Familiar Hack

Oh, so that explains all the recent level 200s:



Not saying they're all hackers. Nowadays it's pretty easy to reach that level too.

But yeah. With glitched LHC and hackers around it's obviously much easier.

Just saying.

That's just rude. That was a guild level up and it was planned out way in advance. We all used the level up potion from the hot time event. Posting my 200 in a hacker thread...... took me 6 years, d[i]ck.

I don't see it getting patched this week.. ._. nexons offices are empty right?

Nah. They did an unscheduled maintenance on Mabinogi to fix the chat servers so there's hope. At least for things that don't require them to understand the game(s). http://mabinogi.nexon.net/News/View.aspx...ntNo=00DSG

Monster park, PQs and maybe ToT.

Is there anywhere I could train alone at level 122? I couldn't possibly go to ToT at this time, I don't think I would even be able to hit the enemies.

There is one thing that is untradeable but could be used as a market gimmick/scamming concept: the monster book card.

Think about it. WHO in their right mind could resist the temptation to not get the bigger, harder to obtain cards from hackers? 'Specially with the two most unobtainable cards in existence; who in gMS has beaten Empress or Pink Bean and legitimately obtained the card?

For card collectors, they would shell out their entire life savings for that; a fact that hackers aiming to scam can take advantage of.

I can see it now: "S>Hacked PB/Cygnus Card Runs, no noobs, 2.1bil mesos or 50k NX, trade first"

God I'm gonna feel miserable if the hackers take that idea and run with it.

The only thing you get out of pb card is having your book go from +7 all to +8 all and there are tons of legit pb runs well nvm nothing is 100% legit cuz everything has touched hackers hands somehow

The other thing you get out of it is an ego boost that may or may not be significant to you.

I digress, however. In the words of Grimgor Ironhide:

"Kill em. KILL THEM ALL!"

How the hell would he know that? It just happened to take place at the same time as a major outbreak of illegit scum leveling at LHC. Blame them for tarnishing your guild event, not someone who just got the wrong picture.

Gather ticket pieces in leafre and do monster park. You might not be able to finish the whole thing solo, but it is still good exp.

People get an ego boost about doing something anyone can do in a matter of a day or two with no effort? the hack is public any1 and their mom could use it and they do.

Gig Vikings in Ludi are good. I trained there on my BaM, Mech, and Mercedes.

guess he should've known something that he wouldn't have known unless he was in your guild/friends!

That's why you're not supposed to post things to accuse people of hacking on this forum.

If you guys actually bothered to read closely instead of jumping to arms you'd realize he said 'Not saying all of them are hackers'.

Its not even a edited post. But in the end, what you guys did was very clever. it just sucks it happened during the outbreak of a hack undermining your achievements.

There was no known outbreak of this last Friday (I actually trained in BW5 Fri/Sat and saw nothing like this). I don't know what to say to the point of "Combattente doesn't know me".

After being in Bera and sleepywood for 6 years and here for 2.5...

A planned out 6 man level up on Friday, in which this outbreak has not happened yet. I know what he said, but he should still change his post and remove the pictures.

Blame Nexon for the massive amount of 200's. There were plenty before this new hack outbreak. Re-releasing 24 hour 2x cards, 4 hour, daily 2x cards, on top of all the 1.3x, 1.5x boosters, exp pendants, HS, mercedes buff, welcome back rings....... It's just ridiculous how fast people can level, even if training normally in a spawn-hacked map.

I don't know what to say to the point of "Combattente doesn't know me".

Is he in your guild? Is he on your buddy list? Did you publicly announce via massive advertising campaign on every website known to man that your guild was planning to do this? Unless you've answered yes to at least two of those the fact he had no way of knowing that's what you were doing still stands and you need to unwedge the stick from your posterior and just get the hell over it.

It was a pictoral example of mass 200 leveling that's prevalent now. Yours was legit, big whoop. Congrats. The people who know you don't give a damn that it happened to be posted in an negative thread about something else. Move on.

Grats Zen lol.
And honestly, I cant see how anyone from bera can accuse him of hacking.. I started in bera and he is one of the old school players. Was kinda well known at some point too if i recall.

Oh, a glimmer of hope for it to be fixed before this weekends 2x is ruined lol. Yet i don't see it.
I always find it odd how their biggest game (biggest money magnet at least) gets the least attention lol.

May as well surrender that hope, I'm told they brought Mabi up early and didn't bother fixing their chat system. Equal Craptasticity for all!

Lol, My hopes was never high. I stopped raising them after they got shot down so many times

I prefer "hope is the denial of reality"

Woah, calm down bud. I never said "this is an example of a whole bunch of hackers levelling to 200". It'd have been against the rules, too, and that never was my intention either way. Those two screenshots were just being, as Eos perfectly explained in his post, an example of mass levelling to 200 in these times in which, sadly, getting to 200 is not much of an accomplishment anymore (can't say it isn't for you since you have been playing for so long and we do know how long it took to level up back then).

I actually didn't spot your name there when posting the screenshot and never knew of the guild level up thing. I apologize for that. But I've never called ANY of you hackers, nor did my post intend to do that, so I don't find a reason to remove the screenshot from my post.

Exactly.

There was no known outbreak of this last Friday (I actually trained in BW5 Fri/Sat and saw nothing like this).

I'm just telling you this: someone I know levelled up from 115 to 150+ in 2 hours or so during the 2x EXP event, thanks to the major EXP buffs and glitched LHC maps. So yeah, I think there was an "outbreak" of mass illegit levelling afterall.

In any case, next time avoid insulting someone who, in fact, has done nothing wrong. Thank you.

One among them being the fact that they didn't continue the Masteria story and treated it like it didn't exist at all. However, I feel that Masteria's being worked on, but they have three reasons why they can't interrupt this Black Wings patch series to do Masteria at the moment.

1)Hardcore Masteria lore nuts. I do believe (or else I am mistaken) that Isaac is one of these. They obviously are going to need to retcon the lore with all these new things coming out. However, they're struggling with how to do so and NOT piss off those who loved the story that Prose was making.
2)If Maple kicks the bucket before either one is done, they go down as a failure in netgaming history. As Nexon doesn't want that, they've pooled all their available resources into finishing the Black Wings saga. That way, if they're still alive when the Black Mage is dead, they can begin to reallocate their powers towards remaking Masteria.
3)We're not in the same world we were pre-Big Bang. If you think about it, Big Bang is central to the Black Wings saga plot. Removing Big Bang means that you have to remove everything that occurred canonically AFTER that (in other words, a rewind because of nostalgia brats). Thus, most of what's in Masteria is outdated, and they can't continue Masteria's lore now in present form because it deals with outdated concepts.

Agree on everything, but on the fact that Masteria's being worked on. Several things point at an almost complete death of Masteria, one of them being issues such as Twisted Jesters' wrong HP:EXP ratio (this was a post-BB issue) which still haven't been fixed after more than a year.

The other is Crimsonwood Keep being almost totally forgotten, eventhough they keep saying it'll come back. If it ever does, it will probably be VERY late, or they'll just all of a sudden stop writing it in the "Known Issues" part of patch notes and act as if it never existed. Afterall, we do know they're capable of that, and really, I see no reason at all to be optimistic about Masteria anymore. We've been waiting for years for new content. I always said it was probably dead, and time just proved me right, in some ways. Sure, I can't know it as a fact, but it's easy for anyone to guess it is.

It's sad, as it was one of the best areas of the whole game. Now, with their advanced techniques of making storylines and quests, and with the NPC-fighting system, they could actually make it even more of a masterpiece than it already is. The storyline Prose has built also leaves space to many, countless ways for them to decide a continuation to that. It's just that, as you said, they're probably more focused on releasing the main pieces of content directly from KMS as fast as possible, as that's a stable source of money for them (ever thought about how much more money a new job can make them rather than a simple new area? that's also why they keep releasing so many), while, if they had to experiment by releasing the first expansion of Masteria without Prose and Joe, nobody knows how it'd go and if it'd be a success or not. So they prefer the first one for now, maybe also because of the lack of the right staff to do the latter.

Yeah, in the future it is not to exclude that they might release more Masteria, but it is probably bound to happen when they've finished releasing stuff about the main storyline and the last hero. Not gonna happen soon, and, right now, it's probably dead. Nobody says they won't revive it.

This hack has gotten out of hand.

No one can properly train anymore and I refuse to join one of the hacking parties just to watch monsters die for hours.

Shame LHC does not have Mini Dungeons.
