    Funny Glitch

    If you aggro a Balaur High Protector in the Upper Abyss, it will start summoning Explosive Traps on you every 10-20 secs or so, no matter where you go in Reshanta...I used return to get back to Teminon and this happened:

    If you're near guards, they kill the traps before they explode, but if you aren't they will blow up and damage all nearby players and npcs for 1k per trap. I kinda wanna trigger this during a fort siege and see if it will hit asmos lol. Anyway, you'll probably get suspended/banned if you kill anyone with the traps when they figure it out, so I didn't, but it is fun to see people's reactions...

    It's pretty fun to drop them off to lowbie private store alts and watch them splat.

    Isn't this a few months old? I thought it got fixed.

    old trick, been happening since the game came out.

    Can have some decent fun with it, if you fancy ganking anyone on your faction you don't like who happens to afk in reshanta. Prepare for a decent resist rate against well geared 50's though.

    No real disadvantage to them for dying from it though, doesn't increase soul sickness, doesn't cost AP.

    I'd kill AFK'ers in Primum.

    Old Old trick ...

    Some asshat was doing it while we defended Kysis last night. It was a slow night and only a small group of Asmos were trying to pick people off. They had an easy time of it because of the dumbass getting people all softened up for them.

    Really is a shitty thing to do, if it was any other game than Aion, I would expect some GM to put a foot down, but not here.

    You can wipe people killing Menotios with this.

    Thanks for posting the guide: Griefing 101. There's a reason it wasn't explained in detail in October when we discovered it. >.>
