Knox Box abuse

aureneeshie

So within hours of release of the new zen/ad grab there are Knox boxes for sale on the auction house with some players selling HUNDREDS of boxes. Really? HUNDREDS and not just by one player. Will this be a perma ban? will these boxes be removed from circulation or just left to further corrupt the auction house and the value of any of the rewards from these boxes? Or is it my own fault for not cashing in when the opportunity was there on yet another demonstration of the lack of quality control at Cryptic? Hundreds for sale and a limit of 5 boxes per account per week from WB. Awesome. As if I needed another reason to NEVER spend real money on this game or ever take it seriously.

They've already suspended them from the claims agent and are in the process of reviewing the logs. We'll find out what action they will take when they announce it.

Yep.

Most exploits recently lead to players getting some sort of very mild slap on the wrist, and come back to the game millions of AD richer [it seems to me].

Honest players get HAMSTER over time after time.

I got a Mythic Box legitimately ONE box from my 3 Knox Boxes. So will this get taken away? If so this game can really go HAMSTER itself.
