Poor Headshot though. Shoulda kept his char in my opinion.


I think it's entirely fair. Reward for reporting the bug, punishment for abusing the bug.

Though now that people get banned for exploiting, I do wonder about the question I posed in the other thread: How far can we go without being punished for it?

Should it be allowed to collect Dragonflies in a swamp using the horse's magical swampwalking abilities?

Should it be allowed to one-shot animals using the bow at 1 MM (before the fix)?

Should it be allowed to abuse the horse's hitbox to fight animals above your level?

Should it be allowed to trespass into a claimed cave without Trespassing using a horse?

There's varying degrees of bug abuse (from design mistake to blatant abusable bug) and varying degrees of harm caused (from minor advantage for user to complete annihilation of other player). At what point does it constitute 'abuse' and should abusers be punished for it?


Can we still safely abuse obvious design mistakes and minor bugs? Is anything that affects other players off-limits?

I think you can abuse such bugs until it intrerrupts other players.

They may also double down with crater and salt statues of the bug abusers that are trying to flee near the center of the crater, though.

That is actually a complicated issue. Be sure to at least report any bug you come across would be my advice and do not employ any that actively hurt other players. Then again almost any action undertaken in this game has some kind of influence on other people...so where to draw the exact line? I dunno.

I'd say intent to murder, ability to murder, and a result of murder are the lines that'd have to be crossed for bug abuse to be serious. Well, if we consider characters to be more precious than all the rest.

Thansk, devs, for the justice. God love you for ruling your realms.

And +1 on that physical crater.
