Thread: The state of Dwarrowdelf PvMP

Here is Sycarius farming a couple freevers.




Here is a video I captured. A freever multiboxer being farmed by freeps...

Irrefutable proof showing freeps cheating. The proof is in the video. The only question I have is... why do you even come to the moors?

This is what the freeps are doing on Dwarrowdelf. Pretty pathetic I'd say.

Probably for the same reason others do, To get gear or a new shiney badge.

no need to worry, in Turbine's book this is all fine. I'm surprised it hasn't become more popular, I mean fast and easy rewards, no consequence, what downside is there? Sarcasm obviously not the Turbine not caring part though, neither do I care at this point I stopped playing months ago cause I gave up, for a reason that many share at this point in time.

My word, here as well?

Lol he doesn't even care about doing it considering he is nearly right outside the grams front door. Looks like the farmers win in this game, considering Turbine does nothing.

I'm going to say that not all, or even most freeps do this on dd. theres a handful that do it.

I don't do it.

I'd say it's an employee from Turbine who doesn't know how to auto rank.

Too many are doing it. These are just the ones i've caught and been able to record.

Sadly Turbine doesn't care. Banning them would mean lost money for them. However, I know a guy who asked for rep in a post and is banned from the forums.

In game farming = ok
Forum rep farming = bad

Makes complete sense!

How is this cheating? He is not breaking any official rules. And what do you care, anyway? He is a freep. What does he have to gain from farming rank? A cosmetic cloak?

And, honestly, this is nothing different from a group of 12+ farming rez or gv/grams for the 3-4 on the other side. Farming is farming. If you're camping rez in a raid, you might as well just be farming someone who is feeding you.

I changed my view on farming once commendations came out.
Now, I don't practice it, but it is the most efficient way to beat the unholy grind put in place by ZC.

Tried to bring this to their attention as it was happening on my server too. Received an infraction. Even had my signature pointing to my YouTube account removed because the cheater video was on there.

Long story short, they know it's happening. They. Don't. Care.

GW2 Please!

That makes absolutely no sense.

There's been a rash of fightclubbers on Menel too. It's part of the sad reality that is the Moors.

Commendations. AKA Currency which encourages store-bought skills and other store items, at the cost of encouraging rampant keep-flipping, multi-box farming, greenie farming, raging PvE and urination on the grave of PvMP, 2007-2010.

I meant the change in view based on the reason he gave....

Farming rank is not something I would do on any toon I play. If I was going to farm, it would be for commendations. So I'd level a freep to 60+, mule it into the moors with decent gear for it's level, and hit up the freevers.

I have absolutely no interest in rank farming. The bi-product of farming commendations this way is rank, hence why I would do it on a dedicated farming toon that I would not play for any other purpose (Unless it was for PvE, some of the best PvE items for some classes are rank 8 gated, but I'm not really interested in alts).

I'd be dead upfront about all of that too for anyone who was to ask.


I'll let you decide if that makes me a bad person!

A big excuse creep rank farmers have used in the past is "i farm rank so i can get all my skills because freeps can start in the moors with all of theirs". Do you believe that is justified?

Basically Turbine doesn't care. They say they do but apparently the evidence they require exceeds both video and screen shot sources. I think you have to have a notarized document signed by the pope before they will bother to take action.

For that reasoning, I can understand, wouldn't agree.

However, right now it is more than just unlocking skills via rank (which I am happy to do normally) it is the gating of skills through commendations which does not sit well with me.
