foreach (difficulty)
{
if (num_of_keys > 1)
num_of_shards -= (num_of_keys - 1)* shards_of_difficulty (difficulty)
}

    нет проблем!

    For each difficulty a player completed, check the number of keys he has and deduct from his shards all extra ones given due to the bug, which equal to number of keys minus 1, multiplied by how much shards are given for that difficulty.
    If they did this right away, it would be easy. Now people also used the shop to get keys, which complicates it. Still, instead of a number of keys they could use a number of runs for each difficulty, which I'm sure they know, as people were banned for doing it too much.

    Somehow I get the sense it is a bit more complicated than this lol.

    Edit: The logic makes sense, I’m talking about the implementation of such a script.

    Also at this point they would need to use the snapshot in time before it went down yesterday to determine the number of illegitimate shards.

    Just set everyone's shards to the maximum allowable amount for that day (3000) and be done with it IMO

    Bro no I have 18000 shards, because ive done the arena and nearly all the objectives. I only gained an extra 900 shards from doing epic 2 times. I would be distraught if I lost 14.1k more shards than I should.

    Where and how can I see my shards i can't find them anywhere?

    You would lose only shards that you got for that second run. You don't get keys for running arena and objectives, so in my "code" you would lose (2 - 1)*900 = 900

    Anyway, it is not that relevant anymore, since keys can be bought through store, which complicates things. Still it could be possible to use souls in some way to make the correct computation. Somehow I think Kabam will go with simpler version:

    if (num_of_runs > 3)
    ban

    You don’t seem to be familiar with the arena or objectives where you can also get shards. I have done nothing wrong and have like 10k I think

    Yeah I probably should've payed attention in AP Computer Science Principles 🥶🥶🥶

    It looks like Muffler works for Kabam. Sure, implement that code. And then watch as you just screw over players who ran the quest after it was re-introduced and correctly obtained multiple keys with only one instance of shards. SMH.

    No, I work for a company that does have QA. I also mentioned few times that it is not relevant anymore, at least not in that simple form. It would work if they did it when limbo was down, though...

    I kept repeating the limbo for shards. But the thing is I got no notification or mail telling me that It should only be allowed once. I think they should just go with a limiter because it would be too long and alot of people probably did the same thing as me. So I'm not saying what I did is ok. It's just that it's not our fault that we got more than we where supposed to. Also Even without getting extra shards I still grinded keys for other paths.
