From what I gathered this has been in the game for awhile so nobody really knows if anyone but ghudda or w/e his name is used it before.

Wait, this is from previous leagues too? GGG, for someone who cares about economy and anti- cheating so much, your punishments aren't that severe.
I'm a forum warrior, i was born to post, raised to defend my league. Now my post has been removed, chained and exiled by mods who Ban. Ban is my brother; i do not fear it. I see it in the eyes of men and beasts that i troll. It will take me to play the actual game when i am ready and i am not ready.

I dunno.

I think they have crash logs, so GGG would have been aware of it, had it been happening before it went public.

If they knew and didn't do anything about it....well then let the RMT conspiracy talk begin/continue.

But as far as I know, you're not a man, so I guess you're forgiven.

Why would you not gather accurate and readily available information before bothering to make a thread?


do enlighten me.

because if this "exploit" was indeed causing server-side malfunction, then the way I see it it's worse than RMT, multiboxing and "hacking" put together.
simply because neither of the above has a potential to bring an entire Path Of Exile application instance offline for an extended amount of time, thereby making thousands of players unable to play the game, and causing GGG thousands of dollars worth of direct damage in maintenance and data recovery costs.

and if that's true, the people doing it don't just deserve a ban.
they deserve Chris showing up in their front door, and handing them a bill with more zeroes in it, than Charan's donation.


It was single instance crashing.

Not an excuse.

Just not a fan of riling up the mob.

At this point, though, it looks like we're in for a nice game of telephone as the news spreads.

Should be entertaining in the least.

From what I understood from Chris posts on reddit, there are 2 "parts" of this bug.

1) If an instance crashes, there is this "small rollback" that doesn't save the EX, Vaal, Chaos, etc etc you apply to an item.
2) Vaal Gem way of crashing an instance.

The first part of the bug is known to GGG, thing is, they have to fix all possible ways of crashing an instance.

Maybe I got the wrong idea and I'm a potato.

Well form what i have read, the devs were already working on this when it went public. Also it was said IIRC Ghudda did not croos the threshold of abusing it so much that he gets perma banned. Which says they must be able to trach who all were doing it, and some people must be getting perma banned. Of course the Dev (Chris?) could have been bluffing to make them look good, who knows /shrug. The only ones that truly know, are the ones that abused the hell out of it, if there not banned, then there laughing right now, lol.

Quick, someone go stream themselves using Vaal Ice Nova in a Zana fracturing sea witch map!
