Double Timewalking Badge Quest is back (+ possible more )

[Frankysteryo]

So in my last thread I found a bug where you could complete the weekly event quests and the badge quest from timewalking twice per event, that got hotfixed.http://www.ownedcore.com/forums/worl...character.html (Complete the weekly event quests TWICE per event, per character)

However now the bug is back for only the badge quest! If you turn it in before 03:00 at Tuesday night you will get a 2nd 'Smoldering Timewarped Ember' (Cata timewalking version) and you can turn in the quest once more since you turned in the first one before the weekly reset.

But wait! There's more to it. If you get the 'Smoldering Timewarped Ember' and DON'T accept the quest from it but rather just keep it in your bag, you will keep getting infite embers from every timewalking dungeon you complete, which instead gets sent to your mailbox since it's a Unique item. This could potentially mean that every week that there's no timewalking you could turn in the quest if you have enough embers stored up in your mailbox. You will also get a 'new' ember if you turn in the first one before 03:00 Tuesday night as I stated in the first paragraph. Simply don't accept the quest/turn in the quest from the 2nd Ember you get after the weekly reset and you can get infinite amounts.

Proof by screenshot:

If anything is unclear please post in the thread since it can be a tad bit hard to explain.


quick edit: Since I do not know what will happend after the timewalking event ends (if the turn in NPC sticks around), I'm not sure how big off an impact the mail trick will have.

How to do it now: Thought I'd update this and say that it still works if you:
Never loot the end boss (the boss which drops the badge item).
As long as the last boss ain't looted it will keep sending quest item to your mailbox, and as long as you don't loot your mailbox until you have however many you want stacked.

I noticed that I got one tuesday night and one again today, but that mailbox trick I didn't even think of. Thanks for sharing.

Happened to me as well. Maybe we can store some and turn in ever wek for 500 badges!

I've had this happen to me plenty of times and thought you cannot turn more then 1 in regardless of how many you have?

And following weeks the NPC isn't there anymore

[Frankysteryo]

Well you can turn it in twice if you, as I wrote, turn the first one in before 03:00 at Tuesday night since the weekly reset is at 03:00.
The mailbox trick is simply something that possibly has potential to be major. If the NPC you turn in the emblems to remains after the timewalking event ends or if you can store it til next timewalking event and if the cata emblem quest doesn't share weekly CD with the tbc/wotlk emblem you might be able to get a ton of free badges.

Call me miss-informed, but would faction changing/server-transferring reset the quest? Sure its expensive, but for some it may be worth it if it works.

The Cata npc will be gone after the event. You'd only be able to wait until the next Cata event

Sorry but Kiatke, the vendor is only available during the event week

I did this in the last timewalk. After the event is over, the vendor stay there for more 24 hours, so you can turn a badge into timewark coins, but only ONE. You may have 4 in the mailbox ( like me ) but the vendor accepts only one more.

Then if you accumulate 3 of them in the very beginning of the event, the first day before 3:00, you can deliver 1, then u can deliver one in the middle of the event and one last in the first day postevent. This means you can get 3x the reward. Am I wrong?

It do nothing. I knew about the mail thing months ago buy you can't do anything, the npc despawn and if you already complete the quest one week you can't pick another one until you turn that so don't botter to stack a lot, maybe 1 if you want fast 500 when event comes back but it really don't help. Also looks like in US you can't turn it twice in the same week. I tryed last time cata event was up and wasn't able to... Maybe only in EU cause events start on wednesday in US.
