The other day I saw a group of my server’s players being farmed by one of the other servers. There were about 4 of our players tightly grouped in the water below the central weather node in one of those little quaggan homes being killed by 2 of the opposite server. They were all uplevels less than lvl 10.

I proceeded to kill the 2 enemies and revive my allies. Shortly after that, a third enemy lvl 2 player came to revive the 2 that were killing the 4, and this player totally ignored me. I then asked what was going on, and if he was part of this exploitation/character farming. He began to attack me, and of course I killed him. After that, they all logged.

It smelled of character leveling/wxp farming, but I figured I’d ask the forums if anyone might know what was occurring. Again, has anyone seen this behavior, and if so what were they doing?

I took some screens of it, but I’m aware of the rules about posting other players in such a case.

No, please post the screens! If you white out the names is it against the rules?

Before I even finished reading, I thought, man I wish you had posted screens. I’d love to see a bunch of upleveled huddling in terror in a quaggan home being bombarded from the outside.

I’m not even sure what you mean by character farming. Or why killing someone in a quaggan hut would be an exploit.

They are taking turns flipping the quaggans allies to farm wxp and standard xp.

OK, I edited the op for reference. I’m guessing there may be leveling services, or people selling characters leveled to 80, and also leveled in WvW. This occurred in WvW. That’s why I put it in this forum.

They weren’t working the node. They were well below it, from what I could tell, killing each other in a controlled manner. However, all the allies from my server were dead, and the 2 enemy were alive and not moving when I came upon them.
