XXX is now Offline. XXX is now online................

I hope this exploite will be corrected before the Last Wipe !

It's boring and ridiculous.

If it's me, it's because I keep getting booted. Waaaaah, memory leaks!

 

I have no friends, no guild affiliation and reject all offers. I know it's sad, but I don't have this chat gump problem either.

 

This is how the game instancing works, switch from one mode to the next to farm mobs and nodes.

Its insanly broken and exploitable and im sorta shocked to see the modes not seperated by now.

Multiplayer / Friends Only / Solo Online / Solo offline

They should all have seperate characters and never ever be linked.
Its like Day-Z all over again... just sever hopping until your inventory is full.

Its the least talked about and most used exploit, but everyone knows you can do it, and I havnt heard one word from the dev about it.
its actualy my only real concern about this game.

 

Yes 3 weeks since the wipe and we already have people with 10+ GM's, killing the Ghost Corpion over and over needs to stop. Would be nice to see a lockout timer on such mobs giving that much XP. This has been going on the for the past few releases unfortunately.

 

Same, and no mention of when this will be fixed

 

Id prefer actualy a Lockout timer for switching Modes too much.

switch back and forth too much? BAM 1 hour cant log in.

 

I'm not sure you need to switch modes with the ghost corpion trick. Don't you just have to log in and out?

 

yea its a generalized instancing issue. Theres are a crazy amount of loopholes. But yea if u log in and out and theres noone else in the zone then it creates a new instance and new mobs/nodes.

You can also drop in and out of parties that have special ID's, if you break party and form a new one its a new ID and thus can enter a new instance. Looking at you Tower.

 

Two ways to solve this.

Remove login logouts from the misc chat tab. I've asked for this 2-3 times now.

Or

Shut off Misc in the chat tab. Now that we have skills gaining on the right hand side the misc skill gain notifications are less relevant.

Also, kill this as a possibility. Should not even be disputed.

 

This is sick! Must fix before the last wipe .


It ruins the game right?

 

Fixed that

Doesnt solve the issue of people gaining skills/gold faster than by design or what is intended.

If noone has ever played a game where your character is persistant across all servers concider yourself lucky, because its a horrible system that gets exploited in every way possible.

I think there are fixes planed and there are many ways to go about actualy fixing the problem, but I would love to hear from a dev about it.

 

Yes it ruins the game, the game is so easy already its quite boring. New people wont stay long with a game this easy

 

I don't mind these modes interacting, I just think spawn rules should be different from Multi-player online vs Solo/Friends Online. Like really different.

If turning off everyone else = more efficient, then people will come to the multi-player game and turn off multi-player.

 

1) Its already late. Guys with more than 100 STR, with more than 10 GM and etc are already around us.
2) Is it ok that SUCH EASY MOB gives 25k exp ??? I killed him once and troll(not boss) is harder to kill. 25k is almost same as dragon(30k in R28) gives for example.
3) Making him respawn again and again with logon/out its and killing it is EXPLOIT AND BUG, its only possible interpretation. Its a conscious activity and should be punished.
4) I dont see any topics on forum about this bug, so guys who are using this are purposely using one of the haviest exploit in the game(almost free exppool filling)
5) Thats why we need most boss be in PVP areas(and heavy penalties for death), its pretty hard to grind it for hours on same place with log in/off when you could be killed by another players.
6) Well done EVERY VIRTUE IS LASTING its a great way to help new players and making game interesting for all, KEEP GOING (if i understand right, main beneficiaries of this bug are from this guild) (Today I talk with my guildmates about 10 gm and 600+hp guys which i saw on tournamet, we thought that you are gods of SOTA, and now by the fact you are just bugusers in PREALPHA GAME lol)
7) This one more reason why guildwar declaring should be one way process - the fight against injustice.
8) It would be great to hear DEVs commentary about it it all.

 

Yup 40-50 k each time BB

 

your right,
since im talking about this multiplaces ill just paste what i said else where.

We need a timer cache on our account so that they persist no matter what mode we switch to. (requires alot server side probaly)
or a timer on mode switching/logging in>out
or a lockout timer for too much switching/logging in>out (both tough if we crash alot)
or seperate characters for each mode. (last resort)
or something else?

 

Right now there are still the case where client will crash on multiplayer mode, which force players to use single player mode just to access the area.

If that online/offline really bothering then, just unfriendly the guy.

The instancing expliot on the other hand will need to be looked into, but placing restriction on switching mode is overkill and does not solve the fundamental issue here.

 

O i could really care less about the chat thing.
its just the exploits man, it ruins everything, nothing matters if i can go farm 700k gold in a day with an exploit (which can be done easy style)
or instant respawn the most powerful monsters in the game.

 

The 10x GM person at the PvP tournament wasn't an EVL member, nor were any of the people with 550+ HitPoints. I'd suggest knowing what you're talking about before you post on a public forum. Many of the members of EVL have a long history of charity and assisting new players and are wonderful people.

If I were a dev, Id hesitate to act on any of these claims , this is a bug that when reported, the devs said they've known about for weeks, so I don't think its unreasonable to assume because it wasn't fixed weeks ago that it was a legitimate mechanic. Anyone remember the Tower of the Shuttered Eye? From what I heard, the devs HOSTED high end loot runs on purpose.

How is it reasonable to assume players can differentiate an intentional event from a bug that took weeks to fix?
