The Elder Scrolls Online

Mass amounts of legendary regents and motifs make sense now.

After seeing and reading about the banking dupe i understand why we have been seeing people selling multiple of rare motifs and multiples of legendary crafting regents, at first i thought they were running multiple alts (concerning regents) but even with 8 going for say blacksmithing you are not going to have the odds enough to be able to amass 100 + legendary regents in the short time the game has been up.

Then we see people selling 8 Ancient Elf motifs and 4 to 6 Daedra motifs one day and they next they have just as many or more after selling out the previous day. Makes a lot of sense now and i hope they nail everyone of them to the wall for doing it :)

    Nail to the wall? Build them straight into the wall in a deep hole covered with lava on a different planet.

    Be more creative guys.
    How about flagging their accounts as cheaters which makes them unable to log on PvE maps and only leaves them campaigns where everybody can attack cheater flagged chars. >:)

    It is deeply disappointing that a bug this severe (and it is a severity impossible to express with words) was allowed into a release build; but even more concerning (although not surprising in the slightest) is the players who use it to their own advantage, regardless of how negatively it impacts the overall game, and thus every player in it.

    Selfish irresponsible fools. They make my blood boil over. How do they live with themselves? How do people rationalize cheating in this manner, especially when the effects on the overall game are unfathomably negative?

    Sigh.

    I think you're all forgetting something, this wouldn't be a TES game without major bugs at launch.

    HAH! So true!

    Which BTW is the reason I stopped playing Bethesda games since Daggerfalls. B)
    Hoped a new name wouldn´t bring back the old "Elder Scrolls" curse.
    I was obviously mistaken. :|

    Even so...cheating is cheating, and no phony excuse will change that.

    It is sad that some people are of the opinion that cheating is okay as long as the cheat is not discovered. The bug ought to have been reported immediately and not taking advantage of it.

    I agree with the posters who suggest to send the cheaters to the bottom of a deep trench....

    It's the "Guild Bank Situation". Some predict the apocalypse:

    Probably quite a few bans coming.

    What bothers me the most is that some people are claiming that this cheat was reported back in beta. If that is true, then I have little faith that dupers will get more than a slap on the wrist, if that.

    How do people even find these motifs? I know where they are supposed to drop and I have checked everything but the last time I found one was at Grathwood, 20 levels or so ago.

    From what I understand the best way to get epic & legendary is from the crafting minions (the guys you put skill points in). Level them all to level ~8, and put 2 points in each minion (as I think the third point takes like level 32 crafting or so, while the first 2 are very low reqs).

    I haven't had much luck though, probably opened 7 bags and got nothing but greens.

    EDIT: Whooops.

    Motifs are just random drops, usually found in junk, not from drops (ie lootable content, barrels, crates, dressers, etc.).

    I fully support banning all accounts that took advantage of this. I would even go as far as closing and banning guilds that had rampant use of this bug. I'm a responsible player who really enjoys everything the game offers and making gold isn't all the game is about. BAN BAN BAN! and if a roll back is necessary, while painful, I would accept.

    Well they also use "tavern bots" to farm motifs (or do it manually) which doesn't help.

    Anyway, if they have half-competent logging this should be extremely easy to track and ban for.
