If you can farm those solo my hats off to you. A spawn of 8 hits for about 5000 points on the alpha. Then its slow going to get through them.

People are doing 51 bosses in my experience. They're much faster to cut through so the exp/time ratio is way better than trying to tackle 54s, regardless of whether or not you can take down 54s.

Tonaka, you should probably have someone proofread you posts before you aggro on someone for a couple of misspelled words.

No all it takes is them making MA the way they want people to use it.
[/ QUOTE ]
And which people's way would that be?
[/ QUOTE ]
Positron's way. It's his toy and I don't want him to have another hissy fit.
So if he has some way he wants it used (and he does) he should be absolutely clear about that. The only way to be absolutely clear is to actually build it that way.
The devs keep beating around the bush and making everyone jump through hoops. It is boring at best. Cut to the end where you force MA to behave the way that he wants it by coding it in place.

Oh, it's so HARD not to farm! It's not as if there's hundreds of perfectly good missions against challenging enemies that have been available for five years! What's a player to do, it's as if the devs don't want the game to be an effortless grindfest...

Hmmm, I didn't even notice the title, I assumed he was saying Devouring Earth (DE) was the new meow.

What is this that I hear about de being the new meow and that it is even better then the old meows??? Is this gonna be needed sand a big crazy brawl is gonna break out again??
[/ QUOTE ]
And you felt you needed to post this why?
In case you felt this was some kind of exploit, I feel I should mention that pointing out specific exploits on the forums for all to see is as frowned upon by the devs as those that actually do the exploiting.
Petition it in game, but don't bring it here. All it will do is make trouble.
[/ QUOTE ]
Seriously...
What a foolish post this guy has done. It makes him look very very ignorant really.
Oh, and the dev's "are" doing something about those who exploit MA missions, they are p3rma-b4nn1ng accounts as well as stripping accounts of M.A.-Xp1oit bui1t characters. I know someone who had as many as 20 removed and 2 accounts p3rma-b4nnd. I don't think the dev's are too happy or proud to be forced to take these measures though (which I understand), hence why most posts about these r3movals/b4nz have been quickly de1eted to save face and keep the community at ease/happy. Also hence why I'm sorta doing a wee little to obscure those key words above lol, so they don't de1ete this too quickly 
I think it's perfectly ok that the forums know about these, it'll serve as a good warning to those who wish to further exploit MA missions. They will KNOW for sure that there are consequences to doing that.

There's also the fact that when the subjects of disciplinary actions come here to post they never take responsibility for their actions or show the slightest bit of remorse. Instead they spout vitriol and bile while making baseless accusations about nefarious plots against farming and powerleveling community. Threads like that will never serve any useful purpose and should be locked and or deleted.
But it's ok to post selling PL pacts in the market forums but heaven forbid farming? How are freak missions exploits? They don't give boss xp for minions. They ambush, just like dev created missions. Just a bigger ambush that'll tem wipe. Big risk per reward. No exploit.
I think it's just that freaks are *relatively* easier to fight than most high-level mobs.
They should mix them up in the high levels more. I wanna see more of the unique mobs, like Sonic Freaks and Sneaky Freaks.

wait...who said Freak missions are exploits?
Freak bosses hit hard in general, have knockback and stun
Freak Smashers hit hard and can stun
Freak Slashers use a 2-hit attack chain that hurts like hell
Freak Juicers have a sleep and drain your end
Not to mention they all have a self heal and can rez.
Rezzing Freaks= double XP. 
Who honestly cares if people make Freak farms in MA. It's not like you can't get them outside of the MA. There is no "exploitation" involved.

And the MA doesn't give you Day Job rewards, mission complete bonuses, or purples. You may as well just run paper mishes, or even *gasp* story arcs.

Sorry, but asking what the newest exploit is isn't "trying to learn the game". It's "trying to learn how to cheat".

Because some people have run those *gasp* story arcs so many times it feels like farming.
Given a choice between old stale content I've run a thousand times or a new shiny farm with possibly some lame excuse for a story that will get me past the painfull levels, I'll take the new shiny.

I'll solve the OP's question and end this thread right now. Freaks are *NOT* the new Meow.
I'll provide you with a picture.

[/ QUOTE ]
There was no hissy fit. The only people who saw a hissy fit were those that were making farms and exploiting the heck out of them, or those farmers that got caught up in the hysteria before reading Positron's post (if they read it at all). Don't believe me? Go back, read it again, and show me the hissy fit. I've made the challenge dozens of times now, and no one has been able to provide the fabled "hissy fit." You won't be the first.

"Don't make farms in the Architect." This guideline was out there before the Architect even launched. How much clearer do they need to be?

[/ QUOTE ]
What hoops? Don't farm in the Architect? The only thing you are being asked to do is to practice some self control. This would be the opposite of hoop jumping. If you are "jumping through hoops," it seems to me that you are doing so because you are trying to find some way around the "don't make farms" edict. I say, "keep jumping." The sooner you find those ways, the sooner the Devs will be able to datamine how you did it, and the sooner those ways will be closed. All of your hard work will make for a better Architect for everyone who respects the Devs enough to use it the way they intended.
Has it occurred to you that in order to get the "MA to behave the way he wants it," there will always be the possibility of some farming? There are valid reasons to have a mission of all one critter type (Fortunata mission, Paragon Protector mission). Eventually, all the idiots who can't take a hint and persist in making farms will find that they can't publish missions any more.
New story arcs coming soon (ARC IDs will be aded when I finish the arc):
So, you want to join the Hellions? (level 1-14 Villainous arc)
Sparks & Steel (level 5-20 Heroic arc)
and
So you want to join the Skulls? (level 1-14 Villainous arc)
When will the witch hunting end? Soon any mission that has an outdoor map will be called a farm/exploit.

I don't envy their position. They can either allow MA to be abused horrendously or bring down the wrath of heaven on its misuse, progressively alienating more and more players with each exploitative loophole they close. I suppose I'd go with "stop the abuse and suffer the consequences" myself, and I think the devs will do the same, but that combined with all the other angst and threats to the game out there means the servers may be pretty quiet places a year from now.
[/ QUOTE ]
wait a min. freaks are an exploitable loophole? A mixed mob of m/l/b's? with fly and stun and sleeps and rezzes? They arent customized, they are standard mobs in standard proportions. How in the hell is this an exploit?
