The ongoing Race to World First (RWF) for the Mythic Gallywix encounter in World of Warcraft (WoW) has taken a bizarre turn. Recently, we reported on a guild that exploited game mechanics to clear the Mythic version of Undermine not just once, but twice in the span of a week. Although they faced bans from Blizzard, they regrouped under a new server identity and claimed to clear all eight bosses again, albeit with the same controversial tactics.
Now, the drama unfolds further as the guild, originally recognized for its exploits on the Tarren Mill server, has re-emerged on the Doomhammer server, continuing their contentious practice.
Mythic Gallywix Cheating Controversy: A Third Exploited Kill in Two Weeks
On March 11, 2025, the guild known as <ecnarussAeR ytilauQ VoAR> achieved a dubious milestone by securing another Mythic Gallywix kill, this time on Doomhammer. Their pattern of repeated successes through illicit means has turned heads and prompted hushed laughter within the community, as many are sarcastically labeling it a “Race to World Fourth” after Blizzard’s repeated attempts to scrub their accomplishments from the records.
A concerned Reddit user, ella, shared insights into one of the guild’s players, Badluckmax, who boasts an achievement score of 1100 and an item level of 547. For context, this item level is below what’s required to participate in Looking for Raid, which mandates a minimum item level of 606. Such discrepancies raise eyebrows among veteran players.
Details regarding the specific exploit remain elusive, although speculation suggests that the players might be using an Internal Spell, typically accessible only to Blizzard’s game masters, enabling them to effortlessly eliminate raid bosses. This situation has provided entertainment for many within the community, contrasting with the genuine efforts of legitimate guilds, such as Liquid, who recently tackled the One-Armed Bandit in a lawful manner.
The Mythic Gallywix saga has become a source of satire and humor, with some players joking that the guild is embodying the “Goblin way,” while others quip that Blizzard has finally made Mythic raiding accessible to casual players. However, the guild name includes “Quality Assurance,” a tongue-in-cheek reference to the mass dismissal of QA testers by Bobby Kotick in 2020, further fueling the meme culture surrounding this scandal.
As this unfolding drama captivates the gaming community, it remains uncertain how long this guild can continue exploiting game mechanics to stake their claim on the World First Mythic Gallywix title. The ball is now in Blizzard’s court to determine an effective resolution. We will diligently follow this evolving narrative and bring you updates as they transpire.
