Regarding the item customization exploits

[jonathanmurphy3]

/sigh

You DO realise it's merely one axe that you can dual wield, right?
* A level 8 axe with **** stats
* 2H >>> dual-wield

You need to get out of your house more, have a glass of vino tinto and chill.

I can hardly see the difference of loosing 2 maybe 3 persons doing this. I can as opposite see the advantages of the vast ammount of people actually taking rules seriously. If its a game, cheating is cheating. Games are meant to be played by all players with the same rules, then something, either luck or skill or whatever, decides who wins. U cant encourage a part of the community to actually search for "minor" exploits, cause they will, and eventually find that 3 minor ones are a mayor one.

Obviously mad.
1: having level 8 2hander and shield equipped didn't make me win or not win anything.

2: I didn't go looking for anything. As explained in Bloodfists screenshot, my character was lost from the sc bug. When I got him back his equips were like that.

blah blah blah i cheated, blah blah blah lynch mob. get good.

I think this thread has gone from discussing whether or not something is an exploit to e-shouting at each other and ad hominem.
But that's just me.

I echo Labotimy's thoughts @ Oto: get good, m9

I dont see why this is such a problem. Im not jonathanmurphy's biggest fan but this gives no power gain at all, if anything it makes less sense to equip 2 1h axes as a chosen. Its for visual only, infact im all for this type of customization, wp dual wielding 1h hammer's, black orcs dual wielding why not ? doesnt give them greater power

Hello. Me using that brutality offhand on my dok, no excuses, i wanted the 5+ str compared to bloody edge. Dmg differnce was 1 more damage on autoattack and 1 dmg from skills. Didnt really think it was that big of a deal since ive seen lots of mara mutations in ah and i thought it was more common tbh. Yes i did exploit this but dont think it was gamebreaking and have no problems switching it back to bloody edge=) peace.

If the devs changed this globally, giving WPs wielding abilities for example, I would be for it. I always wanted my WP on live to dual wield 1h hammers because of how bad-ass it looked. I'm sure jm3 only want to look cool with his axes but the current structure of the game doesn't allow Chosens or Black Orcs to dual wield unless a bug occurred.

Agreed. Unfortunate since there can be a good constructive discussion about this. Everyone is just getting their feelings hurt or getting too emotional with this post, surprising that I did myself as well.

Clearly you're more upset then Ototo.
