I Agree with you sandman, I only think number three is an exploit. On tempest where we havent seen many good materials for awhile we need the stack of poisons/diseases to do the damage normally done by good poison c's. Also, with the mind heal/entertainer "exploit" its a cm taking time out of their game play to help friends etc. So number 3 is the only one i have a problem with.

I dont think others listed are exploits as well.

Please try to vote on the followingexploit list ASAP. I would like to compile a list by 12/12 for TH and the Devs. I will count all votes until I make the final list but will try to start working on it on the 10th. Please vote for your top 5 items and I will apply 2 pooints to the top item, 1 point each for the rest on your list. Items listed more than once will only get counted at the highest spot that item is on your list. Please do not vote for items you do not consider to be an exploit but make a second list for these. I will report both lists to the Devs

Please seeexploit discussions here or on the sticky:

1. DoTs now counting for loot rights are putting some CMs near the top of damage output for determination of looting rights.


2. Chain mind healing with entertainers for grinding exp.


3. Continued Med Exp for multiple DoT applications on targets with HAM values stuck at 1.


4. Stacking of DoTs


5. Poison + Disease bypassing HAM cap (This is a bigger issue with flamethrowers at the moment)

Thanks,

Pip

Poison + Disease = incap

Leave it or remove it, now it looks like bug.

Exploits:

1. 3


2. 5

I think #5 is actually a bug more than any kind of exploit.

Not exploits:

1. 1


2. 2


3. 4

3 but...

I think it is far more experience like to poision a creature with 1 HAM then it is to have someone macro tumble/stand while you macro heal. This is the popular way to reach master cm/doctor on Kauri, and I think it is really cheap.

In the real world a person gains weapon experience by shooting 0 HAM dummy target ... do you see my point? We trained giving IVs to fake arms when I was going through medic training, oh and you give cpr to a dummy also. Youactually do alot of training on irrelevant object, so yeah I could see gaining exp applying poision to a 1 HAM creature. In terms of the game it maybe wrong though.

I think they should disable any kind of exp while AFK, that would fix al ot of the cheap ways people reach masterof professions, then maybe lower the exp bar a little bit. They have to do something because I can't stand hearing someone say they they reached master cm in 8 hours while not playing the fricken game.

3 and 5 are exploits.
