Clever Exploit To Bypass Mission Table Time-Gating (Patreon)
Content
Patreon Erosium, who is a successful warcraft youtuber, kindly sent me the following information. This concerns a method originally developed by patreon Henning Aase. I am grateful to both for sharing this valuable information.
This method requires some knowledge of how Shadowlands Mission Tables work:
"Basically the mission table takes 5 weeks of hardcore companion leveling to get your companions to level 60 (important because your troops scale off your average companions level). However the extra wording after is... The troops level does not reduce when you find more companions. SO if you get a new character or covenant, only have 1 companion, get that companion to 60 SUPER easy via the level 30 boost from oribos flight vendor and then the multiple 75k exp freebies from renown. Then when your level 60 on that companion, all of your troops are level 60 you can hire all the companions you like and your troop level remains level 60 meaning you will be able to complete any mission very very easily. .. Effectively taking a shitty time gate and hopping over it hahaha! I did a new toon yesterday in 1.5 hours had full level 60 troops then went out and found all the rest of the companions and the troops stayed at 60 even though the new companions were level 1."
Henning adds
"The missing part of this trick is of course too use that level 60 and do all the campaign quests as fast as possible too reach level 20 on the table, the higher you get the better rewards and you get alot more efficent XP missions for the other followers too get them faster too 60."
By being able to complete Missions completely using different characters you can potentially create decent amounts of raw gold on a daily basis. Missions often offer 200-300 gold for what is essentially a single click.
