Pacifist Player from World Of Warcraft hit the latest level limit by picking millions of flowers
- Tech Backbone
After 17 days of placing the petal to the metal, Pacifist Pandaren player Doubleagent achieved max stage.
As a role-playing game, if you are able to indulge in any violence to do so, World of Warcraft features various methods to enhance your control within its MMO domains. Instead in the recent Shadowlands update, one player has taken a more pacifistic approach to meeting the level limit.
Without leaving the starting zone of the Wandering Isle, which is intended for players below level 10, Doubleagent, who plays as a Pandaren monk, managed to hit level 60.
It would have required Doubleagent to chose a side, either The Coalition or the Horde, to abandon the zone and thereby become an accomplice in a group responsible for the deaths of millions. Doubleagent, sticking to his pacifism, instead won experience points by collecting flowers for hours on end.

Doubleagent did not say how long it took to collect so many flowers after the Shadowlands launch on November 23, but at least the expansion's more forgiving approach to levelling up made the process easier. This is not the first time that Doubleagent has indeed taken a gentler strategy to hit the level limit, as prior attempts saw 8000 hours spent on achieving level 110 in the extension of the Legion and according to PC Gamer, an estimated 240 hours to reach level 120 in Combat for Azeroth.
Shadowlands is the eighth expansion pack of World of Warcraft, and currently, according to Activision Blizzard, it still holds the record for being the fastest-selling PC title ever. Blizzard's MMO continues to be immensely successful after 16 years, with more than 3.7 million copies sold on its release day and overall player in-game time having doubled relative to 2019 estimates.
