If you look at my picture, i did almost 100k damage. That was done only by using forcequake, weaken mind and turbulence. Most of the time I was interrupting doors with my force quake so the bug happened there I would imagine.

Anybody with some insight?

Lolbug.

Anything over 14k is either a bug or with exploits like the 50-54 implants and such

Implying using bolster is an exploit..

An exploit is abusing a bug in the game. The implants giving said stats is not a bug. Bioware coded them that way on purpose. It's just a flawful design decision.

But it's still a exploit. Because you're exploting the flaws of the game... (Correct me if I'm completely wrong)

It's a designflaw. It's an intended feature of the game, that is flawed.

It's not a bug. There is nothing wrong with the game, so it isn't an exploit by definition.

That doesn't mean you have to agree with people using it, I'm simply saying that the word "exploit" is used wrong in the wrong way here.

Ehm, wrong. "Exploiting: Use (a situation or person) in an unfair or selfish way: "the company was exploiting a legal loophole"." They are aware of this issue and they will look into it. Check other dev replies if you still dont believe it. Now, seeing that this clearly is stated as an issue by developers, and you as a player know that this is an issue and still make use of this to achieve something that wasnt intended to be achieved, you are exploiting.

I know you use it, I know other well respected players use this. I've seen players running with 1.5k bonus damage and an 2-4% increase in secondary stats. Do you think the developers intended (as you said) to have 54 crafted items being far superior of the conquror items?

I cant stop players from using this. I can only whine about it here, and make up my own oppinions about those using it. And since we are in the record thread: its really hard to take any new records seriously (for those who cares about this kinda stuff), knowing they may and probably have been made using this exploit. Its just sad to see well respected players gaining unfair advantages over others because of this, especially when they are using it in more competitive environments as in RWZ. Thank you.
Ooo

That is actually a wrong definition of the word. An exploit is the specific abuse of a bug or otherwise unintended flaw in/at/on the target. Go look it up.

No, but they intended them to be as they are withouting thinking of the consequences.

Which is why I made sure I was quoting the Oxford Dictionary. But hey, you probably know it better than them.
