    I found 4 interactable plants on the Risa map.
    Tt has to be that.


    But I can't find the mission in the hot list. Yeah, there is stuff in that cave for foundry, but the bots or whoever are not making the right sound.

    Maybe the tribble sound is covering it up?

    the better question is why? Voth ground battlezone is a goldmine as it is. There's being rich and then there's being absurdly rich. And besides, they've fixed the foundry exploits back when LOR launched.

    People find new ways to exploit the game, it is sad they have to do this and not play and earn it like the rest of us.

    OMG

    Thank you all for posting this.

    This made me laugh so hard tonight, and after my long day, I needed this.

    Those poor abused Tribbles in that dark and moldy cave.

    You brave captains who watched and took scans during this terrible tragedy are true heroes.

    Heroes of the Klingon Empire. Cuz we all know how they feel about Tribbles...

    If you withdraw a foundry mission, that still can be completed later and still gives you the reward.
    If you share a withdrawed mission, other people still can complete it for reward or can sharing back to you if you completed after sharing. This was the perfect way to hide your foundry mission at the previsious foundry bug, i dont know is it still working or not.

    If you see one of this tribble petting guy, use the search to find him, if he is idiot enough, you will see at search which mission he doing (if he dont hide himself from search or made other mission to primary, search will show the last mission he accepted i think, thats the name of the foundry he is doing, it will be like WSGDFSEFDGSEDEGE or something similar...)

    Well, i dont think other players can hear the sound of the foundry mission when he complete them, but maybe i m wrong about it.

    But, i m remember foundry loot timer dont counting with the time you are spending on a social map during your foundry mission, so there should be an additional trick, well i can imagine a trick for it... make a foundry mission, private map, just click 2 times and wait a day sitting there between the clicks, do it enough times to your mission start giving loot, than modify the mission just 2 click's on social maps, but it would be very fast to stop giving loot because of the short complete's, i m sure its not worth the time you are spending for it.

    Me too quite interesting about what are they doing, its a little Star Trek, lets investigate and and catch them.

    Thing is, since S9 was launched they added a new foundry wrapper mission that gives 960 dil and that has ZERO CD. It doesn't matter how much time your mission takes -if it is very short, you are correct that the missions inbuilt reward will decrease very quickly and end up not rewarding anything... However, the wrapper will reward nearly 1,000 dil each time so you could exploit this like MAD as it seems that these people are....

    didnt completed any foundry mission since s9 launched so i didnt tried that new mission, but i dont understand why that dont have cd than, and now i dont understand why they log out and log in back if thats dont needing to use the exploit.

    No, the 'Investigate Officer Reports' mission has a 30 minute cooldown.

    Or at least it's supposed to, AFAIK.

    Well i never play foundry thats less than 30mins, but all i know is when i turn in i can pick it up immediately every time...

    even if it was 30 mins thats still a fairly decent afk exploit.
    It would be fairly easy to mock up a keyboard script that accepts an exploit mission and the foundry wrapper, completes it, hands in the wrapper then waits 30 mins to do it all over again.

    Hell you could smash the refine limit whilst you slept, and devote the rest of your time to playing for fun rather than profit :)

    This is probably what the tribble cave ppl are doing.
    And actually I found another group on qonos, hiddent down a corridot alongside the northside of the great hall that goes nowhere (there must be an interact point at the door at the end of the corridor...

    Is that 30 minutes per character?

    And can it be shared with someone who has it on cooldown?

    I've never tried sharing a mission that's on cooldown but does being on cooldown block you from taking it via the journal or does it also block it from being shared?

    We should definitely check if it's possible. I'm at work right now though but if no one has tried by the time I get home I'll grab someone and see what happens.

    When you try to share a mission with someone who has it on CD, it just tells you they don't meet requirements.

    I haven't seen Dental in the cave. The person I saw multiboxing (whatever that is) was a member of a french fleet. The most familiar names down there are a few common offenders I've seen at SFA. One actually took time to play the game himself to grief me for like 45 minutes.

    Obvious troll is obvious.

    Too bad most don't see it like that.

    just because we laugh at it doesnt mean we dont want these idiots banned for their stupidity. and exploiting our beloved game.

    Why ban players for making use of an opportunity? They've done nothing wrong. If Cryptic doesn't want players to use this legitimate functionality, patch the code and move on.
