Tea;
You are advocating hard work and effort and it frustrates you when others get something for nothing. It cheapens the experience for all.
I wholeheartedly agree and understand. But I think you are jousting with windmills on this topic. Why rant on people who exploit the archers range behind a defensive barrier? This is how wars were won. It is a legitimate strategy. If you want to rant on people who do not deserve the gear they have, how about ranting on people who use cash to purchase super experience pots or gold to buy that shiver drop?
There are lots of other ways people shortcut effort. I don't mind the shortcuts, I just want to be recognized as someone who has not done it. Feel free to shortcut the system just dont compare yourself with others who did it the hard way. Currently there is no way to know the difference.
I still disagree Brother, respectively speaking about the "legitimate strategy." If you buy IAP's (In App Purchases) it's certainly a short cut, but that shortcut supports the game and the company and can by some rationalization be made to increasing the betterment of the product. It is without a doubt the short cut to the real work, and that can't be denied, but there is a gain traded toward the future of the game.
This action is going out of the game's true mechanics and exploiting a flaw in the gaming code system to cheat. It isn't a short-cut, it's a true out of bounds arena where you not only gain, but any other person who has done it the right way is pulled into your action passively. It's not a legitimate strategy, they are glitching the mob. Shivercowl can fire ranged attacks and could in a real game scenario fire over said barricades. It's a lvl 100 6 star boss. They aren't drawing up a plan and using ingenuity to craft a better battle plan. This is glitching the mechanics to no longer correctly function and then gaining from it. It's like stacking a deck in apples, or using inside-information in trading, it's setting up a scenario in which you can not possibly lose and then "playing."
I don't feel like I'm jousting with windmill's because Arawn has always been a community run tightly by it's leaders and it's players. And we as a community have worked to eliminate KS'ing, scamming and various other malcontents. This to me is just another issue of bad player ettiquette poisoning our game. And I argue against it because it lowers our overall worth. And it's something we all can control.
