    Nothing, since I stopped playing when I saw the exchange rate shoot up to 500:1 and the details of the exploit being made public. A rollback seemed the only viable response, so it didn't surprise me. There is nothing else they could have done.

    I don't understand the requests for a full wipe, as this rollback will address probably most of the damage, and the rest can be sorted out more easily. I also don't understand the requests for doing nothing, because that would have left the economy and the credibility of both AD and Zen in shambles. 7 hours rollback is a near perfect compromise, in my view.

    The rollback is only going to hit the tail end of the exploit. The people who have been exploiting it since the gateway went live will likely not even notice it.

    Well this is only an educated guess but i farm nodes 3 hours daily and craft for about 2 hours or until the amt of AD I earned from the previous day depletes......coupled with sales from items crafted and selling raw mats in bulk...


    I am guessing about 200k ad for the loss of the gaming day and about another 150k for the roll back....Loss of mats purcahsed was my biggest concern...I purchased 200 low tier crafting crystals for only 20k af and a few other rarities...those , to me, are the big loss.

    It is not a whole lot but it does matter to me.
    Today we fight the GAULS......monstrous and HAIRY beyond reason.

    It's not really about how much I lost in 7 hours but how much I will lose in the coming months due to unfixed known exploits, brb requesting full refund.

    Losing about 3 levels I think, from 57 to 60. Maybe a bit more or less, I didn't pay that much attention to the time yesterday.

    alot of you cry and act like they took something away from you like this was real life.. Many of us will shrug and say OKay at least we didnt get wiped and once they start looking at targeted accounts maybe the economy can be repaired. alot didnt loose much because we work for a living and play this for fun a hr or 2 a day and maybe a tad more on our weekends.

    They knew the exploits existed since day one, I did not and I invested in a game I thought would be fun and now the economy is trash and won't recover what I had is no longer worth what it was originally and this is due to exploits not general decline/stabilization in economy the roll back and server down time is just icing on the rotten cake, please go.

    Your zen will be there when things are running again.

    I just hope they keep track of zen transfers as I right before the server went down charged 40$ of zen..

    Nothing. The seconds I saw that the exploit was as big as it was, I logged out and won't log back in until it is all sorted.

    Something like 10 levels or so.

    If you made 10 levels in 7 hrs then the rollback should be seamless to you and you will be 60 by Wednesday.

    I saw the whole debacle on the forums before I started playing, and given that I immediately could tell that a rollback was the only way to solve this, I refrained from playing at all between 5am and 12pm.

    Might've lost some crafting I did from the gateway. A few tasks. Nothing important. I'd even spent all my celestial coins yesterday.

    Lucky you! I fu**in grinded the **** out of the Tier 2 instances and will be losing my weapon, a TON of drake seals, my ioun stone will lose all his levels, like ~ 5 epic tier 2 items, a lot of painful profession progress, and last but not least THEY lost a customer.

    Here's another funny story: I posted the following ONCE in the ******* zone chat: "WTB 3 Vorpal Shards". The result was that I got 24h chat-banned since some fa***ts seem to randomly report people in the chat. I'm curious to see if my chat rights get revoked or if the duration will reset? I wouldn't surprise me.

    Regarding the economy: 7 hours won't help if we see those ******* exploiters running around again in 72h, what will be most likely the case.

    Thanks PWE for stealing my time.

    Little or nothing.

    I had trouble sleeping last night, so I might have been on for a brief time while the chaos was unfolding, but not long, if at all.

    Today I had things to do. By the time I got home and settled in to try and play for a while, things were long since shut down and the forums in an(other) uproar about the end of the world, so I spent a while reading up on the issues and losing faith in humanity and remembering why I shy away from guilds based upon some wildly inappropriate comments.

    Really? I report people for chat spam the first time I see a wall of purple links to the HAMSTER they should be selling on the AH. That's literally why it exists.

    So you probably got what you deserved there Xozalol. Ask for a trade channel if you want to stop being reported by people like me.

    I wouldnt be suprised if some multiboxing troll isn't sitting around reporting people in chat just to be a ******

    Everything.

    Me and a friend started playing yesterday, got up to level 11 or so. We ain't got a lot of time for Neverwinter as it is, so to lose what would be an entire day of gaming for us, pretty **** major.

    I'm losing 10 levels or half a day of work.

    Seeing how I work full time I rarely get the time I want to play. And yesterday was one of those days where I actually had the time to play and now it's all getting rolled back.

    Anyway I am happy that they are not whiping it, if they did I would have left.
