Just three days after the WoW Mists of Pandaria Remix went live, Blizzard has patched a popular method of farming and speed-leveling, and players aren't happy.

The method in question involves killing Gulp Frogs on the Timeless Isle. There's a spot on the southwestern edge of the island where Gulp Frogs spawn, and they give a huge amount of XP, Bronze (the new currency in MoP Remix), and most importantly, Lesser Charms of Good Fortune.

As soon as the event began, players (particularly those who played Mists of Pandaria in the retail version of World of Warcraft) flocked to the Timeless Isle to get a head start on the new limited-time event. Then, on May 19, Blizzard quietly toned down the popular farming method, just three days after the event went live.

Players on Reddit expressed their disappointment over the sudden nerf. While it’s safe to say that many players didn’t expect this method to be allowed in MoP Remix for long, they’re still baffled by how quickly Blizzard fixed an exploit that’s been in the game for years. Worse yet, one of the main points of MoP Remix is that players can level up quickly, which is exactly what they’ve done.
