Malchor Leap's exploit (union waypoint)
The more serious issue, in my opinion, is these people’s treatment of others that come to the area to legitly try to do the nearby event.
These people are ridiculed, name called, and harrassed because others are afraid that their ‘farm’ is going to be shut down for a while by someone completing the event.
This event scales horribly because of these farmers also, so trying to complete the event is near impossible.
this has been posted numerous times already.

and so on. If this is a serious matter this shouldve been fixed already.

– This is not true, 2 or 3 players can destroy the walls no matter, if you really want to end it, you can.
Ok yeah this has been posted a few time allready.
Why there are no official statement on this?? They banned player who bought the ‘21’ karma sword on release but for this exploit, they did nothing at all.
Please i dont want the t5 mats to be worthless , it shouldn’t be.
Wooot!!!! Thanks for the hotfix arenanet .
Risen Wraith doesnt drop anything anymore at this spot.
thanks again
Routine maintainence my derrier… (and no I didn’t farm this event)..
Yet again, the underhandedness with which they slide things into/out of the game is uncovered.

I’ve stated this is several other threads now, but the maintenance update and the event change are totally unrelated, they just happened on the same day.
thing about this is, peopel fuss at each other for ruinging a farm when god moeny is hard to come by THAT fast, if we had a way to fight for money instead of running around hitting mobs that stand still unless you aggro them…instead of hoarding mats that hardly drop because of the FAIL RNG…and leveling up crafting disciplines when hardly anyone buys the kitten things because of ascended gear….this is what it comes down to…its not an exploit it was merely too easy to make money…which did NOT hurt the economy…simply dont buy from TP and farm/make ur mats/money some other way. IMO not allowing people to farm like they used to in GW1 ruined the game, it stretches you to do different things then Diminishing returns kicks in, which it shouldnt for everyone, but only dungeons or such, hell not even in dungeons, remove the DNG anyway. a bot is always going to be in a game regardless of what you do just as there are fleas on a dog there will be exploiters in games just to show off. Guild Wars 2 was about playing your way and feeling good about it, not being kept on a antimakemoney/have fun leash on our said dog.
People will always complain, for one reason or another. I honestly am tired of the nerfing of every event in orr. What is the point of orr if there is no farming? Orr is now just going to become an annoying place to go to and will drive people away from it.
Orr is already an annoying place to go where every single waypoint is always contested, but no one wants to run through failing events with no people.
Mats T5 down from SC not Malchor.
Malchor just give more Pile and bone.
It’s event what players can finish or delay it by their action.
Its not an exploit, I love the way people shout about this, im sure the OP has never done an 8 min CoF run huh,
The event was completed 3 times yesterday on my server so wheres the exploit, problem now is Anet will nerf this to within an inch of its life, my guess is they will do what they did with the beach nerf in cursed shore, where enemies now DROP NO loot at all, in which case id doubt well see the temple uncontested again.
Yeah, the mobs now drop no loot. Such a shame. Give Anet 3 more months and there won’t be any loot in any Orr maps at all.

thing about this is, ….. -shortened-— Guild Wars 2 was about playing your way and feeling good about it, not being kept on a anti-makemoney/have fun leash…
Anet has reason to make sure we never make money. So we can buy their gems and convert. (which wont happen. they’ll just lose their playerbase.)
Complete crud if you ask me.

ANet, fix your bugs, and stop nerfing events that behave exactly the way you designed them to. 80% of the events in Orr now drop Zero Loot because you guys are nerf-happy. How about implementing a timer for these types of events. After say, 30 minutes or so, then have the “no loot” kick in. This way, the events are still worth doing, but worth actually doing. As it stands now, they are not worth even thinking about.
And Nobody is paying 2 silver to waypoint to an event that will yeald them no loot.
Come on now, stop being idiotic and making your player-base pay for things you didn’t have the foresight to assume would happen when you designed the event this way.

Not an exploit? If you really werent exploiting, you would destroy all 6 walls and the event would last about 2 minutes.
You should really get more informations on what an exploit is :
“An exploit, in video games, is the use of a bug or glitches, rates, hit boxes, or speed, etc. by a player to their advantage in a manner not intended by the game’s designers.1 It is often colloquially abbreviated sploit. Exploits have never been classified as a form of cheating; however, the precise determination of what is or is not considered an exploit can be controversial. This debate stems from a number of factors but typically involves the argument that the issues are part of the game and require no changes or external programs to take advantage of them.2”
If they fixed it then it was an exploit.
So I take it you’ve made threads crying about the CoF 8 min runs, or the 46 seconds it takes to kill Lupi in Arah too then, or the guys in the WvW jumping puzzle killing each other over and over for drops, the list goes on and on……..Anet are making it harder and harder to get drops/ loot in this game because the RnG crap that is in use, makes it near impossible to get anything decent, Sunsouth cove 360% MF no drops ring a bell.
Like I stated, the event was completed 3 times on my server yesterday, so instead of coming on here crying because you cant farm it, why not just go and destroy the walls yourself,
Will look forward to your post next week when most of Orr drops no loot at all when after the anet nerf train runs threw it, have fun farming queensdale.

LOL you guys suck. The reason that the t5 price fall down is because of the new 200% mf buff that happens in Southsun. I notice this occurance since last 2 weeks during the weekend as at that time, lotsa people come online to get the awesome buff and then farm karka/skelk to the max. Notice that t6 material that drops from karka/skelk also drops significantly (scale, blood, claw, fang)
Not because of lyssa. Period. >_>
So, because this issue has been present since release, can someone just PM me what the new farming spot is? I cba to read 2-4 pages on 4 different threads.
Thanks.

I’m kinda glad this was nerfed. I really want there to be cool farms, but not at the expense of exploiting.
