Pretty happy about the end result. I'm not big on farming, and I was ranked like 56 in my cabal (I'm not in a cabal) so its nice to see that you still get the cool vanity things
It was an exploit, no matter from which angle you see it.... I was playing it and I saw people doing it, it is revolting specially in a game like Secret World in which everything compels you to feel the game more than to play to win... I do consider TSW a masterpiece of writing, storytelling and mood setting and with a very good player base to support it. It is not a WoW or a PvP only game.... Therefore I got myself very angry with all douchebags exploiting a mistake made by FUNCOM (as a robber exploit a mistake by someone who let the backdoor open, as someone has apppointed), transforming TSW in something that it is not.
It is exploiting, it is digusting because if you are doing it you know it is not suppose to be like this... Unless you are really, really dumb... Soon I saw it happening I reported it to Funcom, with no answer... I took screenshots and all...
I really think FUNCOM should be more drastic about it... Its not about a pet and a title only, but cash from the loot specially... I saw people doing it for hours and hours, the cash they won was HUGE (probably). They should get to the logs and AT LEAST remove the money from this people. This money income to the game world can have negative impact on the economy....
This wasn't a very bad exploit. A bad exploit was when me and three other people had full 10.4 talismans and weapons, and full 10.4 glyphs in them. We also had full purple enchants on everything.
Did I mention this was before the first addon patch?
Hurray for cartwheeling through walls and farming heroic bosses without getting locked out. We farmed around 700 tokens a day and never got caught.

Yeah pal, before 1.1 there have been 3 Nightmares Dungeons. And with the lockout mechanic you could run them just once a day.
Cartwheeling was a serious problem, but you needed to do this for a bunch of weeks every day to get anywhere near "full 10.4"
Sooo, I'll call your story BS. But you know that anyway
So wow...the game is clearly hurting far more than I thought it was.
I dont think I killed more than 20 yet I was awarded the Hero of Ages title and even got a Hatchling pet. So either my dimension has a really really small amount of players, or they didnt take part in the event at all...I mean I only started playing a few weeks ago and didnt know anything at all about the event. And as stated before, I only found out about the "exploit" right at the end and was basically only "Looting" what the bots werent.
Crazy...

Nope. There are leaderboards for these events, and chances are, 90%+ of the top players for this one were botting or exploiting.
So they may as well give the reward to everyone, instead of combing though possibly hundreds or more logs.

Please, Read again the op. The reason this thread exist is because EVERYBODY got the title and the pet because of exploiters....
P.s It's not a "Horrible Daemonic Pet" I'ts just a stupid moth...

The devs should have known that mobs will kill themselves when entering a safe zone.
this just shows how bad things go there.
