Hey All,

I checked the test server forums and the normal forums but don't see any patch notes? anyone got a linky?

Though usually they say that there are no public patch notes in these cases, sometimes they don't put out the details publicly on the forums. It could also be that they are on their way and you just have to be patient.

They fixed an exploit so no patch notes. If you used that exploit you should be ashamed of yourself and give me all that inf you farmed. You'll feel better.

I supsect there will be patch notes for this one. Although they are usually frustratingly slow to post them.

From the "Server Status" page:

"Patch notes will be available after the downtime."

Really heavy snowfall? Sounds like the texture has gone missing/gotten corrupted. Could be either the patch or your installation. I recommend running the "verify files" function in the updater.

Same here on the Blue side...relogged and the updater was "fixing" something...then all was good.

Actually we still don't know what he was talking about. The bug that was fixed was something else.

No, what he's talking about was indeed fixed. This patch changed at least one other thing as well. One villain only power lacked an AoE cap that now has one.

This valuable time that would have normally been devoted to getting I17 and GR our to you for free and for minimal cost, respectively, was devoted to fixing a stupid loophole, and is proudly brought to you largely on the behalf of lame sploiters and noobs. Thanks gang, hope you enjoy!


There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.

As i recall the one widow AoE was fixed a while ago, so which one was it?
It makes sense to set all AoE's to just below the aggro cap as a maximum, but i still didn't complain when the cap was missing.

Did the Soldier version already have the cap? Only took Mako's pool on my soldiers...

Really? The "sploiters and noobs" caused the development staff to take action to fix bugs that the development staff ONLY is responsible for causing. Where I work that's called fixing what you broke. I can't imagine blaming one of my customers for finding a bug created by one of our developers.

This isn't a shaky foundation, this is a hole in a screen door. I used hyperbole in my post, yes...but to suggest that there is some quantity of innocence intervening on behalf of those who used the exploits because the Devs deserved it for making, in your words, something broken is just... Wow.

Please point out, either explicitly or whatever inferered from, where I suggested "some quantity of innocence...". Anything, please, because you swung and whiffed big-time at what you think I said.

What YOU said is "devs had to fix bug because of spoilters"

I said "devs had to fix bug because they created a bug".

Any inferences you make beyond that are your own.

I'm curious now. How did this exploit work?

mm pets didn't get exemped if you spawned them before entering the mission. this made it really easy for them to kill things that your exemped lvl 1 couldn't kill.

Two threads in the Bugs forums address this issue.

Including level 50 giant monsters, which gave an absolutely ridiculous amount of XP. Over one bar of XP per monster at level 49. You could go from level 1 to 50 in about an hour.
