The most common definition of "exploit" is: to make the best use of.
So, by that definition, yes they are exploiting it. Should it be frowned upon? Not at all. Just stop it before it happens, or look at yourselves for being so oblivious to your castle.
I would only use this move while on rogue, just made my job easier. I never noticed before that they did dmg to the gates so if Rubewaker make a coding mistake, which could be a HUGE possiability, then why not use it. Its not a hack or anything illegal that the player is doing. Ppl are simply taking advantage of Rubewaker's coding and using FoT's as a siege weapon. If you dont defend your gates and towers you will lose plain and simple and if u allow a rogue to stand there and plant FoT's at you gates then you my friend deserve to have your gate taken down.

So it's not supposed to happen then right? Damage dealt by faces is not supposed to hit the gates?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
No.
For multiple obvious reasons.

Tbh i dont think its an exploit or whatever you wanna call it. SNIP so if Rubewaker make a coding mistake, which could be a HUGE possiability, then why not use it. Its not a hack or anything illegal that the player is doing. SNIP.

So if it is a coding mistake and you use that , thats an exploit.
Thing that bugs me most is no official response from Froggy who could clear this all up in 2 mins .. Bad Froggy for letting us twist in the wind.

That sums it up right there, Nytefall comes on says exploit/no exploit, the end. While I appreciate Kalvan posting he is still just a player like us, he may use it himself. The GM/CM always answer the bubble gum cotton candy threads but pass over these ones. Even if it is an exploit expect it to be done and watch your gates.

We've reported this matter to the developers, as we're not completely sure if it is working as they intend or if it is something that they did not anticipate.
However, at this time, we do not feel it is an exploit, and will not penalize players for using this tactic.
Use it or not, as you see fit or as your strategies require.
Above all, have fun!
