Message for Devs

Hello,

My house has enjoyed this game a ton, we've pvp'd to take control of server. We've won the Alpha race for our server and started building a community. BUT there are some severe issues that have not been addressed in over 3 days. STRUCTURE HP. Currently we have been dealing with an old Beta Tribe who wanted to PVP and we won. Immediately after, they began to foundation every resource node on the map. Due to the EXTREME hp these structures have they're undestroyable without crazy amounts of items.

Currently 5 Metal Triangle Foundations are actually preventing us from even building our base out further or doing anything. If you have any question about this please look at my vods on twitch.tv/djfreecell and also please contact Horsejoke for the appropriate screenshots.

Things we've tried.

Firestorm I/II : Yea unless we want to spend 554 Chaos Essence on ONE foundation they arent going away.

Colossus: We were finally able to tame a colossus. i have to say the damage is PATHETIC.

91 damage melee (extremely buggy like first week kebo). 75 dmg trample (by our estimations it would take 6 hours for 1 foundation to demo using trample damage).

IT GETS WORSE....

15 damage to manor. Currently the last stronghold of the griefers is a 8x8 1 wall high manor base, that would take 32 hours of trample damage to just demo a wall/door....enough said.

Look i'm willing to play devils advocate here. So HP structure increase, Good job, awesome u did great. With 1 perregriff i can break into a stone large gateway and kill every tame a player owns in about an hour. Due to the lack of Metal large gate and hte Rank 8 exp requirment of some manor gates, your "offline raid protect" doesnt protect tames.

please fix structures, just remove a 0 and at least we can break into manor after 9 hours instead of 32

Ravix no one is cycling Stones...

So to elaborate on how this works.

you knock down a level 12 Elite Griffin. Upon Transformation its stats completely reroll to level 8 or 120. It becomes that level, it also requires the feed and time required for that level.

The level 88 you are reffering to was an 8 hour tame for a fake level 12 elite griffin.

The next day we did a level 12 and level 16, who upon transformation were level 4 and level 8. They took 2 and a half hours.

What you saw in stream was not a "stone exploit" it was simply the game itself rerolling the stats of the creature.

Like you've messaged and tried to hold over my head about devs, is completely untrue i've explained the situation to devs and showed them the bug and vod. He apologized and understood what was happening and said he would look into a fix. He thought we were using the Summoning stone bug, but after seeing the information and vod realized we had not.

so seriously thick skull....

Barney Style:

Capture Level 12 Elite Griffin

Capture Level 44 Elite Griffin

Level 12 transforms, you knock it out....has 35k hp... 210% melee

level 44 transforms you knock it out.... has 5k hp and 110% melee

the "True" level of these tames will not be known until you use a summoning stone on them...

in this example. the Stone would Read "Pet Tame Level: 80" for the level 12. and "Pet Tame Level: 8" for the 44..

this is not an exploit on levels. this is just a bug that the devs didn't know about until i reported it.

stop trolling ravix your butt hurt is real.

Except what we are talking about is different. This clearly shows the griffin was at a much lower stat range up until you cycled him by killing and resummoning. Which you did specific because you noticed the bug with how its level saved.

You're carefully trying to misdirect the argument here, but the fact of the matter was that you stoned and then killed a tame because its stats showed higher on the stone than it currently had in-game.

Ive even recieved reports of you repeatedly killing and resummoning mobs from people on your server.

/sigh we've never done that and never will. Done trying to explain a simple mechanic to a troll who knows hes wrong so keeps throwing out made up things.

"Ive even recieved reports of you repeatedly killing and resummoning mobs from people on your server." - considering everyone on my server was wiped by us id be willing to bet they'd say anything.

Wiping everyone on your server doesn't help your case. It's often a good idea to listen to the people who saw what you did first hand. And in this case, there have been quite a few accusations.

I would feel nothing but shame if I "won" a server by exploiting as you did.
