Sometimes I like to think Zenimax will actually do something to address these people but I know they won't. This is on the North American server.

    Scaling the trial down to a lower level.

    If the trial is CP 10, 20, 30, etc they'll still get leaderboard scores.

    It's unintentional.

    This is obviously cheating as the best dsa groups who have done this hundreds of times are barely over 45k score. This is not a "we are not very good so scalet it down so we have a chance" group, these people are scaling it low and tearing it up in there. Leaderboards need wiped and this needs to stop.

    Fear not, they will have no way to do this once One Tamriel drops!

    but it has been going on for weeks now and will continue for weeks to come until the Patch drops. It is an exploit and deserves some form of punishment. One person should not be able to complete vDSA and be in the top spot on the leaderboards. Last I looked (Its been a few days) 3 of the top ten positions were held by single players, not teams

    If Zenimax decides to punish them they will, assuming they haven't already and it isn't known they have as per their policy. Regardless, they cannot do it anymore once October 18th comes so their days of scaling vDSA are numbered.

    reward for vDSA leaderboard is a guaranteed master weapon as best i know
    Fear not, they will have no way to do this once One Tamriel drops!

    how will 1 tam dropping prevent the exploit? or have they said that this is getting patched with 1Tam?

    Nope I Have never run dsa veteran or normal. I am just stating that you can't call people cheaters because you don't agree with what they are doing.

    Honestly zos needs to get in front of these things when they come up and say yes this is against the rules or no its not.
    There has only been a handful of times I have seen them take any sort of action to notify people one way or the other.
    As of right now people are just guessing as to whether it is our is not against the rules. I personally would not take the chance but I could care less about leaderboard so there is that.
    Like when you could scale down SO and get max level items, it was supposedly unintended but apparently not against the rules because nobody was banned, warned, or any other action taken against them.

    But the thing is, this shouldn't be a thing. It's been going on since SotH. When ZoS takes months to fix things like this and the SO scaling exploit, it kind of makes end game PvE a joke.

    But it is an exploit, and depending how ZoS feels that day could result anywhere from no punishment at all or a permaban.

    If it correctly scales, then scaling off group leader will never happen again. That means everyone has to earn there *** for once.

    No more enemy levels so no more scaling dungeons down.

    The leader board reward at any level is a scaled master weapon?
    Do they get a 160 master weapon from the final chest?

    This makes me sad, no one should ever get on leaderboards in a scaled down trial. I really wish the leaderboards would be wiped now.
    Regardless of the fact that zos probably won't do anything or even comment on such, it is exploiting an unintended feature.
    You want to scale down vdsa by all means, getting cp160 gear or leaderboard score while doing it is just deplorable.
