Any way to do this on FL 10/25 hc? For my alts hc Rag won't spawn.
I don't believe this would work in FL because of the problem that to unlock heroic Rag, all previous kills need to be heroic, so I think it'd save both toons to the heroic lockout. Now, this DOES work with DragonSoul though because in another thread someone figured out how to get heroic DS with only clearing the place normal mode.
Not sure if there is any working trick for FL unfortunately...

Working! Thank you, this saves me and my 12 alts A LOT of time!
Not sure if this is mentioned anywhere, but what I do is get all 10 of my toons into one group. Then what I like to do, is start up another wow client and log into a starter account(the free kind) that I have connected to my main account. Then, log onto a random toon and invite yourself into the group with your main. Now promote the starter account toon and you have a client you can alt tab to for passing around raid lead.
Thank you.
is it possible to transfer your 'saved' alt to another alt? I tried to do this earlier today. I zoned in on the new alt that I want to transfer the lockouts to, accepted the lockout like normal, but it doesnt allow me to pass the lockouts on to other alts or extend the lockout for next week. I have to keep using my original alt that is now level 100 and capable of running himself.
i think DS exploit got fixed. used my macro which i was using for few weeks. didnt work today
Just tried it today and it seems the old macro doesn't work. However, I just tested it and the trick to do DS on heroic even though you just cleared normal works with a new macro.
So, just to make sure you are doing the steps right... remember, make sure you are at Deathwing Normal, either 10 or 25, doesn't matter (25 is a pain to solo but not too hard lol), then talk to thrall. Select his gossip option so that a popup window appears to start the encounter... With the popup window up, now right click your portrait and go to where you change raid difficulty... With that option visible, pop the following macro. Worked flawlessly for me:
Code:This macro works: /click StaticPopup1Button1 /click DropDownList2Button2

Heya Sklug. Thx for this finding. It save me tons of time. Anyway, one question: as Dragon Soul has a different "method" do I have to farm it 10HC or I must clear it in 25HC?
Cya
You don't want to clear any of it in heroic or you cannot use this trick. You have to farm up in either 10 or 25, it doesn't matter, in NORMAL. Then, once you are at Madness, you can start sharing the ID with all your alts. You don't want to kill Deathwing with the toon that cleared up to 7/8, as he will carry the save over week after week for you. So, you do the originally explained method of sharing the ID with an alt, then, once you are at the final Madness of Deathwing event, whilst still in NORMAL mode. Talk to thrall, click his gossip option to start the fight, then a confirmation box pops up. Whilst that confirmation box is up, do not accept YES start yet, that is when you go up to the top left corner and open up where you change raid difficulty. Once you have that option available, use the above macro... you may need to change the 2nd part of the macro to /click DropDownList2Button1 if you would rather do madness 10 instead of 25, as madness 25 can be kind of a pain solo at the last phase... Not an issue if you have high enough dps.
I should also mention that you will not be able to switch to heroic for alts that have never first killed deathwing on normal. This is ok, it just sets you back 1 week. You still can share them the ID, just don't bother swapping to heroic with the trick, kill like normal for the alts that don't have. Pretty easy.

I wanna say in advanced that I don't think for a second this has anything to do with my luck, but after months and years of farming, I used this today and got Invincible's Reins and Mimiron's Head. So maybe it's cosmic.... but thank you for this, as it would have made any further farming I needed to do much easier.
