An epidemic similar to coronavirus has occurred in World of Warcraft

When it comes to a world pandemic, humans are the ultimate wild card. That makes it challenging build accurate mathematical models to Buy WOW Classic Gold predict how a progress from the disease can play out. We've certainly seen a lot of all-too-human responses to coronavirus over the past two weeks, with many people panicking and hoarding food, tissue papper, and hand sanitizer. Others cling to denial, yet still others are defying needs "social distancing" by continuing to visit restaurants, bars, concerts, and the like. Our epidemiological models undoubtedly are a bit able to better account for that unpredictability thanks to some extent to a virtual outbreak in World of Warcraft nearly 20 years ago, referred to as "Corrupted Blood incident."

The Corrupted Blood outbreak wasn't intentional. In 2005, Blizzard Entertainment added a fresh dungeon called Zul'Gurub into World of Warcraft for highly advanced players, controlled by an "end boss" named Hakkar. Hakkar became a blood god referred to as the Soulflayer, who had, among his arsenal of weapons, a "debuff" spell called "Corrupted Blood." Infected players would suffer damage at regular repeating intervals, draining away their "hit points" until their avatars exploded within a cloud of blood. The only cure were to kill Hakkar.

Blizzard thought this may ensure the infection wouldn't spread beyond that space. They were wrong. Rather than standing their ground, many infected players panicked, teleporting out from the dungeon before dying or killing Hakkar, and using disease with him or her. And lower ranking players, with fewer hit points, would "die" rapidly upon exposure. When you encounter difficulties in World of Warcraft, WoW Classic Gold can help you a lot, because you can use WoW Classic Gold to buy a lot of items in the game. If you want to get a lot of WoW Classic Gold in a short period of time, I recommend you a trusted website - MMOWTS, where you can buy WoW Classic Gold.

The biggest take into account the rapid spread on the disease would be a glitch from the programming, so that non-playable animal companions also became infected. They didn't show symptoms, nonetheless they were carriers World of Warcraft Classic Gold and appeared spreading the condition even faster. As Corrupted Blood infections spread uncontrollably, game spaces became plagued by virtual "corpses," and players did start to panic. Efforts at quarantine proved unsuccessful in stopping the outbreak. In the end, no less than three servers were affected, and Blizzard were required to reboot your entire game to take care of the problem.
