Alone in the Darkness World First Exploited

This has certainly been a controversial day so far. Unfortunately the latest news is about Exodus admitting to exploiting Yogg-Saron for their world first completion of Heroic: Alone in the Darkness. Exodus has been suspended for 72 hours for the exploit, and there's a very good chance the loot / achievements / titles from the kill will be stripped as well. On the bright side, this means that the world first is still up for grabs once the encounter is made a bit more realistic.

The rumors are indeed true. We have been suspended for 72 hours for:

Offense: Abuse of Game Mechanics
Details: Circumvention of normal combat mechanics to defeat the Yogg-Saron encounter inside the Ulduar raid instance.

In our many attempts at trying to figure out a way to defeat Yogg zero watcher, we found a way to use bugged game mechanics to make phase 3 easier in zero watcher then one watcher.

Yogg-Saron Hotfixes

Immortal Guardians are now able to target players in the "illusion room" of Yogg-Saron with their summoning ability. This hotfix has been fully deployed to all regions.

We're also in the process of deploying a hotfix for an issue with Immortal Guardians that could cause them to pause their movement before reaching melee range. This fix will also prevent the Immortal Guardian from running away if their target is stunned.
