Rogue / Red Flag Exploit

[Pagan Pete]

With some time to play the test server and see how the new mechanics are going to work, it has become evident to me that the Rogue / Red Flag's have the potential to exploit the ship experience system to create an unfair advantage.

The process is as follows;
1) A clan of Rogues forms

2) That clan engages in internal pvp fights to gain xp, with no real risk, as the fights are;

• Pre-planned
• Agreed upon
• Uses only ships that are expendable
• Terminate when mercy is asked for

 

3) The Rogue clans would then level their ships & captains much faster than any other nation.

I think you dont get XP or gold from free for all pirate fights.

You supposedly cannot get money or XP from Pirate vs Pirate, although I have not tested it.

Aye pyrate vs pyrate only for fun no gain

Haven't done it since the last two patches, but in the testbed before that it gave you nothing other than bragging rights

Correct. No XP, no cash. Only loot or ship. Someone will lose. So far no way around it.
