Patch created a pretty bad exploit....

....im not going to elaborate on what it was but it made it possible to earn 200-300 skill points an hour for those in the know. It's been reported though so if anyone has been using it they wont pretty soon =p.

Really Anet needs to think some of their "resolutions" through before they patch them in. This was a pretty big forehead slapper of a trick too.

Tell us!

I could and all the "competetive PvP'ers" would immediately go mass abuse it. It's right there glaring at you in the patch notes for anyone to discover.

MM I can think of one way without to much difficulty. I am sure it wouldn’t take much to figure it out if you kept up to date on the changes in the patch.
As I like PvE more than PvP at this time I am not concerned about the skill points. Though I may try my theory out tonight after work.

smacks forehead and wonders if they have fixed it in the last few minutes as something was streamed in

well, I may know of what your talking about and if you are, hehe, I already tried it and it didn't work, it only got me one full xp bar, didn't work anymore after that. I think it's to accomodate those players who missed out on it, But I do believe it only works once, so unless you've already abused it, I don't know how you would know...different than I, anyway...

I didn't mean to, I swear, just wanted a few more skill points , don't flame me pls...
and it didn't work either which i'm glad, cause what they said in the patch worried me...

Can you re-ascend?

If we are talking about the same thing then yes it does work. Endlessly unless you mes sit up. but I couldn;t verify anyhtign now as alas "I messed up" trying to get a screenshot of it for the report.

Does it involve those new 3x XP scrolls?

No, it doesn't.

If it involves killing something with your char. who has a ton of experience in order to retroactively gain the skill points you've missed out on cause of the skill exp. cap, that's not an exploit. (damn that was a long-winded sentence)

You'd have about 10,000,000 gold if you told the right people how to do it, heh.

Nope this was done with a level 18 character.

Well, if you did spread it, then all the pvpers who are complaining of the grind will be happy, and we won't have any more complaining =)

Damn right.

You should tell it to everybody, then there would be no imbalance 'cuz everybody'd be doing it. Heh.

Hmm,

I must be pretty thick-headed. I just read through the notes again and didn't see it. Not that it matters for me anyway probably, since I'm only lvl 10, but still.
