Beware Diablo’s Claw is Gonna Getcha
Posted 8 June 2012 by Elly
An odd thing has been happening in General Chat. Fake items such as Diablo’s Claw have been appearing, linked up, ready for clicking. The text is pink but once you click the text you can be unceremoniously booted from the game. The items we’ve ran into are Monk’s claws (here’s the base item).
Zouri and Strykerking sent over a shot of one such item – Savage Heaven Hand of Conflagration. In chat the text appears as [8===D] (see thumb on right) but when he clicked it he didn’t get booted at least. The stats on the item are about 25 x the possible damage. He also got linked to one whilst running the butcher called [Diablo's Cock Ring] – that’s certainly one for the collection.
The official explanation is that it’s generated by simply pasting in code directly in to the chat. A similar thing happened in vanilla WoW and, as was the case then, does nothing with your game.
Please note that this crash does not pose a security risk. It’s simply a technical glitch.
Yeah I had one which had swearing in it and was coloured orange. I clicked on it and got booted.
Yeah I encountered this a couple of times. Since I wasn’t kicked out, I thought it was pretty cool. To some who doesn’t know much, it may be jaw-dropping though. I showed it to my brother and he was like :O
Diablo’s “Rooster” Ring? Hilarious. Inappropriate but hilarious non the less.
I’m not sixteen anymore but occasional “Richard” joke does amuse me
Yeah I am right there with you. When I read that, I lol’d
That +30 Arcane Resistance. Totes needed that.
Same exact thing happened to me–clicked Diablo’s Claw and and the game crashed. I knew it was a fake code as you can CTRL+V HTML links into the chat XD
