Anti-Hogger Nerf Movement launched in World of Warcraft

Hogger, the elite NPC - Image 1 Recently, Khaldessa of the World of Warcraft (WoW) forums founded the Anti-Hogger Nerf Movement (AHNM) as a form of protest and as a plea against any nerfs that Blizzard may implement on the elite Riverpaw knoll chieftain known as Hogger.

Supporters of the Anti-Hogger Nerf Movement believe that the nerf will essentially deprive both themselves and other players of what is now considered a staple part of the WoW experience: a chance for characters in the single-digit levels to encounter and defeat one of the first (if not the first) of many dangerous bosses they’ll meet on their journey.

Opinions from various WoW forum members regarding the Anti-Hogger Nerf Movement have ranged from the serious to the silly, from wholehearted agreement to sharp disagreement and something in between. Some players have proposed that Hogger be buffed, nerfed or left alone and be granted other goodies on top of that, such as a bodyguard or an escort (Gamon, anyone?).

Others have proposed that another un-nerfed version of Hogger or a “Mecha Hogger” be introduced. A few MMORPG players have also suggested that Hogger should raid main cities such as Stormwind. At least a couple of forum members have dismissed the movement as useless, or have stated that Hogger won’t really be nerfed at all.

Let’s see how the folks over at Blizzard will respond to this.
