FYI you didn't need to exploit any kind of trade window mechanic to put Dire Maul libram enchants on twink items back in the day, all you had to do was acquire the libram on the twink. The same goes for enchants like 12 AGI on cloaks, although in those cases the ilvl of the item had to be high enough to support the enchant.
I honestly don't know why some people are complaining about consumables when enchants like Crusader, Elemental Force or Incendiary Ammunition give your twinks proportionally far more advantage over lowbies than any consumables/buffs (which you do realize have been nerfed to automatically scale down and used to be much more powerful in previous xpacs right?) yet nobody seems to have a problem enchanting the snot out of their twinks, maybe because the culture of twinking fully absorbed the idea of enchanting to the max long ago whereas consumables have always been things some used and others didn't.
On my server stacks of 20 Goblin Gliders sell for about 400g. My twink can fish up 20 Deviate Fish to cook into Savory Deviate Delights in under 10 minutes, and sell the stack for a few thousand gold. So really there's no excuse not to use them unless you're either 1. Ignorant 2. Lazy 3. Too poor to afford a paltry $15 a month for a wow account.
FYI you didn’t need the libram on your twink. You literally enchanted your head just like you can enchant a pair of bracers in the trade window today. 12 agility to cloak was no exploit- it was just an enchant. The item level just happened to make this item BiS. The same can be said for Crescent Axe, as it allowed mongoose or the higher agility enchant (normal agility was 15, was it 25 for a 1h above ilvl 35? Didn’t play 29s much).
I don’t know why people bicker about consumables. Twinks have been using consumables since 2006. Guilds have literally been named after Rumsey Rum- a CONSUMABLE that every twink used lol. IMO there is a fine line on some of these “exploits” like the trade enchant glitch. 2spellpower to pants is not a game breaker- but using things like legion blues that alone double the stats of your twink are a little much. Even then though, few people have such items.
I don’t use the boards as I think they’re scummy myself- but I honestly should go get some. The other day I queued into a Bg where 5 boomkins queued together and all used these boards in the middle of EOTS.
