The guy running this exploit against us on our server has even made a YouTube video showing off what he’s doing, and has been doing ALL DAY LONG:

Members of our faction first reported him some hours ago, and notified his guild’s leadership 2 hours ago, and yet he is still at it as I type this.

I noted this as a comment in the reports from others, but that ‘vanishes in the sea of other random chatter’ so giving my own thread for us.

Assuming he will take the video down once he realizes it’s being used to out him, here are screenshots from his video:
He’s alone at the board:

He’s now even made a reddit thread talking about what he did:

In case he tries to delete his evidence, one our faction-mates copied his video:

Makeda, I’m sorry for how this makes you feel. There has been an official dev response as this as working as intended. The best response may be to encourage your faction to put up their best resistance effort.

Best of luck on the battlefield.

There is an exploit in addition to the catch-up mechanics the dev pointed out. You can turn in PvP quests multiple times by using an auto clicker.

No battlefield for me.

If this stupidity is intended then there is no point in getting involved at all.

I’ll enjoy the PvE until I run out the fun meter and then go back to a less screwed up MMO.
