Hurry up and fix V5s WAR ghost exploit

[Mithron]

It's destroying the PF pug groups. No one can decide on WAR (or anyone else who can do it) or doing it the legit way.

It's an exploit. It's not a phase push. It's not an acceptable strategy. Stop doing it, do it the legit way, and hurry up and patch it out.

I don't see how it's an exploit, you are putting a lot of bank on one character to push through a phase or you wipe. The cost/risk ratio seems fair imo.

Now as for the PF issue, make your own PF or stop joining PF that use a strat you don't enjoy. It's really that simple, all you need to do is find 7 like-minded players to join your party.

Do people still think only war can do the skip?

How is this an exploit?

This is a strategy. Next thing you know, somebody's gonna go around clamoring that Tank LB3 strat in Byakko Ex is an exploit too. Just...stop with that.

Technically, it is. The vast majority of people in this community will take the 'easy' route even if it screws over other players in the process. How many people had their progression on Byakko artificially delayed due to the job they decided to main being common? When even tanks and healers struggle to find a group due to 'no dupes' you know something is amiss.

Using long standing game mechanics the way they're designed is not an exploit. SE made tank LB3 do what it does, and SE made LB not go up as quickly with duplicate jobs, deliberately to encourage people to not bring duplicate jobs.

Players reacting to that by not bringing duplicate jobs is working exactly as intended.

Any crazy burst class can do it, as far as I know a RDM can do it too. This isn't even an exploit at all.

[Lord_Zlatan]

The problem is which classes will suffer from a DPS loss upon exiting the passenger car.

RDM loses next to nothing aside from 2 oGCDs and IMO is the best option for this.

Didn't Yoshi-P address this and the Byakko strategy in the latest LL as legit?

Yes, he did, said that both were unexpected but legitimate.
