So your gameplay was never switch weapons ? Stop trying to racionalize your exploits

I have now PM’d Dev’s 6 times and nothing, it’s a working day and they are still silent, they have no respect for players and the time invested in the game.

Even to say “were aware and looking at it” would be fine but to not even acknowledge the issue is just typical of the lack of support we all seem to get, and really unacceptable from a company the size of AGS.

This is a huge issue and needs attention immediately. You are killing your game

I hope we get a response today. This bug has been active and breaking the game since last week.

I like how devs just shit on players, not fixing game breaking bugs for days and not even responding to complaints. Feels like got scammed by purchasing the game because devs just don’t care about state of the game and it’s only 1 month after release.

I didn’t play lot of mmo games, but not fixing game breaking bugs and gold dupes for days? - i see this first time

This needs to be hotfixed ASAP … I just got oneshot by a 42 with hatchet in a war … this is borderline ridiculous.

13,000 views and not a single CM response @Luxendra

Just PM’d Luxendra, for I think 3rd time, see if we get a response.

Almost 1pm est and nothing. The fact that they have nobody working on the weekends is crazy to me. Spaghetti against the wall. They are responding to other things. I can’t wait to see what other bugs are created with their “fix”

This is not an exploit, but needs an urgent fix.
@Luxendra

uh pretty sure if people are exploiting this to gain power over another, it’s an exploit. We did a war last night and almost everyone of the defending team had hatchets and destroyed us. Saw a guy take almost 6k damage from a leaping attack on another player.

Poeple like to pretend the bug they abuse is not an exploit even when the very definition of an exploit is abusing a bug to gain an unintended advantage.

There is one way this is considered an exploit.

In order for the perk to prox, you must kill an npc.

That is why it works in outpost rush and openworld.

But when you have to switch weapons to remove it, and go out of your way to kill enemies when your queue for war pops then proceed to enter said war without switching weapons for however long it takes… that is an exploit.

Just replying to this thread so AGS can see I am MAD.
This bug is killing wars and the Outpost Rush, fix this quick!!!

The healing bug was available for something like 24 hours, this one is already 4 days old, COME ON

Hey everyone, thanks for chiming onto this. My apologies for the delayed response, was enjoying the holiday weekend.

We are aware of this exploit and the team is currently investigating this issue. I’ve compiled all of the information I have about this from various exploits and they have all of that information.

When we know more, we’ll update you on the situation. Thanks for everyone providing helpful notes on reproduction + investigation!

Same issue with great axe ultimate. And the damage bonus food in outpost give 5000% damage reduction

Beside that tiny game breaking bug. Why has there not been 1 reply to the massive failure of the economy yet? Gold is worthless cause its been duped 100x

Its not just the hatchet. Pretty much all perks stack to an absurd amount without disappearing until you swap weapons. You can stack fortify on the great axe and become immortal. You can stack life staff perks and also become immortal. Obviously Bloodlust you know about that one already.

Hatchet is just more obvious, because you take like 5k damage with light attacks in outpost rush.

They either have no clue what is yet to come, or legitamately do not care. Anyone can see what the duping of gold and items has permanently done to each server. It’s hopeless, even when (or if) they fix the weapons, resilience, gems, heavy armor, life staff, etc…
