Sorry to post this here but as a commando I wasnt sure where else to put this. What is the general rule of thumb regarding exploits in SWG? I have only been playing a month now and I keep seeing these people on dantooine that plant a harvester in front of themselves and shot up lairs of vol lizards and pickets etc. The mobs run straight at them and get hung on the harvester unable to escape and they just shoot them down. Now obviously this is an exploit, but do people report this sort of action?

Yes please report that by sending an ingame ticket those people ruin games like this.

People report it all the time. You see the effect the reports have had.
The general rule of thumb regarding exploits in SWG seems to be, "Hey, he/she got away with it!"
I just ignore them, report them, and move on. It's a stupid exploit, and really doesn't affect me much. (Well, except the guy I saw with two krayts trapped that way yesterday. That pissed me off.) Nothing will be done though.

lol....I just let my armor take the abuse from critters. Harvesters are to expensive to not have them running 24/7.
I think Ive burned thru 2 full sets of Adv Composite armor now, but its more fun that way...hehe.
As a side not, I always report this type of exploit. If they cant take the hits then they need to be back on their home planet playing with the hermit spiders.

Lol, I would have found some way to provoke those two Krayts around the harvester toward the exploiter.

I saw a guy trying to do the get them stuck on a harvester trick with a whole back of mutant rancors.
It was great to watch, each time he ran around it one would get suck, but the other 5 just tore him to bits.
I would have tried to help but I was laughing too much. And explioters need not our help, they need our mockery.

Actually I must admin to using this exploit once. Was back in my 1st week of playing, we went to lok to kill some stuff and some how got a Kimo stuck on a rock. But he did kill all 3 of us half a dozen times before he got stuck. And we were using CDEF weapons to take it down, it took us over an hour to finish it off. Our scout got 3000exp for the harvest, lucky bugger. I think I got 500 Carbine exp.
But then again, we did not know it was an exploit.
Please forgive me, I shall never do it again

i think alot of people use this to xp fast. maybe the devs should make the creatures smarter so they walk around it???? but then again good armour is so expensive alot of newbies and irregular players can't afford it (mainly coz lots of people buy credits me thinks) so who cares. plus what about the poor pistoleers?
