    Not sure if these are the same people who were doing it earlier but the spot has definitely been reported. They can only get plunder skulls every 3.5 minutes still, but I think the giant still drops loot with no CD... either way, pretty crappy.

    What benefit does this brings? Isn't there a loot cooldown in place?
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    Not sunk but definitely heavily monitored. It's a bit pointless at this stage unless there's a hotfix as enough prying eyes have seen it to disseminate it to the rest of the community.

    Hopefully it'll force ZOS to act or accept that such things are happening until they fix it.

    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.

    Still nothing done about this?

    It's not just that they are exploiting. They are griefing as well. There are players who need this completed, but you can't complete it without killing the mammoth. And you can't kill that if someone continuously taunts it and lures it to reset.


    Is there any way you(ZOS) could make it so only the Giant needs to be killed for completion of the WB? Then people could continue to exploit it, as you are currently allowing, and the people who need it could still get credit as they would like.

    This will sound like a workaround, but taunt the mammoth and start smashing it. Mobs have a taunt limit, and when sufficient taunts happen from different people all aggro control abilities will fail for a time. If you're closest and doing the most damage (should be easy if they aren't trying to kill it), it will stay on you.

    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.

    The OP should continue to /hammer away at issues that interfere with his gameplay. It's very annoying when people deliberately cause grief to others.
