New RBG rating exploit

[Traxex84]

So I saw a thread in the battleground forums relating to this, http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/pvp/battlegrounds two players, 21 wins. non enchanted gear with obvious advertisement names 21 rbg wins, 4k rating. One of them doesn't even have a single honorable kill. Obviously this is an exploit as it should not be possible to do this with the current system as it equals out to 191 rating gain per win; any ideas on how they did this?

its called boosted maybe?

[praggers124]

im not sure how they do it but probably something like this jioned a pro team enter the rbg leave the rbg stay in the group still get rating but no Hk's

[Traxex84]

You can't get boosted to 4k rating in 21 wins in one day without some form of exploiting, not that it is too hard or anything, it should not be possible with blizzards current system. Even if you were vsing the top teams you would not get such a high rating gain per game, especially once you got to higher ratings (2.6k+)

Probably speed hackers since:
Eye of the Storm 10v10 3 0 – 3 (0%)
Warsong Gulch 10v10 9 9 – 0 (100%)

Or it atleast have to do something with flags..

The shaman has all the scroll of resurrection gear on. Maybe sor has something to do with it

Lol this is hillarious

There is no third party software involved here.

MMR does not reset when a season ends or a new season starts. MMR was never been reset since RBG was introduced.

In season 9 there was a bug which caused people to get ridic high mmr. MMR should have been reset at the start of s10 because of this, but it was now. Some players have insanely high mmr(in this case, around 4k.)

Ofcourse you cannot have 10 players with 4k mmr, but the thing with RBG is, unlike arena, you can join with one player, and the scoreboard will show the one player that joined the game's MMR.

If you, individually, have 4k mmr, you can que with 10 people, only join by yourself(10 people que 9 people dont join) and your enemy team will will be playing against a 4k mmr team and obviously get an insane gain.

Many people that played at around 2400-2600 in s9 have very high mmr still because of this bug. The FC in my old team had 2900 mmr last time I played with him.

how did they even get to lvl 85????

[maslt]

That's true bjol, but how do you explain the fact that Skypetoppvp got 85 the same day he got 4k rated? He also got the 1000 rating achieve the same day as the 2400 achieve, so he couldn't have done RBGs to get insane mmr at 70/80.

[Falkeid]

There was no RBG at 70/80, and 22 wins with the system they use will get you to 4k rating in no time. And its not the one with 4k rating which got the insane MMR, its ppl on the other team. You queue up with 10 people, but only 1 join (this will be the person which got insane mmr) and then the other team will go against 1 person only, and this will count as the team got 4k rating since its only one person in the RBG.

These russian guys offer rbg boosting and offer one testgame

I did several testgames with my characters, this is how it goes:

1. You add him on battle.net and they invite you to a group
2. There are always at least 5 russian people in the group + 1-5 people who get boosted
3. When the group is full they will que
4. After some time the que pops up and only the people getting boosted join. No russian player joins
5. The enemy team only has 1 russian player who is around 2,5k-3k mmr
6. He does nothing - you just cap flags/cap flag and win

After that it just goes like that. They que again and you will play against the same russian player. Every game is against the same single player.

I asked the russian who added me in skype how they do it. All he told me was, that the russian guy who joins is in a group with 10 people and they are somehow able to always que against the group they want
