[ABUSE] Giant Camp in The Rift

Bouldercleave

I feel you on this one. It's the ONE world boss that I can not complete the achievement on because the group that is there will not let the mammoth die.

I'll have to wait until the event dies down and find a group to finish it.

I hear people talk about it in zone chat. That's when I run over and slap my deeps all over the mammoth. The hilarity that ensues after I kill him is magical. I always say, "sorry, needed the clear, it's my first day."

Doing Stendarr's good work!

People plz, think of the trauma that poor mammoth is going thru.

Watching its master and protector constantly being mowed down by hoards of people over and over again, unable to help in anyway. Put the poor thing down, it's suffering so needlessly.

Same here, the lovely taste of tears. I've been called some very interesting names. Maybe I should camp there and do it more often.

Thanks, we'll take a look. We're going to sink this thread while everything's being investigated (for hopefully obvious reasons).

The one that should be investigated are the final decision makers at your headquarters. This is what happens when you turn a game into a grind fest. It's your own practice of forcing players to grind bosses for loot sets that encourages people to do this.

Perhaps you should allow us to properly craft our own sets with crafting stations instead of grinding bosses for our armor? This would save a lot of headaches in the near future.

You just have to grind the bosses or "other factor" to gain the Armour/Weapon tokens"new item" to use to make a certain set Armour piece

Nope. Just remind them they are exploiting the game and possible subjected to a ban unless they let you kill the mammoths lol.

The real problem (dont care if they farm loot... whatever) is that for those people trying to get the achievement/complete their map these farmers will actively try to prevent you form doing that. I had to get in a taunt battle with one of them just to clear my map yesterday. They were really rude.

It's an exploit and should be treated as one.

Sounds like real fun to me. I would much rather grind bosses for my gear rather than to craft it myself.

I agree

Wait... why do people do this? Plunder skulls have a cooldown and the armor sets aren't worth using.

Easy fix everyone go there and kill the mammoth. You will see some serious rage, the text chat will light up so fast you won't be able to keep up. The only time I do it is when they really start loading up the chat with insults and threats. It's funny as hell.

Guildies to cause trouble *check*

It's only an issue when it's not him doing the griefing.

Please permaban them all for exploiting, just like the people that got banned for gap closing did.

Dunno, grinding CP and sell no cooldown boss loot for gold and keep the occasional purple items with good traits and skulls as fast as you can possibly get them?

But other than that, yeah, no reasons ...

For what it's worth, the team was already aware of this issue before it was reported here, and also remember that Plunder Skulls have a slight cooldown as it is.

So exploiting is officially supported? The plunder skulls weren't the issue the OP raised.

Where did you see them say they support exploiting? Lol. People need to chill, I honestly don't know how people make it through the day when such insignificant things bother them so much.

Your mentality is harmful.

kevlarto_ESO

And the players that at there exploiting this are so nasty and rude if you come through to get the achievement one time they start name calling and harassing you for just playing the game, I think I reported four of them the other day, not that it will do any good, but geez they are so greedy people just passing through one time is not going to kill the spot, they can go right back to exploiting after we pass through, shame really.

TheSeer

I actually witnessed this and the group got pissed when I killed the giant and ended it all.
