You can also see he claims to have made 608 plat and 119 from using a "bot to play all night"

It is somewhat hard to see but it says 17 hours and 26 minutes. 65535 stats and when I tracked down his hero he had the astral god's gem as well. (Also he claimed to have been PL to only 809 then he leveled himself and got his own money to tome, which at 10,000 each would take about 78 plat credits to get stats maxed out like that-in 17 hours.... yeah right. I just don't believe this guy at all. There was 2 people over level 900 in the game and we both had 35+hours and nowhere near his stats)

i have max stats on my pr, and i did it really early on, its not that expensive considering 40,000 is 100 to a stat. I also have max stats on my ele who only has like 6 hours played, (i accidently used the 2 heros glitch b4 i knew about it, and power leveld myself... oh the things bot cause) i wouldnt say this person deserves a ban, with 17 hours, he easily could have power leveld and gotten to 999

also, he wouldnt even need a bot, just leaving the game on with demon nation would have made him that kind of money...

IDK, im just saying this seems reasonable to me considering ive got max stats and lots of money on my own chars without too much more time played than that

2 Iron Bucklers: 1 - (1-0.6)(1-0.6) = 1 - (0.4)(0.4) = 1 - 0.16 = 0.84 = 84% to block 20 damage; 0.84 x 20 = 16.8 average

Well I'm not going to go into the double hero thing in order to avoid a 3 day ban like this guy got.

Clearly that way is not cool with the maker/forum keepers. The math tells you that it would cost 78,000,000 gold. When you leave the game on with demon nation sin comes and blows up your shit. Considering roughly half of the game is in sin time which is pretty much pointless to try and do anything unless your geared out to the T..... means his 17hr is more like 9 hours of getting stuff done. Sure you could get level 999 from powerleveling, but max stats, lvl 999, the orb of azertha or whatever its called.... yyeeeaaahh.... the more you think about it then the more it shows he hacked to get it.

You can base in the bottom right or the orc base which can never be broken into by the sins.

i will agree that having the sphere is pretty unlikely, but maybe he was in a game with someone that could kill azzazoth and he let him have it?
im just saying its possible, and not so unlikely that i would just flat out ban the guy without more evidence.

also, less than half the game is sin time, he sped up night so that it doesn't last nearly as long as day.

IMO needs more evidence, but not up to me, just putting in my 2 cents.

it's a 4:1 ratio: 1 minute of day = 2 secs. 1 minute of night = 1/2 sec.

But the bot thing sounds sketchy...I've only heard of gaming bots in Diablo II..I thought wc3 just had ghost/host bots..but idk wacko

When faced with two choices just simply flip a coin. Not because it settles the question for you, but because that one second it is in the air you suddenly know what you are hoping for.

Crafty. You should remove your post. The other person I spoke about received a 3 day ban for giving the same information you have.

i edited the post so it doesn't explain the glitch as well anymore >.> also, if bud bus read my post, and i haven't gotten banned yet, i assume that means im not going to be banned for something i did at least 5 or more months ago, on accident, and only did once. Besides i dont even play cot anymore =/ just waiting around for the next v.

anyway yea the bot does sound sketchy, i haven't personally seen any bots, but i also haven't looked that hard for any either. but he did have 17 hours, id say power leveling to 800 takes about 2-3 hours if ure not rushing it hard, assuming the person who plvl'd him also got him items he could easily have farmed 78 plat getting to lvl 999 in 14-15 hours.

seems fine to me, only thing i would really nitpick is that he has sphere, i have around 100+ hours on my pheonix ranger and i still cant get that damn thing =/ lol

Fyi, I cannot ban. Valkier does that for the site, and dark does it for the map.

just so you know, even if it wasn't possible to farm that much plat/arch in the time he had, it is still possible to give it to another character. its an annoying process that involves a lot of clicking, but I've seen it done still in the resent versions to give a low lvl an abode, so theoretically he could have gotten a friend who'd spent many hours collecting to give him it instead as well. But just from scanning the posts it didn't sound like he did that. just throwing in my 2 cent. as for weather or not its enough to ban, it'd be up to dark anyways. though I'm sure he appreciated the input of others on the subject :3

I'm not obsessed with Cute things......I just like them better then everything else <3

i figured as much, but if you had read this, i would figure if i had said anything worth banning it would have been relayed to valkier.

i dont get on much, and i play on west, but what times do you get on? time zone for me is central U.S. i think... i would definitely get on if i could get some help, usually playing cot for me is just either fooling around on my savior, or helping out people under 999

Although i already think this guy hacked as it is, it would be nice to know what kind of gear he uses.
