So, how many times are scripting guilds going to get to take rally quest today...

Fey Forest's Luminous guild already got it 3 times already today, courtesy of server crashes/resets. Meanwhile, my guild keeps getting kicked out of our dungeon, consuming our entries and not getting completion for guild quest.

    Dungeon entry reset would be nice since servers have been unstable all morning T_T

    The procedure to accept the rally quest is just flawed making it incredibly simple to "macro" it. You don't even need a script. So much for the fun everyone was looking forward to =(

    Shouldn't even call it macroing or scripting; it's cheating, plain and simple. Dunno why it's allowed to go on like this when the rewards for these quests are so good. Maybe the GMs have no way to enforce it.

    Get rid of rally quests = no more exploit
    It's a bad system.

    remove guild gathering quests too for DAGON sake!!!!

    The gathering quests aren't bad, gives people a reason to do gathering and putting more mats available in the broker.

    I'm not convinced you can script the quest when servers are crashing. This is more a case of a monster PC that loads into Tera faster than the average pleb PC.

    such baseless accusations :)
    could it be maybe teh guilds who didnt get the quest just werent fast enough O.o O.o
    nahhhhh thats impossible every1 else must be using scripts haha :p
    maybe those guilds that didnt get it should re schedule their 1 hr coffee break to some other time rather then right before rally quest pops heheh o:)

    Go to bed, Luminous, you're drunk.

    It is allowed because @Spacecats said:

    There have been reports and rumors of players using bots/3rd party programs to exploit the Rally quests, but there has so far been zero evidence to back up that claim. If any of you have some, please open a ticket with Customer Support and provide all the information you have.

    So unless you can find any solid evidence, I.E. a SS/Video of someone running a script, no action will be taken.

    It's dumb, but sadly, nothing we can do until BHS comes up with a fix.

    And we all know how that goes.

    I have monster. Can affirm this ^ is true.

    I am curious to know of why EME is not punishing the guilds that are abusing this quest, I haven't seen anyone being banned so far.

    Awful example of publisher's behavior by incentive exploiting without any sort of punishment.

    Yeah they should do something about it
  • AventiaAventia ✭
    5th rally quest completion coming right up for Fey Forest. One guild is just reaping it in today.
  • AventiaAventia ✭
    Fey forest down again for 5th or 6th time. If someone is DDOSing the servers, they're doing a very good job.
