Here are the facts and what we done since this "bug" was exploited.
It was reported that the new rares were BP'able, and as soon as it was known a softpatch was made to prevent these BP's from being copied and a further softpatch to prevent usage of the items. After investigation we have applied another softpatch to allow the items to be used again.
As the issue was quickly caught, the impact to the economy is low.
During the investigation we have discovered:-
- The number of real rare items is quite low - much lower than most people would have expected.
- Some players have made constructed version of the new rares - we have checked these items and removed them where necessary.
- Some players have BP copies of the new rares - again these have been removed.
The NST will continue to monitor the issue and if necessary apply any bans to players who exploit this bug. If you have any more information on this exploit please report it in-game using the ? GM help tool in the top right of your screen or send an email to helpdesk@neocron-game.com The forums is not the place for reporting or discussing exploits.
Finally we would thank the players who did report this exploit.
