Don’t forget to check the Known Issues List to see if your issue is currently being worked on by the dev team.
We also have existing workaround for some issues that you can find here:
- What is your character name in New World: Dyrandal
- What server/world did you experience your issue on: Ydalir
- Describe the issue you are experiencing: I had joined parties farming Siren’s Brute in the past, which is a process of just killing him and then a couple minutes later, a mob appears on top of the gate and once that mob is killed, the Brute spawns again. Rinse, repeat. I thought nothing of this as an exploit, but the recent dev post stated exploiting in a way that seems to encompass this:
"…A player stumbles upon a sequence of actions that cause the creature to spawn instantly. The first time this happens is a bug. But if the player starts going through the sequence many times to spawn the creature and kill it for loot, they’ve become exploitive, using the bug to gain faster loot access than a regular player would.
If you have to ask many questions past this common sense layer (how many times? What if it’s the same sequence to force spawning but actually a different creature? etc) then you are likely in exploit territory. There are far too many variations here to cover with a blanket rule."
As per these statements, I’m worried I partook in exploiting and particularly worried as I know individuals have received perma-bans for things as benign as standing on a tent while healing.
I did not know this was an exploit if it’s the case and simply wish to make it known the developers to remedy so that players such as myself don’t stumble across it thinking that it’s perfectly safe to farm.
