The Frog Farm nerf in MoP Remix has created a significant power disparity among players. Could Blizzard have taken a different approach to address this issue?
The MoP Remix has only been out for four days, but players quickly discovered an optimal way to level up their cloaks and gain infinite stats through the Frog Farm. However, Blizzard has now nerfed the Frog Farm into the ground, leaving those who took advantage of it crazily overpowered compared to everyone else.
In some extreme cases, a single healer is capable of sustaining a 25-man raid.

There are also reports of players boasting 70K stamina and 6-7K in each stat.
DPS meters show pre-nerf Frog farmers vastly outperforming everyone else in the raid.

So, what’s the issue? If you didn't farm frogs before the nerf, catching up seems nearly impossible unless Blizzard intervenes. The Bronze Cache buff buff isn't addressing the core problem.
Let’s consider MoP Remix for a moment. It’s a limited-time event, and while Timerunners will carry over to retail for War Within, the items won’t. Despite this, players are frustrated and voicing their concerns on the official forums and elsewhere.
But how can Blizzard fix this problem? Many community members point to scaling issues. For instance, there are reports of tanks getting one-shot in Normal Difficulty dungeons and Heroic content featuring bosses with 50 million health that can annihilate DPS with just two hits.
Another talks about how Heroic content has bosses with 50 million health that take minutes to kill and destroys the DPS with two hits.
The community's proposed solution is to nerf scaling across the board. Do you agree with this approach or do you think Frog farmers should get nerfed and their power reverted? How else could Blizzard handle this situation? Share your thoughts in the comments!

We're exploring spec diversity for each key level in Dragonflight Season 4!
Reddit user RaptorAnka pulled some interesting data from EU/US WoW Game Data APIs and created a visualization showing spec diversity in the ongoing season and how it changes with each key level.
The color intensity (high red for low diversity, low green for high diversity) indicates that certain specs are highly favored, leading to less diversity within those roles.
DPS Specs
Augmentation Evoker is very dominant, especially at higher key levels, consistently appearing in the top spot. Shadow Priest has strong presence across all key levels, often appearing right after Augmentation Evoker. Fire Mage shows up frequently, mostly at higher key levels. Frost Mage also appears regularly, but not as much as Fire Mage. Tank Specs
Vengeance Demon Hunter is the top tank, maintaining near 100% representation. Blood Death Knight appears more frequently at mid-to-lower key levels as the Vengeande DH representation decreases slightly. We see some Guardian Druid presence at mid-levels. Healer Specs
Restoration Druid is very dominant, especially at higher key levels. Mistweaver Monk gains representation at mid-to-lower keys. Holy Paladin appears more frequently in the mid-to-low key levels. Source: Reddit

Horde Timerunners can purchase shirts in Silvermoon City during the Landfall Campaign in MoP Remix.
During the Landfall Campaign in MoP Remix, Horde Timerunners will find themselves in Silvermoon City with the opportunity to buy special BoE Horde shirts from Andra.
The exact location of the vendor is marked by the player arrow in the included screenshot by Nidocide.
If you're curious, attempting to leave the city will teleport your character to Jade Forest, as confirmed by the original poster (OP).
A player asked the OP if it's possible to mail these shirts cross-faction to another Timerunner. Unfortunately, the OP couldn't test this as they had progressed too far in the quest chain, making a return to Silvermoon City impossible.
