soooo i herd you should black out the name.

but seriously its probably just someone who got out of pre at lvl 1, got ran a ton of places, never got in aggro of anything to gain exp so they would stay lvl 1.

As the person above me said, you need to black out the name because it's against the forum rule. Also, you should do a search because this has been mentioned before and it's possible by a legit method.

No it's not a hack, ever heard of runners? Most probably you did

Also possible that the char was teleported there during the GH glitch.

He's reffering to the title.

To be honest, i think he's refering to the r6 sunspear.

Theres another very similar char possibly owned by the same person. It's real and most likely used the gh glitch that got fixed ages ago.So was actually possible and anet did nothing about it other than fix the glitch.Waste of time reporting tbh,if that's what you're thinking

Since I can no longer see the link that the post was intended to address I can only speculate at what it contained. Judging from other people's responses, it seems another lvl 1 player was spotted in DoA, and had a rank 6 SS title.

So let's assume that I am correct. In theory it might be possible to have runners/rushers get you all the way through NF without any fighting. However, a quick check on wiki tells me that to go from lvl 1 to lvl 2 requires only 1000 experience points. Thus someone would have to make it all the way through the NF missions and primary quests WITHOUT gaining 1000 XP.

Submitted for your consideration, to legally get off Nightfall's noob island, Istan, a player must complete the primary quest "The Time is Nigh" as well as several other quests. This is true whether the character began in NF or in another campaign. This quest rewards 1500 XP on completion. Thus we conclude that it is impossible to reach DoA as a lvl 1 character without some sort of exploit or Hack.

In the current situation, I think its safe to conclude that character was teleported their by use of the Guild Hall teleportation glitch, which has since been fixed. However, Anet did attempt to roll back the unlocked zones from this glitch, so they probably would like to be notified of any players exploitations which they missed.

As for earning a Rank 6 Sunspear title on a lvl 1 character, this might actually be possible. In Securing Champion's Dawn, the player has SS bounties which I believe reward points to all players in the party regardless of whether or not they aggroed (though I have not double checked this). If indeed this is the case, a player could be repeatedly run through that mission (without ever completing it) to rank up the SS title. I believe the cap in the title that could be reached in this way is exactly rank 6.

So to all those who were critical of the OP, he does indeed have a valid point, as to see any character running around DoA at lvl 1 must indeed be a character to, whether knowingly or not, has exploited a glitch to their advantage, and as such should in my opinion be reported.

This thread has gone on long enough. I advise some of you watch your attitudes when posting (you know who you are).
