Character Cloning - The New Cheat?

[Castillan]

Was standing in Revenant Toll. This toon logs in. All good. Then I see a second name appear right atop it. All appearance identical. Looked like 1 toon with 2 names. Then one of the toons walks to the side. I inspect them. They both have identical gear. Then another name appears on the first toon, and that new toon walks off to the side, also with identical gear. Then a third.

Looks like someone has found a way to clone toons. Just a heads up.

BTW, these toons were all level 50, with some off mix of crafted and artifact gear. I wasn't watching level 1 toons spawn in, in a city. This was blatant toon duplication of a level 50 toon in Revenant Toll.

Aww, you don't like when people say toon? That's too bad.

It's probably a duel boxer. There's practical platoons of them in WoW.
I saw one earlier, all miqo'te females and all White Mages, all in the same gear, same FC, all following each other. Dunno if it's against TOS or what, though, or if its Gil sellers or people with far too much money to blow.

Most of the time it's just RMT trying to make a lot of gil with the start mission/quest.

I had time to catch a video of the 4 of them, and then got a 90K as I was inspecting. I missed catching the actual cloning process in action. I'll upload to Youtube if you really want.

Yeah, I've seen those types. No, these were spawning in on the EXACT same location. Like identical. And normally when toons spawn in, they have that brief running animation and then stop. These weren't even doing that. Just suddenly a 2nd name appeared in the exact location, and then walked away.

Yep, good to know THAT'S what you took away from this....

Please, do. Curious on seeing this myself.
