March of the Farmers!

Box_of_Fox · 03-01-2006, 05:49 PM

Just 10 minutes ago I SOEd into Gludio on my seeding alt and saw that I was surrounded by 10-20 of the most hilarious delevelers I have ever seen. This is a replay video, so you won't get to see their names, but they were all the same-- 6-7 letter, all uppercase, random keyboard keys but mostly vowels (AHSBWOV, Q2EEEMNAS, BC3UOU7). The ones that were in this video were mostly male-- just before I logged out I saw about 5-6 more delevelers, all females with "numbers names" log in and begin to delevel.

All naked male dwarves you see in this video are delevelers.

Enjoy

Download this file into your Replay in the Lineage II folder. If you don't have a replay folder yet, its because you haven't made any replays yourself yet. So make a quick one yourself before you start and then drag that file into that folder that appears.

Then get to the Lineage II login screen and instead of logging in press the "replay" button at the bottom right of your screen.

Bah I was going to do something similar with fraps around DEV

It's horrible there, a farmer for every mob just about.

yeah I took these lovely photos after fishing on my dwarf. Ther had always been a handful of them doing this, but Gludio was swarmed with delevelers here.

delevelin'

I still find this trend interesting... wonder how this is all going to end.

blatant develing in the hundreds, raid boss farming, manor stealling.

God I love Lineage 2.

I would definitely support the "Peace Zone Destruction" Event where peace zones are destroyed for the whole week, and players niether drop items or lose exp when killed by another player, nor flag or go red. Delevelers/farmers/bots would go nuts.... OMG an event like that would make me want to reroll on Teon, looool...

SPS · 03-03-2006, 12:15 PM

Would be nice if the Guards would only attack back if the attacker was doing a decent amout of damage, and make it so if you die to a guard you can drop any item, even your weapon with a fairly high chance. That would screw bots over because they have to wear a weapon of decent p atk and then lose it when they die, and it would help noobs out cos if they decide for what ever reason to attack a guard, it wont hurt em back cos they dont hit enough damage. Or make it so guards wont drop bots at all

Obviously using 3rd party software to de-lvl, and i can bet nothing is done. Dont reply to me cos mistryl will come along and lock such a nice thread.

Box_of_Fox · 03-05-2006, 08:12 AM

SPS that's a great idea-- guards have to be dealt at least a certain amount of damage before they start attacking people (and then equipped drops are possible).

ChuckHoboDUH · 03-05-2006, 01:12 PM

spent a hour today killing the gludio guards

was funny

Box_of_Fox · 03-05-2006, 04:44 PM

Yeah I've been getting higher levels to kill gaurds for me in gludio. Confuses our "auto-mated friends" quite a bit.

In the first screenshot, five (maybe more) folks are almost on top of each other. In Giran, I have trouble moving around because I cannot 'co-locate' with another player's image (except at the spawn point.) Would this not be proof of some alternate program in use?

Caleria · 03-06-2006, 09:56 PM

Nope... seen it happen while multiboxing.

It's no proof, but a good indicator.
