This player is exploiting the SHITE outta the game stun locking bosses so they cannot even attack back.

Such a shame GGG that you are letting 1 man openly exploit and break game mechanics without any punishment.

I say give this guy a lesson GGG and give him the ban stick - give him lesson to not do game exploits like perma stun anymore. He knows it's broken but keeps using it.

Not to mention he admitted on stream that he used d2jsp (the banned trading site). His stash should be empty'ed and distributed to low lvl players.

since when perma stunning is exploit? seriously...

Lol

Krip said on stream that he talk to Chris Wilson via skype, and explained the build, and he told him it will get nerfed. So OP dont waste time, he is not gonna get banned. And even if he didnt talk to Chris.
I mean this isnt the first time he figures out a breaking build, he did it before and nothing happened.

And if we add the fact that he helped this game so much, and has a good releation with the developers... senseless thread here.

Arn't ARPG all about OP builds ... i mean i dont give a **** what other ppl do ... this is not an MMO ... there is no need for "balance" o.O

LOOOOOOOL WHY WOULD HE BE BANNED?

what do you mean "abuse"? you are an incredible monkey, stacking stun is an "abuse"? unreal

i'd ban you for exaggerated stupidity

lol OP so jelly :)))

Kripp is the perfect beta-tester! I wish Microsoft would employ him to find exploits in windows...

Don't underestimate petty spite. I happen to think he's an obnoxious and pathetic whiney little bitch and I'd applaud anything that made his day even marginally worse. I completely agree that it makes no sense punishing people for playing the game how it is laid out and using and abusing powerful mechanics; I just happen to think that this particular pansy should be subjected to all kinds of unpleasantries just because he's so impossibly annoying.

Don't underestimate my impotent internet rage. It's a powerful motivator :D

The whole point of BETA is to encourage players to exploit the game to find weaknesses and flaws in design and mechanics.

You think Diablo 2 got to the greatness it was without people abusing builds? It's how the developers find holes in their game. GGG will no doubt be using this build, and many others to greater balance the game for it's eventual 1.0 release.

Stop complaining man... just continue playing yourself and have fun with the BETA :-)

In diablo 3 you can get 3.0 attack speed and 70-80+% crit. A DH could them spam Lightning Bolt which stuns every time it crits. THIS ISNT COUNTING + to stun chance modifiers on gear. You can effectively keep anything in the game in stun lock. EXPLOIT!!!!!! /sarcasm

I really, really hope OP is a troll. If not....

An exploit would be bugging out NPC pathing by running back in forth over a crack or something. Just because Diablo 3 called breaking pots with goldfind an exploit doesnt mean they successfully changed the meaning of exploit in the gaming comunity. Sure he may be exploiting it in a literal sense via the definition of the word. But not by the definition that will get you banned by gaming companies.

Lack of oversight and a player playing the game the way it designed and meant to be played is not an exploit. They put all this stun stuff in the game did they not? Is he somehow bugging it out to get his stun higher than he should? No.

Normally I would agree with you.

But as this is Open Beta, isn't it the point to identify all the loopholes? If he brings certain overpowered mechanics to everybody's attention, isn't that good for the balance of the game in the long-run?

People too easily seem to forget this isn't Release, this is still Beta.

Agreed if he really uses real money trade sites like d2jsp he should get banned for this.
I dont think using OP builds are a reason for a ban.

But guys, this game IS RELEASED. There will be no release, just fixes and patches, as I know there will be no major anymore. They just wrote "beta" on it because of ongoing developement and people dont complain a lot about bugs when labled with "beta" ;-)

This is the only point he made.



In closed beta Ground Slam was the most dominating melee Skill for a long time because it did Full AoE damage and it had its own attack speed.

The diamond supporter unique Marohi Erqi heavily abused the old GS mechanics.
I am not sure but I think quality also supported permastun in closed beta before pvp patch.

Even after 2 nerfs Ground Slam is still a really powerful skill, it only became less used because ranged builds simply cleaned maps far faster.

So stop being fanboys to pretend he Krippers found anything. Ground Slam builds are ancient in terms of beta.
So are several Rangerbuilds around Split/Lightning and Poison Arrow.


There are several ancient builds that still work but got more expensive, due "mana patches".
The only build that got heavily affected and won't work anymore is the Multishot Explosive Arrow builds because the Explosions do less damage on Multishot and Piering doesn't trigger fuse charges anymore.

Poison Arrow is one of those builds that really expensive but never had a nerf outside of manacosts.
