HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

great joke post Taurin!!!!

Although it seems like a pointless excercise given SOE's lack of concern about this issue, I still like seeing this thread on the front page .......

Well since someone has started a new thread on this subject I thought it only appropriate to bring this original one back to the front page - yet again.

If you want a history lesson on this exploit read this thread from the beginning ......

jPS, so far as I know, no one on Tarq is using this bug, unless they're not advertising the fact.

Just curious here.... but could the gun mentioned below be using these bugged components?

T21 Ultra (these are a one-time, unique schematic)

133-372 Energy Damage Attack Speed 6.8 w/HAP - HAM 43/35/78

This clown is probably charging 100k forthis gun using low end resources to disguise the bug... mind you I could be wrong, but the way he handles himself it seems entirely possible.

This is just insane. This must be fixed ASAP. What will it take??

I saw a weapon smith having laser rifles sold for 12K with max damage 441, my laser rifles max damage is 401..

Only way to get this fix is to post in the forum how to do this exploit, then the dev's will fix it right away..

umm have you ever heard of adding a stock to any of your rifles. before you say someone is cheating making a rifle with 40 more points of damage why dont you try that.

There is not just one, but two major exploits plaguing the Weaponsmith economy.

One of which allows you to create any item without the subcomponents, while still retaining the bonuses of the subcomponents. This exploit has been verified as still not fixed.

The second of which allows you to create schematics way above your normal stats. For example, a Krayt Advanced Blaster Power-handler schematic without the schematic requiring a Krayt Tissue. This exploit can also affect non-Krayt-using schematics, like barrels. As of three days ago, this too was verified as still not fixed.

I haveposted these exploits in explicit detail on the Correspondent forums, with a plea for the Developers to immediately assist our community. I still have not received a Developer response.

Thank you for keeping on top of this Ace! Please let us know if and when you get an answer.

Pm'ing to Taurin isn't going to do **edit**.... much as I hate to say it, the people that are stating post it are right... the only way to get it fixed is to bring it out in the open... until that happens sit back and wait another couple of months and 'maybe' it will get some attention.

Are you using Stocks? If he used a stock could have gotten that high. Seems close to right amount of damage depending on the resources.

wow.

If you want this is to fixed just post exactly how it is done and when every weaponsmith on every server is doing it, it will become a priority people. Obviously they arent fixing it, so force the issue. If you know how to do these things post them and get the devs attention. In fact post on the galaxy forums for each server as well. So it can't be missed. Forums are open and you are explaining a bug that has not been fixed.
