Looks like they're really serious about clamping down on Meow missions

This prompted the best thread title ever on the Euro boards, E I E I D'oh
Good to see, but implementation will be messy.

'Tis quite funny seeing the "Level 50 in 6 hours" apologists out in force though ;D
Personally I think they're giving big warning so most people will take down the Meow mission themselves, that way they only have to deal with the Uber power levelled characters.

6 hours was amateur, people did it in an hour ...

1) Holy crap!!! :o
2) That makes the "we weren't misusing it!" group even funnier :D

Meow missions?
And how the hell can you do 0-50 in 1 hr even with PL that's impossible.

My understanding was that it worked something like this. Create a MA map with a custom EB at level 45, and the rest of the mobs as lvl 50 or 51 or 52 comms officers (custom group with nothing but comms officers in of your preferred level only). Bring an AoE focussed level 50 or 3 and a load of lowbies onto the map. The lowbies auto SK up to 45 because of the EB. The comms officers are minions that give XP as lieutenants so can be murdered in large quantities real fast.
Exploit
Hit lvl 40 in 35 minutes, the 46-50 bit requires a slightly different tactic with lvl 54 comms officers, but is also stupidly fast.

And the point of it all is what? To get a Lv 50? Big deal. What's the point if you haven't worked for it.

It's a way that a small minority of players measure their e-peen, "I have 10 L50 characters" (therefore I am well endowed), they seem to have lost the plot as they can't play any of them worth a damn, remember "-FIRETANK" ?

I have 33 so need a hole drilling in the computer desk ... ;D
I hope I play OK or is there something you're not telling me.

I did say a small minority ;) You just have far more time than most people ;D

Oh, and a couple of other things I didn't know about the rikti farms:
1: level 42 (exactly) comms officers were giving 3x the intended XP due to a typo on a table somewhere.
2: if you failed to level up, you still got tickets as your "levelled up" level, so you could be combat level 50 but not levelled up from 40 and earn eleventy billion tickets in no time by killing 42s.

Dear, sweet FSM....
And this wasn't an exploit how??
(the thread has got to silly pages, can't be bothered to read it ;) )
Kinda reminds me of 1.0 Smoke grenade...
