It was mentioned that the exploit was most likely a bug with charm and memblur. If you charmed something, had it attack somethin else, then feigned death (as a necro) and/or memblurred, the mob would continue to fight the other mob as that would then be the only thing on the charmed mob's hate list. Notice that this has absolutely nothing to do with bards. Notice that this is becoming the norm for Verant. "didn't realize the effect it would have". kthx~

I think the exploit MIGHT be that you can use short duration charm to simply soften up two mobs and then kill both for full xp. Seems to me a poor exploit tho, especially since we pay for a 39th lvl charm with mana and that charm has no enhancements over song of sirens and the only benefit is that, we can continue to do something we've been doing for 12 lvls...

That is ridiculous. I have no idea what exploit they are referring to. But
all this does is make it more likely I'm going to get carpal tunnel
syndrome working aroung this hindrance.
My lawyer will clean up the suit, but it will go something like; "You get
us addicted and then proceed to add enhancements that are progressively
debilitating" :)
Anyone know how to hotkey the F8 command?
