Arena Battlegroup exploit

[Vyil]

How to play in a other battlegroup. Incase your battlegroup is too hard for you, here are some steps for you to get some easy ratings then:

1. Be with your 3v3 team from *Battlegroup X*
2.Make party with your team+invite someone from a other BG (Through Battlenet Real ID)
3. Remove the Real ID person
4. Que up for 3s.
5.Welcome to your new BG

Does this just prioritize the other battlegroup over yours? Arenas are already cross-battlegroup, it will just by default try to match you with your battlegroup first [at low ratings, after 2700+ there are too few teams in the queue to prioritize].

[Vyil]

for example, you will get switched From Stormscale to Vindication BG

[Bupko]

it works but from my point of view difficulty of reaching high rating doesn't depend on your battlegroup (anyway players from diff battlegroup fight between each other) - only end season rankings and it cannot help with it

anyway +1rep

There's no more "battlegroups" you can queue up against anyone...

Cross Bg q's actually only start to work after X ammount of time in a q.

You can get qued into any battlegroup, if the system is having a hard time finding people from your battlegroup, they'll toss you into another one.

Its not suposted to be like that. Where do you people get this kind of ridictoulous information? Ofcourse blizzard doesnt allow this (I even made a ticket about it, and it was indeed a exploit). It would be weird to have different battlegroups in the first place then doesnt it?

This is huge, +rep

4.1.0 Patch notes:

Arenas

Arena matchmaking can now extend beyond a team's Battlegroup.

Patch 4.1 Public Test Realm Notes - April 12 - World of Warcraft

Before you call people ridiculous do some research. As I and others have already stated in this thread it attempts to match you up with your own realm first, then your battlegroup, before extending out into other battlegroups. As I stated in my first post if your exploit tricks the system into prioritizing a different battlegroup that is indeed an exploit (albeit hard to prove), but just getting into other battlegroup games in itself is working as intended.

+rep to the person above me doing more research than the OP.

[Vyil]

Contacting a GM and getting told its not working as intended is imo research enough?

Customer Service employees are not experts, and if you didn't already know that arenas are currently cross-battlegroup then there may also have been confusion.
All I'm saying is that if the exploit is the ability to do cross-battlegroup arenas, that is working as intended. If there is something else going on then it is not.

couldn't seem to get this to work.
