Hello there, sorry for posting this a few days late but I was very busy.
I fell upon a strange exploit during the stronghold beta test. It made my dropped supply into an object I could pick and hold, use on the door I wanted, drop and pick up again and repeat. It wouldn’t let me summon archers or doorbreakers unless i dropped it and picked it up again.
This supply came from my char and was dropped when I was killed. I was able to pick it up at respawn. Although it didn’t allow us to beat the match (the other team was at lord already). I spawned so many doorbreakers and archers that their final gate went down in seconds without anyone escorting the NPCs.
I hope someone looks into this, I was unable to replicate it because it was my final match I could play, so someone should see if it is something that happens every time dropped supply is picked up, etc.
I tried to see how many NPCs I could summon, apparently the number was infinite.
In a previous game, I noted the enemy spawning a whole load of archers and door breakers without seemingly going for supply, so perhaps this exploit happened to them as well.
Edit: I know there are not many archers and door breakers present at the time of this picture, but this bug happened right at the end of the game. Took me a moment to understand what was going on and try to use it.

Even though it was on a beta test maybe it would be better to report it through the email exploits@arena.net as reporting exploits through forums isn’t allowed. Also through email you are free to even give more details if needed.
