I’ve seen a ‘new’ exploit in Explorable Arah on the first (Ancients?) path. More or less, it is possible to skip all trash between the first and second boss fights by climbing a wall. This allows decent groups to get 8 tokens within 10 mins at most.

I saw it happen once in a group, and after dropping, I reported it in game. At the time, I thought it wasn’t very widespread. However, since then, members in every single Arah exploration group I have wanted to join have declared that they will be doing this, several of whom have been explaining to the others how to do so (I’ve dropped from all these groups).

Anyway. Is there an ETA on this getting fixed? I would quite like to be able to run this place without needing to recruit a group specifically by advertising that we -don’t- want to exploit and risk bans.

The developers are already aware of this and should be implementing a solution to the problem soon.

Until then, this will continue to get exploited.

yeah i did 2-3 runs and then quited the group coz i dont rly liked the way do it
they pick warden w/e path run to bosses the one with the hammer and the archer
they jump at high place which somehow but not always bugs the hammer one and he can’t kill em then we go trought some short cut via jumping to dont rly know what boss and theres another bugg on small rock or something on the ground where the boss can’t hit us which makes 2 chests done in like 5 min.
Oh and forgot to say that before first 2 bosses if needed they used aoe stealth to lose agro and avoid killing trash mobs which ofc is waste of time…

As much as I think this is an exploit, I can see how people would not be concerned with it. I mean, with all the jumping puzzles and stuff in the game, the path that goes over the hill almost seems purposely made. I think people just chalk this up to how it is supposed to be.

So do I get a banhammer to the face if I farm my whole gear set this way from Arah? To be honest, I am slightly annoyed seeing everyone advertising these fast and easy runs on map chat. Its like you´re basically telling everyone you´re exploiting the game is it not? I think this is even more widespread issue than the karma vendor bug. People dont even see this as an exploit.
