Things they don't want you to know about.

Oh really? Didn't know that one... Muahahha *evil laugh*

I mean... who would do such a thing?

Yes there used to be so many fishing bots espically in Windurst all by the fishing guild with funny names and there were so many they never talked and had funny names

I remember an exploit involving ceremonial daggers and enspells... since enspells don't feed tp and the dagger was 0 dmg, you could effectively fight the NM indefinitely and give it no tp.

i believe you can still do this, but if i'm wrong someone will correct me

There was this scary quest area in which you had to climb several floors while avoiding all aggro so your pt didn't wipe. It was called a Prommy or a CoP mission.

It used to be hard to reach the Haste Cap!
