Dual Wielding 2h and 1h Abuse (6-11-15)

Dual Wielding 2h and 1h Abuse Notification

Suspended a player and his army for seven days for dual wielding a UW Zweihander and an offhand weapon. I'll be writing up a small addition to the player scripts to watch for this. It will log ANY such activity. If your name appears on the log, expect a seven day "vacation".

In case some people dont know, Hateborne and Akkadius arent shy about dishing out some ezcreds for reporting GAME BREAKING bugs, dont expect 100 credits because you figured out that bat wings are 0 plat and you can turn them in for free experience, cause see you in 14 years when you reach level 8 doing that. So everyone has a choice to make when they figure these things out, use them, and know for a fact that eventually your gonna slip up and get caught. or report them and get paid. EZ choice imo, use the exploit.

I dont do both, i TEST the exploit repeatedly many times over many weeks to make sure its a valid exploit. I dont want to be wasting akka or hates time theyre busy enough as it is. Now ive got testing to go do.

I like to test it and then report it. If I can't duplicate it then I got lucky.
If it duplicates then i'll report it and depending on what it is I will or will not use it.

Used the old pet method to get keys for 2.5 until someone mentioned that it's an exploit.
Reported the rogue epic effect stacking on the augs, kept using it to test when hate updates since it's not that big of an issue. (it's just increasing the dmg by a decent amount, not doubling it or anything and it only affects backstab) Hate has given up on fixing it and you do still have to farm up 2 epic augs for it so it's not like you get dmg for nothing.
Realised the possibility for exploiting the t5 mini and reported it, did not use it (also didn't test because hate confirmed it was an issue before I could) even though I REALLY wanted to use it to get rid of my remaining bosses for my 3 new toons.

Pets used to be able to dual weild a 2h and a 1h upto a few weeks ago. When I noticed this I didn't think much as all was lost was the spam from TS whip.

Hate removed the pets dual wielding 2h/1h a few weeks ago, intentionally.

Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything — you can't conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." R.A. Heinlein
