Mists of Pandaria Remix launched late last week, kicking World of Warcraft players back in time to hang out with some chill pandas. Unlike Chromie Time, which lets players pick an expansion to level up in, Remix requires you to roll a new timewalking character who won't be able to leave Pandaria until the end of the event in a few months. During this sojourn, you'll find new ways to earn transmogs, toys and mounts, including some rewards that used to be incredibly hard to unlock.

The frogs of the Timeless Isle net farmers currency like bronze, timeless coins and charms that can be turned into yet more bronze. All handy stuff. They also drop epic threads, which increase your cloak's stats by 12. So yeah, these frogs demand to be farmed. And players gladly embraced the chore to speed up their gains. Searching for premade groups over the weekend, it was nothing but frog farmers.

There's an argument that Blizzard has only treated a symptom. Obviously, when there's an exploit, people are going to use it, but this time the eagerness for players to take advantage of the frog farm can be partly attributed to their dissatisfaction. I'm personally having a great time in Remix, but Blizzard absolutely framed the event as a way to rapidly level up and become stupidly overpowered. And that's what we got in the PTR.
