    Right because since you're continuously using the same skill, not losing any fury, and paying for you to be able to abuse this glitch, you think you are free from any harm or credit for what you're doing.

    Please, for the sake of everyone here, either stop playing or stop glitching - and I mean that to everyone. It doesn't matter what race your character is, what matters is that you are still abusing a glitch or a bug/defect in the game.

    this makes me wonder whether u've played an archer up to lvl 59 at all, or even taken a look at an archer's skill tree. from the skill description, it takes 2 sparks to cast, and mana to maintain. not losing fury over time should be how it is amirite?
    Consuming 360 mana every 3 seconds, release countless arrows into to the sky delivering devasting damage to the target and enemies within a 8.4 meter of radius the target, inflicting base physical damage plus 110% of weapon damage plus 2627.2. Skill will not stop until you click cancel button or press ESC.

    Requires 3 arrow, bolt or shot.
    Requires 2 Spark.

    idk why u guys think this is a glitch. as long as the archer has mana and 2 sparks to start out with, it should keep channeling according to the skill description? again, how is this any different from dragon's breath that wizards have?
    The power of the Fire God surrounds your body in a blazing vortex. All enemies 12 meters around you suffer constant Fire damage. Consumes 120 Mana every 3 seconds, inflicting Fire damage equal to base magic damage plus 1225.4. Casting will not stop until Mana is depleted or the spell is cancelled.

    Requires 1 Spark.

    yes the 'flying-while-sending-flying-pet-to-attack-gouf' thing is the exploit in question.
    imo this is a programming error which they either dont want to fix or cant be bothered to fix and instead chose to punish the players who either intentionally or accidentally triggered this 'bug'.
    well done GMs.

    GM's,

    Please take note:

    Bugs/Glitches MUST BE FIXED.

    Banning players that take advantage of the glitches is just a band-aid solution.

    If the player can do it in-game, then it shouldn't be the player's fault.

    If the player's doing what-he's-not-supposed-to-be-doing in-game, then it MUST be FIXED.

    yeah this thread is stupid... the skill is glitched because it ends when the mob dies when its not supposed to. bypassing that error by dueling is not a glitch, its a sort term fix... END OF STORY

    1. Venos using glitch to kill 3 bosses doesn't earn GM any money.
    2. Archers using "glitch" in zhen parties earn GM tonnes of money. (ex. 3 DD archer, 1 Cleric, 6 exp scrolls = approx 5 gold/hour)

    You make the decision which one will be banned.

    Mods, please close this thread so people stop necroing it! GM Xarfox settled this debate back on page 21, and the thread is so huge that no one bothers to read it before necroing and restarting the whole pointless argument. Here's the quote:

    We are currently communicating with the devs regarding this issue.

    As it stands right now, the skill description reads that it's supposed to continue until canceled or until the user runs out of mana.

    Currently the Wizard AoE spell functions properly. You can target a monster or a player, and after the target dies the spell continues, as stated in the description.

    We will not be banning archers for using this ability for Zhenning as the skill description states that the skill is supposed to continue until canceled.

    Be assured that we're looking into this issue and doing our best to communicate your concerns to the developers.

    PWE has spoken. No exploit, no bans.

    Once again: Mods, please close this thread and end this nonsense.

    Hey! I don't like being called no one. b:sad

    Completely agree with you that it needs to be closed though. I don't see why the "debate" even continued once xarfox made a statement.
