By now, boosting in World of Warcraft has become a regular occurrence and you can’t turn around without seeing at least one invite in your calendar or chat whisper. Boosting is where one player pays gold to other, high-ranked players, to complete a run without them to get gear, achievements, or cosmetics. You’d think boosters would know how to do it properly by now, but one group who hijacked a Mythic+ run has failed miserably.
On July 27, DonkeyExpensive6989 opened up about their recent Mythic+ experience on WoW’s subreddit. Just like you and me, they wanted to push high-end keys and listed their +20 Neltharion’s Lair key on the Looking for Group. Everything was going smoothly and they even took in one Mage to blast their way through the run, but then, the key holder, who only wanted to time it, accepted three players with 3,300 rating.
