200k AP/H sitting afk at BB mine

    Is this the AP returns from that video that was just recently taken down though? If that's the case then people farming each other at a resource is of course going to yield a lot of AP, so this is a bit of an exaggeration of the AP gains from resources at the moment.

    That being said I don't agree with it either tbh, especially 6k AP for taking a keep/outpost lol, it's too damn high!

    Is this even catalogued as an exploit by Zos? If so would be nice if they ninja stalk those farming and ban them for the night.. shouldn't be too hard or cost lot of resources to track them down and find them..

    No this is about a resource that is giving 6000+ ap like a keep. :trollface:

    What's wrong with ressources and keeps giving a good amount of AP? In my opinion it should be divided by the number of people who captured the object, because 1500 seems a bit much for a zerg. However, taking them solo should give a good amount of AP.

    Edit: Nevermind... did not know this is bugged lol.

    If the OP was fighting at the resource he would have gotten more AP as well. As is, he got the flipping AP because the resource was flipped. If people "trade" then yeah, but all that takes to stop is a player/group to defend it.

    Actually its just a creativ way to earn Ap o:)

    But honestly its nothing else then open a keep and just flip it over and over again the amount of Ap will be still the same ;)

    And as far i can remember me Zenimax said to such free farm of Ap "Its just a creativ way to gain Ap", I wouldnt call it either as exploit.
    Just that the amount of tunring ressources and keeps to high is in comparison to kill a person or enemies.
    Cause you gain maybe max 100k ap/h if you are really good and farm really hard enemies...

    reminds me threads about exploiting vMoL for title and skin. And yes, there were plenty of people who thinks it's just fine. It's not an game killing exploit right?

    as far as I know there hasn't been a single comment from ZoS on the issue - which shows just how much they care

    Brian has spoken up about it
    So you don't think there is anything wrong with getting this amount of AP for literally being afk?

    I'm pretty sure you weren't fully AFK, or you would have been logged out. :tongue:

    Obviously who could say that if not another grand overlord xD why do u even care about this? I will tell u cuz u are greedy little... you know not everyone in eso can run bis builds have 8 alts and stay in cyro 24-7 killing ppl and stacking shields.
    Let me get this right.Are u blaming me for being able to kill people while using my class skill ? :P U know its possible right?Or havent u ever killed anyone all your time in cyrodiil yet ? :P They even made some proc sets so ppl of your skill can actually kill stuff now! Give it a go young pug! Grab urself a glorious xv1 kill ! I BELIEVE!

    I definetly will when have time, thx for info will chek it out tough i have a life need to do other things too. I know u dont know what i mean but its fine.
    Just funny to see on every forum thread ppl that complain about it are from same guild xD Coincidence? And i remember some ppl (not u) from ur guild playing magicka builds and having dodge chance all the time. definetly only 'skilled players' can do that.

    Many known ppl farming ap exploiting it right now liek saidenn, krazt and many others as i though ppl who actually exploit it arent new players but 'good players' they should simple get banned for 2 weeks. I dont know why zos let this happen all the time and dont ban ppl who exploit things in this game, i even know a guild who would go first.

    Personally, I fail to see the problem with it.

    *looks longingly at her Elder Scroll, whispering "soon, my precious"*

    Also, 190k AP only? Clearly, you haven't had the AP buff for the whole duration, nor repaired the tower wall, nor killed random pugs stumbling in on your shameful farm to boost the attack tick.

    "Earned over 130.000.000 Alliance Points in total" from your sig, good to know you work hard for it.

    Well, I really don't care for AP at this point, I have more than 30 million AP lying around across my chars. However ZOS never fixed anything if there wasn't enough of an uproar, so I'm trying to bring this issue to attention by pointing it out.

    A hypocrite is still a hypocrite even if he calls out a problem. Just sayin' man.
    Well, I'd say I worked fairly hard for the first 130 million AP.

    And now you gave up and started abusing broken game mechanics? If anything, youd think someone who hadnt earned 130mill ap the legit way would do this, but here you are pissing on your honest hard AP-work.
    I can almost understand you tho, the game is pretty broken and new exploits surface and resurface every other week, and old bugs and lagg is never fixed...but personally I would still not sully mysef like this regardless.

    ... man that 'logic'...

    he did it for an hour to prove a point and then reported it on the forums.

    I think you could benefit from reevaluating your critique.

    Okay let's be real for a moment .This thread has zero attention from the devs & mods who can address the problem to hotfix it in a day if that would be the big issue for them or just to let us know that they are taking care of it, but oh well. We all know how it goes with eso pvp - the best way to force devs to fix something asap is to make it public on the absurd level, so don't blame Sanct for what he did - that's just stupid.

    it still will take zos 6months + to fix a game braking bug.

    but if its a crownbuy issues its hotfixed in less than 24h.
