    You're absolutely right. It's not like they cheated their way through medical or law school and are scourging society with the results of their laziness or anything. (Although, in my experience, people with the propensity to cheat will do so in most aspects of their lives.) And it's not like cheating in TW, which alters game economics for everyone, or even (allowed) noob powerleveling that creates a mass of unskilled players at high levels.

    My annoyance is mainly with the arrogance of people who buy their way up and then flaunt it. Or, in this case, cheat and exploit a game coding error, then tell other people to hush up, and suggest they're either too poor or too stupid to cheat as well. I, among others, simply enjoy the sense of accomplishment that comes from leveling the honest way, and I recognize that may be hard to understand for those who think leveling faster is more important than enjoying the journey.


    I completely agree with this. I quit playing PW on my main and only do MQ now. For fun my in-game husband and I make new characters and level them up together until we get tired of them and in most cases the beginner areas are completely empty. We are playing pretty much alone, because all the noobs are in FC getting power leveled (and later have no idea how to play their toons). It's really sad. Why are they playing a game they apparently don't really want to play?

    (Of course, I play Lotro and EQ2 as well, because you CAN do regular quests in EQ2 to get to cap. I'm a lvl 90 Fury in there.)

    I sent in a ticket about it. I told them step by step instructions on how the glitch works. I gave them lots of information on it. It seems by their response that they didn't know much about it at the time. I believe my account was banned though, because I admitted to participating in it for a couple hours. They are working on a solution currently.

    They are lying. They knew about the glitch. Because this is at least third thread about it. I'm not surprise about their lies.

    They probably aren't lying, there is a lot more then 1 person that handles all the tickets, and who never does anything with the forums. They have many people handling all sorts of stuff so that particular person probably doesn't know that handled the ticket.

    Honestly, you will probably get a ban for using this glitch, but in all honesty who cares? You do a month's worth of FC in one session, then get banned for 1 week, maybe? seems pretty advantageous to take that trade.

    Edit: also, w/ the amount of exp you can obtain from this, you can easily power a good high lvl genie which can sell for 4-5 mil...Those people who wasted all that exp getting to 105 could have sold genies and made 100 m + in profit...which buys you stuff WAY more useful than 3 levels worth of stat points. Sadly most players are lvl'ers not merchants... >.>

    let me put it this way: I HAVE NEVER SEEN YOU. I don't give a **** what level you are

    period.

    I stick around FC and I'm constantly looking at who's around, you leveled out of nowhere.

    I smell a nerd rage! Lol

    You dont have to be outside FC to get into it. Just us the illusion stones inside Archo. After your done with the run use a tele stone to which ever city you choose.

    I wanna see how many dragoons I can take on b:cry

    Tbh Idc if ppl use this glitch. After seeing one of the pictures posted, it looks more fun than anything in this game atm. So really, I dont blame ppl for doing it. Either for the exp, or the fun.

    If they can do it, go for it. Not like it's gonna make a huge difference anyway's b:bye

    I tested before I leveled to 103 on my own 102 cleric. Going up a level above someone is like equiping a DOD and a DOT, 5 extra stat points and some extra HP and MP.

    Sure its only 1% extra damage or 1% less damage but it all adds up. Im sure at 105 Im gonna notice the difference.

    Also leveling is extra nice for non AA's as the HP boost soon stacks up, with buffs etc.

    I was gonna get 104 before this glitch in a couple months, now I guess if I'm lucky I can speed that up a bit.

    This glitch has been here for a while, so far as I've been told, it became more popular lately.

    You realize the game is RENTED, yet you still come here QQing & demanding actions...


    I'm sure they have reported this to the devs; nevertheless, unless I'm mistaken, on the CN version FCC is not used for lvling, so the dragoon glitch would not be an issue there... So nothing much for the devs to fix... & since most patches come from CN while our GMs mainly just put up sales & "pretest" (._. or so they claim & to what extent, as can be seen by a lot of mess ups).

    I doubt they will fix this soon.



    As for this being bannable: the only way for them to find our is if the users themselves self reported, or the GMS having to stalk around 24/7 the ppl you don't like & claim lvl too fast & you have not seen them around FCC much...

    If they would just FIX the damn glitches when they first get noticed, no one would need to get banned. It's like your mum setting out a hot plate of cookies and saying "don't touch those or else you'll get grounded". Like they sit there and tempt you with the **** and then yell at you for doing it.

    I have just explained why this might not get fixed any time soon, besides the usual "GMs don't do ****" or "They don't care!!" posts.


    Personaly, I don't care if someone uses this or gets to 105 & I don't.

    For all of you QQ'ing about the fc glitch just let me tell you it's NOT A BIG DEAL, there's worse sh.it to work on then that, i did the glitch myself and it's 1st not that hard to do(go do it yourself and stop QQing, if you dont know HOW to do it and thats why your QQ'ing get informed), 2nd just another expensive way of lvling and its actually better for those that cant afford playing the game 24/7 and do 10 fcs a day(20 if really no lifers) , 3rd most of the times the glitch itself will bug and fail, party whipes will happen and the exp aint that good if not done right, its nothing that breaks the game in anyway since its not like u get 50% everytime you do it at 10x.............

    Yes it does need to be fix , but i don't understand why your saying it will break the game and get people to lvl 105 Oo because people that did 10-20 fcs per day we're just lvling as fast as the people doing the glitch

    Oh god while i keep reading it get worse, for those of you that think they spawn like 80(do you think anyone can tank 80 dragons?-.-'') you fail, 40+ you fail, 30 +- your right in the spot(if the glitch itself doesnt bug) even after that the ridiculous amount of stun locking +mobs hiting who ever is tanking aint certainly for lvl 90- if not 99- even then its not like doing the pull before the last fc boss, it takes timmings and good team work(skill test imo), here sins suck so yeah its way more fair for the other classes, sins can just go solo fcs and get the same exp. And saying you can get 100-105 in weeks is just .... no words for it( dont want to get deleted), do you know the ridiculous amount of exp you need after 100? imo this just balances the lvling up sistem, before only sins could get that exp in solo now you can get it by glitching where sins aint needed at all so yeah... go QQ at something that actually needs fixing and not this.

    The thing people need to realize...is that in the CN version, FCC is not somewhere you can use hypers at, so the glitch doesn't matter except for giggles. If Devs come up with a fix, it would just be something for this version. You all saw how long it took for them to come up with a PWI-only DQreward system. This is why it'll take a long time to fix as well.

    Or would you rather that hypers not be usable in FCC here as well?

    This is around the limit before your computer crashes, about 500. Good luck killing that when you're getting 0.5 FPS. Far more challenging than delta.

    Yeah...... Because anyone would survive that, the glitch itself is like 5% of this mobs, this SS is fake and gayb:bye
    And people saying that the players who use this glitch should be banned/roleback(just wtf do you even know how much work it would mean to the devs) where does it say we can't do it? even with the gms response they never said its bannable in anyways. And where did you think ppl learned this from?(Apart from random ppl sometimes doing it) from the Chinese pw version and if im correct pwi answer to pw chin so if they havent done anything in china why would they do here?

    Seen an alt get to level 100 in 3 hyper sessions....seriously b:laughb:avoid

    Oh and to lure a **** ton of mobs...well...there is a way to do it....1.5-2% a pull with all lvl
    100-102's (exp is cut by 50% once a level 103+ is put into a squad) b:shutup

    At the comment above me...Comp's have crashed with that many and I have seen it done with that many before (but scary as hell LOLOL), like I said, not that difficult to spawn a HUGE amount BUT you better have the puller be 100% intelligent and geared and a squad that can kill in 1-2 hits.

    I am 50/50 on this entire dragon issue in FCC :/

    There is a fair amount of ppl=squad who can handle 100 or so, quit failing so much.

    The amount of mobs is all in the timing and the skills you use. Ive known poeples clients crash and log them out.

    omg FuriousRico you think that a barb can only hold on to 30 goonz lol besides the fact with a zhen squad the mobs wouldnt last long not as if they going to take 5 mins to kill.
    i can easy handle the last 15 goonz after heads on my own now u have a barb with more phy defence a psy and bm them goonz no matter how many there is are not going to last long at all so you could handle as many as you want to try.
    People could say that it was unfair the change from hypers having no pause limit then pwi changing it to 10 pauses but this was an item pwi made and just changed its use now this glitch was no intended for people to spawn goonz and hyper for 1hr and get from lvl 100 to 104 in no time at all, theres a difference.
    P.S to Psytrac the reason u never seen me near fc is because i was 105 in feb this year before you even started the game

    I think PWI need to just embrace this glitch. It sells charms, hypers, and quickly leveled characters need their new rank stuff.

    Or they should just remove hypers. Saves the trouble for everyone.

    Im not saying a barb could only hold 30 mobs but 500 is impossible to glitch and unless everyone was OP with pots charm etc i doubt anyone -90 would be able to kill 40+, and besides to get so many mobs you'd need to glitch it multiple times, and the people that can actually get that amount of mobs dont really need to lvl up anymore.
