Infinite gold & items bug

[oldschooldiablo]

There where two post by EHG around this time. The one with the mid season reset didnt speing up untill they got backlash about reseting due to it.

I remember it cuz i even posted on that thread saying if its about the gold exploit just reset the economy not the whole season. As well as others sayinf the same thing.

It was a couple days later they anounced the reset pole that lasted 48 hrs

Might take me a bit to find it unless they deleted that post. At work currently hard to dig for stuff right now

There was a LOT more than just resetting because of the dupes…
Yes, they initially announced the wipe along with announcing the Event, but there being a dupe was the smallest of all the reasons they decided for a wipe.

@EHG_Steve

We have heard you loud and clear about wanting an economy reset, and we agree that this is beneficial for multiple reasons.

The first reason is that game difficulty should be balanced by player skill and effort, not by someone’s ability to exploit game mechanics or violate Terms of Service. When these things happen, we understand the frustration they can cause, and rest assured, we take it very seriously.

The second reason is quality of life. We have several requests that would improve the game’s quality of life, and waiting for a full-cycle patch to deploy them is longer than we want the community to have to wait. While the ability to deploy Cycle changes won’t always happen, this upcoming event seems like the perfect time to do so.

Lastly, feedback. Quite simply, we have many things we want to implement sooner rather than later, and our players have been offering great suggestions on which we want to act. We feel a Cycle event & refresh would be an ideal way to implement some of these changes and gather feedback for other related features that we are potentially looking to move forward with in subsequent Cycles. As with all new ideas, your feedback is one of the most important things to us, so let us know what you think of these new features on our Forums and Discord.

Then, after player’s feedback, me included, saying it was absurd for them to decide on a Wipe mid-cycle without asking for players feedback on this decision, they made a new announcement with the Poll, letting players decide what actions they should take. And the majority of players decided for a complete wipe.

We would love to hear from you regarding our upcoming Event Cycle plans, and our original announcement of doing a cycle refresh by participating in this community poll: Cycle Refresh Feedback

Thanks again for your support of Last Epoch, for taking the time to give your feedback, and for helping make the game the best it can be. Keep an eye out for some additional polls and surveys coming soon so your voice can be heard for future developments. Our team is excited and working more efficiently and better than ever to get the next big updates for Last Epoch in your hands.

Yes, that is more or less what I remember. The main reason for the reset wasn’t the exploit but rather adding some new stuff (and, honestly, to try to keep us entertained for a little longer while we waited).

I know the gold dupe wasnt why they did it. It waa the wording that set people off. Including me.
