Narandi loots "exploited"?

The item in question is supposed to give you multiple rewards, it's part of the quest design.

Not sure why people in this thread are strongly against cheap twink gear though. RMT much fellas?

What are you talking about? So exploiting is okay if it makes items cheaper? That isn't the discussion.

Yes, item in question is supposed to give you multiple rewards... 1 of each of them. You are not supposed to get 10 of each reward. Maybe you didn't really read or understand what is going on here.

Us telling you it's an exploit, has nothing to do with any of our personal gain or loss from this. It's just a fact. We aren't trying to bash anyone or get anyone in trouble. We are simply stating a fact that if you're getting 10 of the same item from 10th ring war turn ins... your guild is exploiting it. That's what an exploit is. You're meant to get 1 of each item... and you do something to make sure you get the unintended amount of items. You're intended to get ONE OF EACH ITEM. It's really not that difficult to understand the concept.

You show the item to Dwarf 1. he gives you his 1 reward. Do you think it was intended that you can keep dropping his reward and spamming the turn in to get 10 of that 1 item? You think the devs intentionally did this? REALLY?

And because "its been like that for years" does not make it less of an exploit. It might give you more of a reason to USE it but that doesn't all of a sudden make it not an exploit.

Those of us telling you it's an exploit are actually the sane ones here. It's the people who are somehow magically telling themselves it's NOT an exploit... that seem to not have a strong grasp at reality.

When you stand back... and don't look at what you gain or lose from this... you can clearly see it's an exploit.

But, your thought process seems to be "well it makes twink items cheaper, so of course it's not an exploit."

Or did you mean... it's an exploit but who cares because it's making items cheaper?

Which one is it?

You're being purposefully dumb. The shorn head is no trade. If the rewards were no trade, only the person getting the ring would get any loot. So the items are droppable so you can hand them out. The event is supposed to give you those 5 items (1 of each) assuming you did it right as bonus loot, and its meant to pass it off to other players. The gear is almost raid level gear for that era. No, you're not supposed to sit there and get 50 of each items.

whats funny is half these people complaining were probably the same folks who had no issue with jboots building aggro etc etc. Just stop, your hypocrisy is just amazing.

Sounds like a lot of jealous folks don't know how to properly perform the event for more loot. Since that's the case you should celebrate it as the price will plummet and you can easily get any item for cheap.

This goes back to the same vein with people complaining about sleeper not being woken ASAP on Coirnav/Mangler and beyond "rare" items plummeted in price. Meanwhile on Aradune some guilds sold half their SoD's for 100+ kr, then the buyer resold them for 130kr each.

I'm sure he/she plans on subbing for the next 10 years though...

This has been around since way before Agnarr AFAIK - the real travesty is a guild (its one specific guild and not TEB/RWT) is openly trying to cash in vice gearing their guild.

If the devs want to finally nerf it, have at it - until then the event in its current state will continue to reward players with a number of items in the limited time frame available prior to zone repop.

Maybe DBG has just taken a meh stance on this. Velious has been out so long...why bother changing this. On live they turned on bonus raid loot after a period. They have activated plenty of bonuses on TLPs.

I am more surprised at how DBG has not done more to satisfy the "take my money" crowd and sell more things that have nothing to do with altering the balance of the game.

If you think its an exploit you shouldnt be announcing it here. Send a PM to a dev and ask them if its an exploit or if its ok.

Its cute that people don't think this is an exploit. But don't worry, nobody is talking about half of the currently working exploits that haven't been fixed in years.

Have you seen my magelo? Do you honestly think I would care about getting a crown of narandi?

Guilds and people were banned for exploiting things very similar. Only difference is they actually needed to do the event multiple times. This exploit just skips that middle part for more loot and no extra work.

It's not exploiting. You literally just admitted it. The item is intended to give you more then one item back. Nothing shady needs to be done, you just turn in a quest item over and over. What next is using Muffins to gain faction over and over now an exploit. Give me a break.

Where is this 1 of each coming from? Oh that's right you just made it up because otherwise your argument is trash.

It's intended to be turned in over and over. If it wasn't intended the mobs would
1) Despawn like Marl used too
2) You would be given X amount like the with Trak Teeth.

The devs already knew how to limit how many times you could turn something in.

Face it the design is intentional.

Not sure if you're being deliberately disingenuous, if so haha good one! But if you actually believe this was intended... wow lol.

Fact the item in question was designed to be turned in multiple times
Fact the mobs you turn the item in to don't despawn on turn in
Fact turning in quest items isn't an exploit

You are standing outside the honor system shack trying to convince everyone that passes by the fisherman never intended to get paid.

We all see you making a fool of yourself.

Not a single person crying in this thread has explained how turning in a quest item for a reward is an exploit.

Nor have they mentioned that the lore tab on the 10th ring specifically tells you how to turn it in multiple times for another reward.

Its extremely silly to think they put in a lore tab with text explaining how to turn something in multiple times for a rewardthat is lore and yet in quest to obtain that item people claim its an exploit to do the same.

Its literally the same action, only the one they are whining about has a limited time window to accomplish it in and the reward isnt no trade, thus designed to be shared with other characters intentionally.

Ill say it one final time, calling this an exploit shows a very ignorant person underneath. It certainly is taking advantage of a limited time to obtain certain items to the fullest, but definitely not any exploit being pulled off.

The quote feature of the boards is intended to reply to another person, not quote yourself and talk to yourself out loud.

MasterMagnus is exploiting the message board!

Id ask if people see how incredibly stupid this is now, but I dont expect those crying can actually follow this, its going to be beyond their comprehension

People still trying to sell this junk for 2 kronos +.

WTB Crown of Narindi 2cp

I'm seeing here https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=6892 a lore tab that reads:

That tells you how to get a scroll from presenting the ring.

So you're saying because you can get multiple scrolls from presenting a ring you earned, that means it's ok to drop multiple crowns on the ground before you ever get the ring?

Am I missing something here?

*EDIT*
Because not one person here has presented anything to make me think A SINGLE HEAD CAN REWARD YOU WITH MULTIPLE CROWNS.

You killed one boss.
You got one head.
That head wears one crown.

You created this fake honor system and imposed silly rules on yourself.

One of the items is even named after the first person to finish the quest and GMs gave out multiples of the item to players in the raid.

You killed one boss.
You got one head.
That head wears one crown.

Try to keep up.
