I feel so cheated for not being in ON the cheat

Mr_OtterMr_Otter Posts: 1,614 ★★★
So… some people are currently able to farm ridiculous amounts of rewards from heroic explorations over and over but all I'm getting is mediums

Why? I could literally have farmed 7 full 5*, 18-20 full 4*, and enough T4b to not worry for a LOOOOONG time (and enough T1a to never have to get it again)

BUT I CANT because despite the resources to farm it like others my payout is different and LITERALLY punishes me for exploring medium

    Please explain

    With my amount of units (saving for a Carb core) if I were able to exploit this glitch like others and get the Heroic rewards please see the above amounts that I'd be able to farm as rewards

    However as I most recently finished medium event I was only receiving medium rewards, the 3*, no 5* shards, much few 4* shards and T4b fragments

    For seeking more rewards through notmal gameplay I'm actually put at the disadvantage when it comes to this glitch

    What am I missing? Go to sleep and wake up and all hell appears to have gone down.

    Are people getting full exploration rewards just from running 1 path in master?

    I did one path in heroic but got nothing. Did it have to be a path I had not already run?

    The rewards will be revoked, stuff like this has happened before and the exploited rewards have been taken away

    They claim they are taken away. Unless proven I don't buy it. I remember there being an exploit in aq where if you left regen up on uc you could fight him down then die and then let him heal and fight him down again and score infinite points. I don't believe the rewards from those aq were ever addressed. Although they would pale in comparison to this

    Me too... been plying for almost 3 years and the only luck I have ever had in this game is pulling 5* icemen from the featured crystals other than that I feel over worked and under appreciated

    This was an issue in the past.
    Everything will be taken away from the cheaters. So no point in to spending energy

    They never took away the rewards that was exploited in the past, they said kudos to those who exploited this bug. But hats off to you and it was our fault for not testing the content first and getting rid of the bugs. So I'm sure it will be the same response they will get from them. It happened in 2015...

    But I think to get something back from them should be something like a generic 5 star awakening gem or something like that

    Event quest named "Blood and Venom", introducing Guillotine and Venom.
    It happened, people took advantage and Kabam took everything away from their accounts

    I think calling it a cheat is stretching it. It is a loophole. The players that have taken advantage did not have to use mods, account share or anything else. Kabam is giving the rewards. I guess you would stop and alert Kabam after you received these rewards after one path.

    Don't forget about the people who got 200,000 rift shards instead of 2,000... the people that opened them all had their accounts reset to what it was before they received the shards.

    That's not entirely correct. Firstly, they received 10k master rift crystals instead of 10k master rift shards and secondly, their accounts were not reset. They only took away the crystals shards and champs obtained through them. They didn't take away other items received from them (like awakening gems)
    In both these cases, very few people were able to exploit the situation and thus they were able to pinpoint those accounts and take away the rewards. In cases where several accounts were affected—like when people got the mail with 3* and 4* crystal from act 2 and 3 again, or when several people didn't get AQ rank rewards—they chose to do nothing (in case of Act 2 and 3 rewards) or they issued out the rewards again to everyone

    Those saying they will get the rewards taken away don't remember what happened last time. They kept ALL of their 4* shards. Only 5* were taken back

    In gaming terms, for years, this is referred to as an "exploit." It is still completely considered cheating. I found out about the exploit and pointedly did not run anymore Master exploration for the day. I may have lost out by not using my energy, but I didn't cheat.

    This is a game where effort (and money, but I'm not a spender since 12.0) yields rewards, which gives you the incentive to keep playing. Cheating your way to victory (and an exploit is, by definition, a cheat) undermines the game and undermines your own enjoyment.

    I mean, have you ever activated God Mode in a video game and NOT gotten bored after the first 5 minutes?

    I this the first game I have played since Madden in high school (17 years ago). Never knew anything about God Mode in any game. I didn't get the opportunity to take advantage of this "exploit." However, I don't call those who do cheaters.

    Save the units for pots/revives when AQ crashes again every 15 mins.

    Oh cry me a river. Just get over it. Either they'll keep rewards or they won't; stop being childish and worry about yourself.

    They won't. Maybe if it was really quick and only a handful found it, but it's gone on way too long at this point and people are pulling extra 5* champs and T2a from it. Will get taken away.

    @CoatHang3r Oh my goodness. I don't know anyone that wouldn't run a quest for extra full basics and 5*s because it's "cheating." Besides which, taking advantage of a glitch is gaming, not cheating.
