    Individual using Pomanders outside PotD

    Is anything going to be done about this individual who has been using Pomanders of Witching and the Manticore Pomander in PvP? Before patch, this individual was seen in screenshots using the Manticore Pomander. After patch they are at it again in Feasts and even using a Pomander of Strength in a fight against Zurvan Extreme, burning through the boss in less than 3 minutes. There are videos now surfacing of this individual doing these things.

    I am not naming names because of SE's policy on name shaming, but I can tell you it is one person on the Exodus server doing this in a blatant violation of exploiting a bug. I really hope they get a an extended ban for utilizing this glitch for several days if not a full out perma ban.

    Just keep reporting. It's all you can do, but they'll most likely eat a permaban.
    Edit: Also since the vids are on youtube of them doing it, you can easily provide that as proof also.

    Apparently a friend said they've been doing it for a week now and that this week isn't the first time they've been caught doing this.

    They won't, & can't, take videos or pictures into account for several reasons. The best (& only sure way) is to report the person in game.

    I actually think a permaban isn't enough. I'd like to see SE use the full might of their legal team on that person. If they're able to access normally inaccessible materials from the game then what other data is being accessed nefariously - IP addresses, account details (settings), private messages?

    There's always some who take it to the extreme & ruin it.

    Got a link to the YouTube videos? That can't possibly fall under the name-shaming policy.

    There was a thread linking the youtube video, the whole thread was deleted.

    But it's on Reddit. Just don't post it here.

    People like that will exploit anything unfortunately and even if they were to be perma-banned it is likely that they'd make a new account and do it again.
