Someone was found dropping tons of Garnets in Zant, and many people are already lv 70+, and there are millionaries running around in the game.

How did that happen?

Because of a dupe expolit going around people has been abusing the game with. They could dupe garnets to sell for zuly and scrolls and jams to be able to get a lot of mad exp from using them on kings (they use a Blood Charm, get max out their Stamina with Jams, and then do it again and again).

That is how they became millionaries and lv 70+ within such a short time.

Here are some evidence here:
GameFAQs
7Hearts.net
7Hearts.net

Images of the dupe:

Now, that means there are four possible situations of how the GMs will deal with this.
1. A second reset.
2. A rollback.
3. Banning of all the accounts that got the duped items.
4. Do nothing and let this go.

#1 and #2 is possible, but it would just make people even more turned off about the game, since it has already been done once.

#3 is convient for people that hasn't been a victicm, but very inconvient for people that are victicms and does not know they did something wrong. But the plus of this is, there's going to be slightly less people playing the game, thus slightly less lag. xd

#4 would NOT be a good idea. The economy would just be royally messed up once again (imagine 500k for a G1 gem... >.<), and sooner or later the GMs would have to reset the game a second time.

Until I get an official word from Gravity, I'm not touching the game ever again. I'm not going to play for hours on end only to get reset or rollbacked again because of some stupid bunch of people trying to ruin the game for others. stare

This is what I'd like to see Triggersoft/ Gravity do:

1) Close the damn beta already. Even if it's only a temporary closure, they could then set out to ban hackers, & they could not just forge a new IP & make a new account then return to screwing up the game.

2) Move all character data server-side. Client-side storage is extremely easy to modify, it's hardly 'hacking'. You go in, tell some files you have 999 gems, & the server can readily be forced to accept that. It's stupid to use this method of data storage on any online game, period. Every other MMO that has done has had the exact same problems.

3) Hire more GMs who can actually do something. The current GMs do not have any real powers to control the population. And, there are not enough of them. The GMs need to be able to actually manage the game, not just taking note of people doing something supicious or asking around.

That's just my opinion.

You can change things client side easily with Tsearch, but sadly [or happily] it does not affect anything but you. For instance, you can make it so that when you buy something in the store it does not deduct any money from your character. The problem is that if you log out and come back you will have the amount less money then the amount you spent. So really it is not client side, nobody is stupid enough to store data client side and if they did then people would be like Diablo II Open. Millions of hit points, maxed all stats, a level 4 weapon that will make you able to fist anything in the game in one hit, etc. Really they just need to make it harder for the game to accept incoming packets or modifications. Right now they have it set to disconnect you if you use anything like that, but there are, and always will be, ways around it.

No the duping was-and is-done through the trade window with a program that moves the items around in a specail way and then,poof, you got more of them. It is quite easy, but I am trying my best to play fair and so I have not duped anything but 1 vitajam just to see if it actually worked.

i too at one point when i hate this game will dupe to learn more o-O. =D.

I got a genuine garnet which I thought I'd never be able to sell thanks to hackers, but a nice girl traded me her ruby for it today! smile So..

Ok that has nothing to do with this. sweatdrop

But I will still play the game without cheating, I don't know how to do it anyway razz , and try to enjoy it the best I can. Why? Because it's a free MMORPG, of course. Oh and don't say anything about Knights Online or something like that...

I think they just should ban all the cheaters... I have no gems and I am too afraid to buy one now. I guess I will have to wait for the ones you get on main quest.

I don't know if I am gonna start over once more if they reset again. Getting passed level 30 is just too boring.
