We have been banning allot of people lately using some of the exploits which we have not patched yet. This post is just to take a moment to warn the general community about it.
As usual, there are still exploits which allow people to get around the game mechanics and get things like Adena, Items and etc without the appropriate effort. These players, known as hackers, think they can outwit the Game Masters by using newly created accounts, alts and etc and then moving the exploited items/adena off to other characters. Sorry guys, you don't get away with that.
We have been banning, for many weeks now, any accounts associated with any single exploit. We review our logs daily, and then we cross reference every single interaction that character/account has in-game. The exploited items can be dropped, traded... you name it... we track it.
If you are the recipient of such items, expect to be banned as well. Sure your friend may have done the exploiting, but you knew about it and thats all that is needed to earn yourself a perm ban.
If you see someone in town dropping massive amount of adena, items and etc, report it to a GM. Because if you pick it up, you will probably get banned. If someone opens trade with you and wants to give you all kinds of free stuff, don't accept it no matter how tempting it might be... cause you will just get banned.
So spread the word to your friends, clan mates and etc. If someone wants to give you free items, its probably not legit and you should expect to experience some fallout because of your acceptance.
2nd announcement
People are no longer allowed to kill raid bosses with mages only to avoid being attacked.
Offenders of this will be punished. Punishment will be reviewed per case. If you see somebody breaking this rule please report it to an online GM (use /gmlist) or take sufficient screenshots and contact
l2help@isogames.comThe raid boss aggro range is 800. The attacking range of mages is 1000. Therefore a raid boss will not attack if only mages will kill it. Therefore at least 1 alive character (tank?) has to be within the aggro range and be attacking too.
Thanks for your cooperation
