in fact most of my AEQ on players is all pre the annoucments, so im good to 'game the system' i spose

sorry for all the guys who only got AEQ after the rules. shoulda been quicker and known they wouldnt have any concrete rules down for a season or so.

Yea, that's pretty bogus. I suspect they're change it back since they just changed the rules out of nowhere. I thought catch and bort learned their lessons multiple times now about not being clear with game changes and changing rules around back and forth


Not about gaming the system but players still are trying to compete for season 22 and 23

nope just never jumped on the game the new AEQ bandwagon

sorry some of you lost out on the master plan

you can tell by the amount of rage who tried the hardest to game it


i didnt do anything with it, but i can understand the bs that comes with telling people one thing then switching it up them especially when money is involved

how can you game something you dont know is gonna change?

the gaming would have occurred after May 2nd when the future changes were announced

cos catch told people to purchase AEQ even if you didnt need it as it was the safest way of getting the shopping tokens back

now what he told people to do is in fact detrimental to their build/plan whatever

whats your problem

they can still swap it right?

So those people who rolled 5% hold block can change it to catch ball which saved them shopping trips and helped their build

you can still GAME it - if you read this thread properly you can still do so if you created AEQ before the original annoucements. i dont have many dots that have purchased much since them purely because it mostly didnt seem worth it, so it really wouldnt affect me much, but that doesnt mean im happy seeing them move the goalposts when they feel like it, when really they are hardly gonna give many people a huge advantage. it will be miniscle if someone worked it as best as possible

What is the problem?


That's its retroactive for the 50 days prior?

shop for a 5% (any offensive modifier) item now...

refund the BT piece, and swap the recently shopped for piece to net gain ~45 tokens.


This is a much greater "exploit" then refunding the pieces made between May 2nd and now. Especially if you created the original piece. It's not that big a gain if you shopped for the original piece and got it fairly quickly (since you have to enhance the new piece with an attribute for 40 bts).

so you can help your build within the rules of the game still, but should you have got a 2% or 3% having been TOLD you could refund it at a later date - that is gonna end up costing you

dems the breaks

although why would u buy 2% or 3% if you know any 5% can be swapped

surely you can roll a 5% something

how is it an exploit if it is open to everyone?

I'm more surprised that Catch and Bort still make the same mistakes with stuff.

I'm sure Catch wishes that in his original announcement he included the May 2nd thing but he didn't. I don't think it's right for him to edit stuff and go back retroactively after telling people one thing only to change it.

He probably should just chalk it up to a learning experience and not announce changes until they're ready or at least just say "we're planning on cutting down the % on AEQs for s24. details to come" if he's that impatient. Or at least figure out a few more details before posting
