I think it's cute that you imply you guys were "entirely within legitimate game mechanics". Very cute indeed.

Yes thank you for making my point.

funny .... noone here is exploiting according to EULA.

Goons or this guy are just using gaps in systems..... and I guess goons were not banned for bashing FW, because it was bashed by poor CCP development and zero support/oposition from CSM.

You Will need

A character capable of flying a Tengu / Tier 3 BC (standings and faction irrelevant)
Several TLF alts with L4 mission access



Yes anyone can enter a FW plex this is in line with not creating a safe haven in low sec for people to run these sites with impunity and anything can be done in this game with the proper number of alts including making billions per hour.


IHaveCandyGetInTheVan69 wrote:


The ability to farm missions in 1 system without having to travel anywhere or worry about being killed.

If done well the ability to acquire up to 500k LP / hour (~2.5bn ISK)



Again ANYONE can enter a FW mission so I don’t see how you are safe from being killed. Also I do not see how a nine jump journey to or from the systems you stated is " not traveling anywhere " this alone could get you killed. Even if they are destroying their pods this is isk down the toilet not a very effective way of traveling if you ask me.

Accept several missions on several alts in Olfeim. (The L4 TLF agent in Olfeim only gives missions to Tzvi)



Again ANYTHING can be done with any number of alts this is nothing new and your statement of " this agent ONLY gives missions to Tzvi " is incorrect.

Even if what you say about a agent is correct ( but i have tried it with ALL the agents and have been sent to other places apart from Tzvi quite obviously there is some overlap but nothing indicating anything being BROKEN ) this is not the issue I am seeing with faction warfare.

The issue I am seeing with Faction warfare is the fact that any side ( assuming proper system control of the area ) can go from tier 1 to 5 in the space of a few hours but hay you guys do not want to admit this... RollRollRoll

That's because this method no longer works, as of today.

Does that :smug: mean that everyone who partook in what can only have been a bug, the use of which is an exploit, are banned for a month and will have all their ill-gotten gains confiscated? Smile

I'm glad that this critical, game breaking issue was dealt with swiftly by CCP and that FW has finally been hammered out into a flawlessly balanced game system that's fun and rewarding for everyone.

Poor Goonies lost trilllions of ISK or so I was told after an exploit was fixed. It's only fair if the users of this exploit lose some too. Bear

I'm sure the players who partook will have their illicit gains removed if this was indeed an exploit.

I think the problem lies in poorly thought through game mechanics. (I mean the goon exploit was obviously going to happen, I even chatted about it with others but never put the effort in to find the items with silly 'values' or work out how to manipulate them)

This is clearly an exploit as if agents were only supposed to send missions to one system they all would, don't pretend this is 'working as intended'.


And yes Sreegs is the blunt tool that comes in to defend CCP's eHonour after they invariably screw up (ATX, FW etc..) and generally posting as if there is some kind of award for beating DCM at [the one that isn't - ship-toasting]


yay! referenced in another post!
