    Lets look at the past for a moment because its fun

    Do you guys remember those crazy hacks that used to be around?

    not like pos hacks and bots and stuff, i'm talking the big shit..

    the ones where you could change jobs anywhere.

    i swear one time in the dunes exping my blm, i was in a party with this rdm taru jp. i died, he raised me... but he never left, and it looked to me as if all his gear was taken off at the same time. I found out later on through forums (i think it was here), that there was a known hacktool being used to change jobs anywhere. i was like shit, why didn't they send me that.

    anyway, wasn't that all fun :D?

    This is by far one of the more advanced posts I have read today.

    Item duping with D-box reminds me of when there was gear being sold in Tav that NPCed for more then it sold for.

    I remember hearing about a flying hack a long time ago ;o Like your character was actually flying and the GM's were like "LOL THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE" until they saw it or something.

    It worked the same way as it has in all MMO's, you dualbox and cancel a delivery at the same time as you accept the delivery. Spam it enough and eventually you end up with 2 stuffs.

    by playing with latency somehow, you could convince the game to give you the same item multiple times i think. there was one with the AH and 1 with the dbox iirc, but i'm not sure. it was patched long, long before i got to the game though, so i'm not reliable information on it. there were other interesting hacks including one (i think it was after i started playing but it was patched FAST) where you could force an HQ result when synthing. apparently it left more tracks than a construction worker on white carpet and some people found themselves swiftly on the wrong end of a banstick. there are other ones such as poshacking about and other impossible movements, botting (though that's hardly "hacking" now is it?), detection of NMs with bearing w/o the time/hassle of widescanning, moving while resting, and i'm sure a slew of others i'm missing. SE's been fairly aggressive towards duping and other aspects of the game that affect the economy, but things such as botting, poshacking, etc often slide under the radar with the exception of craftbots and fishbots which have been cracked down due to their afforementioned relationship to the economy. as i've never been into the cheating scene, i'm not too up on what all there is out there, but this is what i seem to remember combating with.

    Duping always reminds me of Diablo you'd be playing and see some dude just walk into town and drop like 12 of the best armor in the game. Godly plate of the whale anyone?

    Actually godly would give the armor an enhanced defense effect. "Jeweler's" is what would make the armor good, because it gives it 4 sockets, in addition to the large amount of life granted from the "of the whale" suffix. Usually socketed with 4x 40enhanced damage / 15increased attack speed jewels. But yeah, those are pretty valuable (even moreso if it's has a PERFECT "of the whale" suffix, giving +100 life.)

    Wow, I was (and still am) such a D2 nerd. Ahaha.

    Edit: Just realized you said diablo, so you could be talking about the first one. I'm not familiar with that game, so possibly the armor you stated IS really good and you did list the right prefix. (Basically saying this so I don't make myself look completely retarded if you did mean the first diablo.)

    Can you still steal from a gob, drag him from his spawn radius, hide, and steal again from the same gob after respawn? I remember panicking about THE END OF GOLD INGOTS after they implemented the MPK patch, but I don't know if they ever fixed the replenishing coins on despawn-respawn mobs.

    All those gold coins that flooded the AH after that allowed me to finish my last leg of goldsmithing to 48 so I could get my shades

    Na, he had to do it when there was a PT killing them.
    He would just run in soon as it poped, steal hide and wait for the next
    the big part was if he failed, he could just go for it again in 20sec
    The party's always camped way far off from the pop area so no one ever thought anything

    Hey remember that hack where you skip servers with a few day old askar korazin and a novia to hang out with a chick on another server? I think it came bundled with the hack that takes off with a bunch of a friend's gil and lushangs... Only downside to that program is when that friend comes back to the game they have to hunt you down to get the novia and nothing else because the rest of it is all gone. Thats an awesome hack.
