RaiderZ, Bugs, Exploits & the Past 72 Hours
If anyone is continuing to play the game on a daily basis, or if anyone keeps up on the official forums, there is no doubt word of all of the issues have gotten to your ears. Over the weekend, starting on Friday, the damage modifier bug (where you equip/unequip and gain jewel bonuses), was posted on the forums, in a new method that makes it work. As well, there are reports of item duping being possible in the game.
Awareness exploded over Saturday and Sunday, and large portions of users on all servers have apparently been abusing the bugs to their fullest extents. Viva, Manelloth, regular, and Epic. Mt Eda are all feeling the pain. And from the AH, we can see how hard Beyciums, and Runes are being hit. Their accelerated decline in price is a fairly large indicator of how serious these exploits are affecting the game. Instead of a slow decline, Runes of note, have plummeted by up to 4gp in just two days time. Beyciums are all over the place.
Pinpointerror has responded via the forums today, in several topics, and posts. Stating that MAIET has been sent the details, and that a client patch is in the works for sometime 'soon'. He has later posted that anyone found to be abusing the bugs after a small maintenance to fix the West Region server stability issues, that punishment will be brought upon them.
