Invalesco's comments are exactly what I hoped would be the prevailing opinion of people who commented here. Unfortunately, people just can't understand the difference between playing PoE in the spirit it was intended and exploiting an oversight by the developers to bypass content. It really doesn't matter that making use of the bug took imagination and creativity, it's still something that people who have respect for the game wouldn't have taken advantage of, either directly or by playing with people who did.

Was use of the exploit and the ensuing fanfare worth it for that extra passive skill point or did you do it for the internet prestige?

My 2c while I'm bored and posting, the fact that it is an exploit should not be up for debate. It most clearly is.

Congratulations Franz! =)

Correction: congrats on being carried to level 100 by the abuser of an exploit. Indeed!

Tainted achievement of the year award.

Inb4 drama starts

Which exploit specifically? (So many exploits in this game :) )

burned miscreations with remote mine + cast on death support. pretty much you put the mine on the ground and then you put cast on death, and when the mine 'dies' (a.k.a is activated), you get a minion with 300% more dmg and 60% increased AOE at 20% quality that cast on death gives.

TLDR: you melt everything with a glitch, kthxbye.

It is not a glitch since people know it and devs do too. It would be fixed if it was a glitch. It works as intended. People find cool builds and use them, at the end they get nerfed, like dual totem RF spork and cba to post more. Enjoy OP build cuz they get nerf.

As quantum mechanics further proves idealism(a nascent idea Aristotle had), soon more people might be able to understand that those "more realistic" things you listed(and obviously prize), have the same effect on the human mind as video games =)

And if I lost 3 months of my life - I guess in the Heraclitean and Nietzschean way that I have gained something much more xOxO

Those are big words that I don't understand, but if you have the time/determination/skill to get to 100, congratulations for you.

But to use small words that i DO understand, go get laid bro :P

Some people will be virgins until like for ever. Some people dont have the will ... the mindset to change and do something better. They see us as trolls, but we are just telling them there are better things than this. Sure play the game, but dont abuse. It is with everything. If you smoke a lot you get cancer or if you drink a lot you get a drinking problem. If you train a lot you are doing it wrong. Get a lot of drugs you may die soon. Get lots of steroids for the gym you are playing with your life.

But do the things correctly, and you will be fine.

He is just a kid. But hey, one day hopefully he will realize that he just wasted the best time of his life, being young and being able to do what ever the fuck he wants. And if playing games is what he chosen, he will regret it later on.

Regrets will come.

See, tell to someone outside that you spend 4 months playing a game... see how they look you like ´´wtf this guy is crazy get the fuck away´´

Nono, it's not intended. You're supposed to have to die to use cast on death, and they will fix it. The issue is whether it's legit to exploit glitches until they are patched. There are some fair arguments to be made on both sides. Obviously the ideal scenario is that it gets reported and that the person who discovers it will pretend it doesn't exist and not tell anyone until it's patched. Realistically, for some people this game is a competition, they are playing to win, and they shouldn't be condemned for doing so as long as they aren't breaking any rules, which he wasn't.

Grats!

100 wow an impressive achievement :)

i am not gonna congratulate on this 'achievement'.

As quantum mechanics further proves idealism...

I get the whole `one's perception is one's reality' philosophy is quite popular these days, but I am uncertain as to how the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics specifically lends itself to idealism, let alone prove it. Care to elaborate on your statement? Additionally could you address these questions which do not contradict quantum mechanics but seemingly contradict idealism:

- Why should independent observers (i.e. observers at various points in space-time) agree upon results in an idealistic universe.
- And, as an extension to the previous point, why should entropy depend on perception?

Eh, I was refering to Schopenhauer's idealism not in the sense directly related to the things about which you mentioned(Heisenberg and how he believes unless something is observed by an independent viewer that it hasn't really happened which Schopenhaurer certainly agress with). But rather about how we take what our brain has perceived from physical observation(regardless of how this actually happens) and how this information is then matched up with our will's desires and then specific emotional responses are doled out depending on how the representation had aligned with our will, resulting in joy, sorrow, hatred, love etc etc. This is what I was referencing. How the world is actually observed and processed by our minds was of little bearing for what I was speaking. I was just trying to point out that things commonly considered to be fake can affect us exactly the same as the observation of things considered empirically real.

I hope that helps =)

Gem description:
You cannot cast supported Spells directly
100% chance to cast supported Spells on Death

Where does it say YOU are supposed to die and not something else.

I don't see it as an exploit. And remember, you are playing a game, and as long as you are not hacking or anything, what ever you do in the game is legit. And if the game is bugged, it is not your fault.

But that doesn't seem like a bug to me. Or they could specify better the gem description... like... 100% chance to cast supported Spells when you die.

Yea..

Dude, that's the point I've spent the last several pages making >_>
