I think it happened to me for one skill.
Was happy about being able to learn attributes nice and fast and suddenly lvl 6. Made me wonder how many people got some broken stuff without even noticing it. I already smell the storm that is coming…
Doesn’t really seem ban worthy, if someone overly abused the bug then reset all their attributes to 0. It’d be a fitting punishment.
Actually they are talking about restrictions. Not directly bans. I also think setting the attributes to lvl 0 seems good because it serves as silver punishment.
For really strong attributes this could easily mean a good number of silver.
People only learn once their wallets are hit, I’m pretty sure if IMC start punishing people that doesn’t follow the rules, bug abusers, anything thats out of the rules but not a perma bannable offense by doing a silver or TP related punishment, people will start to actually behaving like a decent person. Or even a prison system, like 100 hours logged in a instanced prison map doing exausting useless quests… I’m pretty there would not be that many abusers running around this game.
I mean c’mon, a lot of people in real life don’t steal or do “illegal” stuff 'cause they know there’d be consequences for their actions, the most effective one is the fine system, people that got fined by something, they hardly going to repeat the offense.
But on a MMO, they “break the laws” cause they know there will not be any decent punishment, they get banned and then just create another account and keep that abusing atittude going on
Thanks for promptly addressing this before it got any worse.
Just a heads up IMC.
I was one of the first persons to report it.
So please. I tested it extensively that is why a lot of my attributes are over leveled. Not all. But a lot.
Thanks!

What a joke.
There is absolutely no way you can tell the difference between players who did it on purpose vs those who did it accidentally.
There is zero information in game about the max level of attributes. Some have 1. Some have 5. Some have 3. Some have 4. some have 100.
If you ban anyone, all it will do is bring negative press. Even temp bans. Those players won’t care. They just won’t play ToS anymore and will discourage even more players from playing.

what if its not ban but full reset of overleveled attribute without compensation? They didnt say anything about bans in OP anyway. And “restrictions” can have many shapes and forms including but not limited to bans.

That’s fine and what should happen.
Fix the error and move on.
Most of my chars have overleveled attributes because I do them all like this. Unless you specifically check via F3 you don’t even notice that they are higher the trainer still shows everything as normal.
Indeed, my archer has Level 6 in one Level 5 max attribute because I didnt even know about it when I leveled it up.
Whats going to happen? I certainly won’t be deleting the character, adjust it for me or leave it alone. There shouldn’t even be a possibility of overleveling through a bug like that because the limits should have been in place that there would never be more than x level of those attributes.
Pretty terrible mistake on the programmers’ part. I better not get a ban for this or I will charge back everything I’ve paid and move on to another game. Reason for charge back? Don’t be scamming me by throwing bans around for no reason, also EULA/whatever they’re called have no hold in a court of law.
There are no ban information on post.
Probably your attribute will be reseted to 0 or will get corrected.
I couldn’t hold back my curiousty and got lvl2 transpose attribute, despite the waste of silver and chance of ruining my character. if they ban me for my experiments, oh well, I probably won’t put money in IMC’s direction again.
I really hope IMC kept track of the people who did and did not report this. As anyone who has done any sort of bugtesting knows, reproduction is essential to reports, and the higher your reproduction rate is, the more valid your bug report is. As a result, at least some of the people who have a high number of attributes leveled up are people who were reproducing the bug. If those people get punished for this it’s going to be a pretty massive blunder on IMC’s part.
What about the “ludge stock” in Silute? Are you just going to ignore it? Some people have like 3 days with the problem. Not even a single word about it. This is a shame.
I have a Chaplain lvl 195 with nothing overleveled, Wugushi lvl 205 with nothing overleveled then I have a Wizard that I started the other day that probably has everything possible overleveled. Now this was not intentional and is only because I transferred all my TALT to that character and sold it the the vendor, ended up with about 200K silver.
I max leveled all possible non 1% (lvl 100 would cost way way more) immediately. I didn’t know the max levels of them and just clicked like 10 times and spammed yes. If I get punished I will be very upset.
You can bend the words all you want, an exploit is still an exploit.

IF a player only has one or two overleveled attributes that can be assumed as a mistake, but if you find a player who recently made a new char with most attributes overleveled, that is more than just a mistake.
