan further, Naowh also partied up with a bunch of players using level one accounts.

This exploit has been around since the original Wrath of the Lich King launch.

For Naowh, he’s either the first person to hit level 80 or the first person to hit level and then subsequently be punished. .

While the Classic Wrath of the Lich King servers have just launched, they’re looking mighty popular if social media is anything to go by.

World of Warcraft: Dragonflight launches this year, Blizzard says.
