In September of 2005, the infamous Corrupted Blood plague swept through World of Warcraft and quickly became a full-blown a virtual pandemic.
The epidemic began with the introduction of Hakkar the Soulflayer who when attacked would cast a hit point-draining debuff called “Corrupted Blood” on players. While the spell, was supposed to only last for a few seconds and function only within the new area of Zul’Gurub, an oversight by the developers allowed pets and minions to take the affliction out of the raid zone.

If you were playing WoW during the Corrupted Blood incident, how would you respond?
ive been watching alot of videos on this wow plague and yours is the best. The way you tell the story and the graphics to go along with it, Very well done good sir. Have a subscribe
This was a good explanation of the games pandemic. I had seen on TV this being referenced and had to find out what it was. Great job.
Man, I remember this day. I camped around the Ironforge auction house and a group of level 60 healers, kept the people around alive.
i cant believe covid-19 still hasnt been fully patched out.
But also… its a zoonotic disease, thats awesome
misleading representation, we get it; you don't play games
Everybody needs to see these kinds of videos
I call this virus to this day the wow virus
lol i didn't know WoW was older than me XD
wow this is more relevant than ever during this COVID era pandemic
The trolls are just the anti mask community
Actually made me laugh how I personally came in contact with all 5 types of persona in real life during coronavirus outbreak
Member when we only had an arguably hilarious virus that had no real consequence?
NPC = Asymptomatic carriers!
Wow this is done by corona
M8t this feels so much like how Corona is happenin right now irl.
The screenshot at 4:40 was NOT from Corrupted Blood. The screenshotting player is playing a blood elf (released patch 2.0) and in the bottom left corner is a death knight (released 3.0). There is also a flying mount on the right side of the screen that wasn't released until 4.2.
Also, re: 3:47; players didn't get the ability to put signs up ingame until some time after Mists of Pandaria released (MoP was 5.0, the sign might've been 5.2?). So at most they were just spamming /say with "stay away". I understand this was probably layman's terms for viewers who don't play WoW, since I get the feeling you guys have definitely played WoW, but as a longtime player it was just slightly irksome 🙂
Great video! I have no idea how I missed it when it first came out. Fantastic production value as usual. There's an absolute assload of misinfo surrounding corrupted blood, and even moreso now that a LOT of people are revisiting the incident through the lens of our modern world, but this video was pretty darn accurate. Great job as always Akshon.
This was so great! and timely, too. Great job!
This was actually very interesting and I had no idea this happened. Very good video btw
Really nice edit, with the spread etc 🙂 keep going
The healers! What heroic shit man.
*cough
Man this is very good content.
So is the theory that the real life equivalent of npc’s are objects?
This i such EXCELLENT CONTENT
Did it happen again
Time to hard reset the planet I guess.
I got goosebumps from all of this o.o
Super informative and well made, thanks
