We have confirmed an issue where players may be able to obtain abnormal amount of skill points while fighting in a party as Conjurer or Thaumaturge. The issue is currently being addressed. Also we would like to remind that repeating this method intentionally to obtain abnormal amount of skill point is considered as fraudulent behavior. With players who have abused this method, an investigation shall be made and their account may be suspended in case we determine it to be malignant. The investigation is expected to take a while until the completion. For those of you who have abused this method, please report yourself through GM Call. By reporting yourself in, GM will correct the amount of skill point you have gained and the penalty to your account will be exempted. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. |

I'm gonna be pissed if they reset any of our SP. We didn't really 'abuse' it, it's kinda necessary to spam heals on the higher * LQs |

I'm pretty sure they're talking abuot people who were starting a leve, claiming mobs in parties of 15 people, not attacking it, and then just spamming aoe buffs until they were Rank 30. They won't do anything to you if you were just casting heals in a normal party. They're probably saying the investigation will take a while because they don't want to accidentally affect people who were just playing normally. That said, thanks to these people, you probably won't get much SP from healing or buffing people after the maintenance anymore. |

Yeah, good point. That's gonna suck ass too because we rarely get an opportunity to actually attack the mob unless it's 1*. |

I'm okay with this. Kinda nice they're keeping an eye on possible exploits. |

Ok, I'm glad I didn't abuse this now lol Hopefully SE really does do something about the existing characters that are high rank |

Yeah we figured this out doing Herbicide. I didint think to try and exploit it. I was just happy that we got points for healing. I assumed you didnt get points if your heal was for 0. I kinda wish I knew about this to subtly abuse it lol. Just enough to get another rank or two and catch up with Ridere\Ket. |

I knew something had to be up with that; I skillup too slowly to be seeing conjys at rank 30. I like how SE is dealing with this: turn yourself in and you won't be suspended. |

They just want to give any possible offenders the option to do so. It wouldn't be right otherwise. |

Yeah I was wondering why I was leveling so slow compaired. Id never exploit this had I figured it out. In the beta I would have for sure, back in beta you were suppose to do this stuff. If anything this is a lesson for SE. Dont release your stupid game too early. |

I'm still worried that curing took a big nerf as a result. It was hard wanting to heal in leve parties, because you never got shit for it. Hopefully we're not back to that. |

Yeah I was happy I could heal in parties (even with out being in a LQ) and get SP. This is something that never happened before. I also could get sp for healing myself. The entire "chance of getting sp" us fucking stupid. Im putting in just as much work as everyone else, why do I get less SP? |
