Alt Death Spam Exploit

by **bobofpgh** » Wed Mar 16, 2011 7:43 pm

I have found what appears to be an exploit.

I create an alt, build his hearthfire on the grasslands, then pluck auroch hairs. If I die i just respawn there and keep going. When I have enough, I just hand them off to my main. Auroch hairs give an insane amount of lp... especially considering a newly created char can get high quality ones. I got 9k lp off one and i'm not even maxed out change yet. It seems that an easy way to fix this would be to only allow chars with a str equal to the quality of the hair to pluck it.

Another death exploit is to set up a hearth fire near a hostile creature and just keep spawning and dieing on it... while changing your personal beliefs each time... its possible to adjust every one but change in a half hour like this. This could be fixed by spawning new characters with a 20h wait to change beliefs instead of a free change right out of the gate.

These aren't really bugs or coding errors... but they seem to violate the spirit of the game.

Should just require animal husbandry to pluck hairs from an auroch.

slider timer is inherited now so you can't do the slider thing anymore

That would work too... just something so that they can't be plucked by a char with no time investment.

its hardly an exploit to use a new character to pluck the hairs when it takes 2 days real time to study the hair in order to get that 9k LP. Your actually getting less for your time by doing this than by raiding ant hills on your main.

These paticular "exploits" are not game breaking and overall aren't too useful. Even if you gain enough cow hair to make yourself the wizard of oz you still have to wait 2 days to get the Lp from each of them. Granted the cow hair only takes 1 att so it's good still. The other exploited, ive been told, has been going on for a long while and it's not likely to be fixed for a while.
