Dark Devices - Phase 1 Exploit

[Crashar]

lol there are actually players out there harassing other players who kill the main targets as intended?

now that's f*cked up.

Yup, me and a friend went to northan thanalan yesturday for some quick tokens, that event just happened to be the second event on, we stood there tagging mobs for about a minute or 2 and when we thought we tagged enough to get the full reward we moved onto the actual mobs needed to die, let's just say the bitching and reactions people gave was hilarious calling us trolls and that we didn't get "any attention from their parents" and such, if people need to bitch about exploiting an unintended way to gain exp from a fate and think they have a right then they're doing it wrong, I had 0 problems with exp and it was more than fast enough to hit 50 whilst playing casually and just going to fates when ever I saw them instead of farming them like mad for exp.

I hope you reported every person who harassed you in shout. The more attention this gets the faster it will get fixed.

All signs point to this being an oversight, unintended, and an exploit.

Oversight or Unintended - Unless you wrote the code this is 100% your assumption and you know what they say when you assume.

Exploit - Not so much, this is not circumventing game design or mechanics. You cannot do this indefinitely as there is a timer that will force you to the next phase of the Fate and this is not the only place you can avoid the goal and work the extra enemies for added XP. Yes you gain more XP but this does not give it the definition of an exploit.

I had 0 problems with exp and it was more than fast enough to hit 50 whilst playing casually and just going to fates when ever I saw them instead of farming them like mad for exp.

Keep in mind some people are 100% out of content and quests which Fates have the best ROI when looking at the ratio of time to reward. Things change on your second + class.
