Vicious Hammer glitch/exploit?

Apparently, someone on SW discovered a glitch with server transfers resetting the amount of times VH can be used, as these pics show:

So, if this is actually true and is not a clever fabrication by the person who discovered this, oh brother...

lol. I'll wait till I see a +10 scrolled item before I"ll believe it, just cause you can hammer it doesnt mean you can scroll it.

Humm. This can turn into fairly scary horntail pendants. +5 anyone?

I hope that, not only Nexon fixes this glitch, but also bans the people who decide to go out and do it.

Seriously. I'm tired of all these damn glitches and people exploiting them.

I sure hope that's the case, or else another shitstorm will probably arise.

Hopefully they made it so you can't exceed more slots then the maximum + 2. MAYBE the person can still scroll a +9 gun, but no more since 10 slots can't exist on a 7 slot hammered weapon.

It doesn't matter anyway. Now that this is common knowledge nexon will crack down on it. It's not like server transfers are something you can JUST DO. You have to wait for a server check and I bet by the next one they'll have some method of stopping this. Whether it's blocking all transfers or just those of people who've used vicious hammers or something else all-together. As much good as this would do for Nexon's pockets, I don't think they're going to get into the habit of allowing ridiculous glitches like this to affect the game.

I actually saw this when I was browsing the FM.



I had assumed that it was Clean Slate glitched or something.

wow brb CVS lol

lol he 100%'d it.

I hope hissmallcok gets banned.

As much as we all hope for that, it's unlikely. Other than the bigfoot glitch (which wasnt actually banning people who leeched off bigfoot but rather people who leveled too fast in any manner, be it leeching, training for hours a day, etc.), no other glitch has ever really been banned/fixed/items rolled back. Did they rollback those Clean slated items? Did they take away those untradeable noses with syrups on them? Did they roll back those 52/52/52/52 HT pendants?

They've NEVER done anything about the faults in their game so I dont see why they'd start doing it now, as much as I wish they would =X

On another note, perhaps these vicious hammers is Nexon's way of "compensating"/giving those who didnt glitch white slate a chance to achieve similar equips, albeit asking the said players to cough over nx, but still...

While we're at it, we can wait for nexon to ban/change his IGN which can be interpreted in a not so appropriate way!

In other news, waiting for Eos to report a huge spike in server transfers for August.

Ze problem is Nexon is unable to simply roll back selected items, because rolling back an entire server to fix the problem is obviously a terrible idea. Why oh why can't you just target the item Nexon? Of course at the rate they are going, I am getting tempted to Hammer my Horntail Pendant just for the INT.

Also, is there any other way to interpret such a ecchi name?

Well the first screen shows his % at a higher percentage than the 3rd Screen o_O.

1st Screen = 12.73% and 3rd Screen = 12.29%

So he could have just placed the screens in a different order, and he could have failed the 2 Hammered slots, so the gun would still be (+8) with 2 hammer slots used.

It's in a store in-game at the current moment.

Edit: I mean, I doubt this is an edited screenshot.

Who smells +Over 9000 HT Pendents?

If this got exploited on MSEA's 9 slot weapons... 13 slots, anyone?

YAY for not having server transfer (:

More proof that VH was a hastily added feature in response to meso generator, since the coding behind the VH was so sloppy/lacking. -_-
