Describe the problem. Be as specific as possible!:
Yes, the thread is finally, officially here. Cyanne hit on it partially with her other thread, but this one is simply, bluntly stating the already well-known and clearly well-exploited fact: if you quit Pyramid PQ when you have activated the 400% damage buff, you retain the buff for a period of time (I've heard 30 minutes, 40 minutes, and 60 minutes for those with max Alchemist) anywhere in the Maple World, allowing people like a 6-man group in Khaini yesterday to down HT in only 17 minutes.
Considering this buff grants players with, essentially, private server-like power, and is only somewhat contained/restricted with a 200,000 damage cap, it's an issue that any cognizant, responsible company should deal with immediately.
Of course, with their database hacked recently and the user information for every player in Global MS leaked, Nexon does not fall into this category.
