Possible duplication exploit

Had a malignant heart drop that was the same as what I was wearing but pulled 45 mobs instead of 42. Not sure exactly what I did but when I went to socket it in the ring I was using it duplicated the the ring. One ring correctly stated 45 mobs pulled and the other duplicate ring said the original 43. as you can DE these for a nice haul of materials at the blacksmith it should probably be fixed.

According to the Forums Code of Conduct , under NO circumstances should a hack or exploit be reported on the public forums. Because of the sensitive nature of hacks/exploits, posting on forums only ensures that other people are going to attempt to use them. Any poster who breaks this rule will have his/her thread deleted immediately and may be reviewed for a forums suspension.

If you would like to report a hack, cheating, or other activity against the Terms of Use, please send a detailed e-mail to hacks@blizzard.com.

My apologies, I made a mistake as well, I actually just socketed a very very similar ring imy inventory and it just looked like a dupe which it wasn’t. I won’t post anything of the sort again. Now that you mention it it isn’t a good idea, I agree

“hack, cheating, or other activity against the terms of use” – completely inaccurate, OP was simply stating a possible exploit that needed to be investigated, although I can see the reasoning behind your first paragraph

I did not accuse them of anything. I just informed them of the forum rules in case they did not know.

It is between them and a moderator to decide what to do.

If they were concerned about getting a forum ban, they should just remove the post, and email them directly, but that is up to them.

I just believe you are confusing “witnessing a player committing a hack or an exploit” with “observing that a potential hack or exploit exists” – the former being a violation of the terms of service

No, the offence is posting about it publicly, not committing it or witnessing it.

Why are you living in the bug report forum?

To help people get around bugs when there is a workaround, such as not being able to unsocket a heart when they are wearing the item.

Informing them when something is not a bug, such as how renown transfers from Eternal to Seasonal.

There are a lot of people posting about things that are not bugs and are waiting for something to be “fixed” when there is nothing wrong, such as stats being lowered when upgrading an item.

There are many more reasons to post here.

In this instance, I am informing people of the rules, so they do not accidentally get themselves in trouble if they are not aware of them.

If you do not want to see any posts of mine, I would suggest that you click my name, then change my status from “Normal” to “Ignore”.

So TLDR you like doing customer support

I mean, if the response was too long for you to read, then why did you ask?

Blizzard never responds here, and I feel bad for all the people looking for answers and waiting for replies that they will never get.

that’s a forum guideline violation, not a ToS violation for Diablo IV
