    Maybe should have put a cap in where a player had to make a minimum of 20 WS, cures, buffs, enfeebles or whatever to reach cap, but I have no idea how difficult that would be to implement.
    guess im not as familiar with leeching as some people are. But im not planning on letting people in my run that are just going to afk. they try it and they getting a D2. as for someone paying and going in tio or somthing with there dual boxed whm. I say go ahead and let them, if they want to waste the gil and get hardly any returns no skin of my back.

    There are people who have a whole alliance of accounts. They could happily enter and dual box a melee and a mage while their other 14 accounts sit out of the way accruing points for every run. If the items obtainable with points are saleable, they're £££$$$ in, or can just buy all items at once and trade them all to main char, since all 18 chars will accrue points at exactly the same rate.

    Who gives a shit. If they're paying for 18 accounts, and setting up rigs capable of running them all at once, let them do whatever they want. It's their own problem if they're insistent on spending that much money on a game.

    And good luck duo'ing these NMs with one mage and one melee.

    People already managed it on the test server, killing 1-2 mobs before time out.

    Oh no, spending 360k to kill a whole two NMs.

    What ever shall we do.

    They would all accrue points, but they wouldn't accrue many. How many NMs can you really kill in 30 minutes, with only 2 people fighting?

    EDIT: Just to clarify. If 2 people can kill 1-2, then 18 people can kill what? 15-20? So instead of getting points for 20 kills on one character, the guy gets points for @30 kills spread across 18 characters... I see very little benefit to doing it that way. That's really not much of an exploit.
