Messege to the "New" players, do you want us veterans to leave because of how we play?

If, by "how we play" you mean "how some players exploit bugs and then post about said bugs on the forums to showcase the damage and directly helps the devs identify what is bugged", then I would support any newcomers who want that playstyle to stop. It was double-dipping on spell effects in a way that probably wasn't intended (i.e., bugged).

For someone who says "Ssg needs to focus on fixing bugs, this is why theyre doomed to fail ", this post seems a bit out of character. Maybe your left hand should talk to your right?

Basically, the epic strike Orchid Blossom (along with a few other abilities) that should only be calculating damage using Melee Power was also using Spell Power (and seemingly caster level) to calculate damage.

The OP posted a thread here showcasing the damage seeming to know full well how the damage was calculated, so of course other people who weren't in the know had to figure out how the damage was done, thus exposing the bug.

The OP is mad that SSG is fixing bugs, it just so happens that in this case the bug was beneficial to the OP.
Ah.... a little out of context, but at the same time related to the uber uber uber powerful veteran players, who in their magnificence create or join groups of casual and novice players, who have some terrible behaviors, such as ignoring soul stones of players and finish the quest. :D

Right?!? "us veterans" does that mean all of the vets or just the sucky ones?
Just the sucky ones who need bugs to get "teh beeg deeps" ;)

I'm not a fan of any bugs, even when they benefit me. I've reported a few bugs in my time; the secret doubleshot from racial AA Final Strike, the spellpower scaling on Fan of Knives. The problem is that sometimes you can't tell what is WAI and what is bugged.

So rather than worry about abusing bugs, I just play the game, and do my best to roll with the punches. If there's a feature that I want to use that happens to be bugged, I'm still going to use it, as long as I'm not using it because of the bugs. It's not my job to fix the game, I just let the people in charge know ?‍♂️

Some people are just asses, and some of those people happen to be vets. Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately?) SSG doesn't do software patches for ID-10T hardware issues. I find it more useful to just mark and avoid said persons than deal with them again.
