I neither duplicated, not bought any of these items. I however am a bit concerned with how Anet will handle this particular exploit. Anything other than taking the duped armbraces out of the game (and this is going to affect those who have paid for them) is going to be unfair to players.

If they have to roll back the entire game to "fix" this it would be 100% BS as players like myself who were completely oblivious to this until today have spent our time playing the game, leveling characters, gaining titles which would all go poof?!?

Hopefully it is dupe-free. Besides, look at all the insanely rich people now because of this.

All we need now is....

"2021 Armbraces of Truth have been sold to the merchant"

"Mallyx walks the earth"

How about they make the armbrace useless. The DoA trader now gives you something else that is not an armbrace, say....a Necklace of Truth. Obviously some people worked hard for their armbraces; so you can change your armbraces for the necklace but their is a limit on how many you can change. An amount of 2 limit maybe more~ or a time limit, all those with armbrace in the last 3 days can change them ~dunno just an idea.

No roll-back please, ANet!!! Just ban all who used this exploit! That's all we really need.

Rollback is not an option.It won't fix this even if they ban all players they can buy the game again do it all and use the exploit.And someone said a new char can do it so its even worse.rollback=angry players and no fix.the only rollback that will fix all this will be a 2 year rollback.Why things happen in good moments?Gw:en is coming and this.

Tanque Solution(lol):Make all players that trade ambraces of truth for anything(includes the collector that gives weapons)be killable in the outpost and get perma death when they die!This includes selin the ambrace to the merchant(if you can since i never had an ambrace).Of course they can't figth back.

YAY..I smell a tripple gemstone drop weekend comming up....

OH I think a lot of people are looking at armbraces are at fault, I rather think duping items are, I mean if it is just armbraces then make em customized (soz if someone said this).

I think the best way A-net can fix this is to give everyone who asks for it their own Vizu mini-pet. A-net if you give me a mini-Vizu I am willing to forget all about this sordid affair.

I cant belive someone can get to may Armbrace of Truth for a normal way...

If you dupe a Armbrace of Truth...
You can dupe anything?... ectos? safires?...
...

How fix it? i scared...

Reroll, not the answer to me...

How many stacks of armbraces, ectos, safires, diamonds... are in storage just now?

There's an in-game rumor that trading is now impossible. Can anyone confirm? I'm traveling with an ancient laptop, and it would take me fifteen to twenty minutes to try to confirm.

The claim is that trading now gives an error message. Could just be some yahoo that doesn't understand that you can't hold over 100k in your hands at one time.

- 1st guy uses reconnect feature (his Ambrance should be still in his inventory.

How to fix it: it's pretty easy! Just add checking for both seller and buyer are online after they both pressed Accept! Server needs just "ping" both before "make" trade.

P.S. Sorry for my bad English.
I'm sure they will fix or have fixed the exploit. The question now is how ANet is going to deal with the already duped items that players have in their inventories and flood the market.

And I don't know about you but my time is a bit more valuable to me that 1,000's of armbraces.

I pray Anet has more sense of fair play than that!
