All item duplication exploit (do not name players please)
Surena
There's unfortunately more you can do to GW.
However Anet can find out when you (for instance) stack health onto your char (and ban you) but not when you dupe items. I am sure they are aware that their system is exploitable.

WTB Anet programmers that know how to program kthx.
IMO I don't think they could do a rollback atm, best thing they can do is to shut the servers down until they get their shit together. Oh well GW was fun while it lasted. Oh btw perfect timing having this right before EotN, makes everyone want to buy it Anet.

too little too late. im just wondering what type of long-term damage this will do to the economy and their player base

That just made me so disgusted of GW right now...

for all i know, the best thing right now is remove ambraces. completely. i mean the ones existing in storage. or inventory.
as long as there is no armbrace in game for even 1 min, this entire issue gets fixed for temporary purposes to keep the economy normal.

You paid a higher price because you wanted to have it first.
Just imagine the uprising from the first XBOX360 buyers. OMG!!11! They played the 360 for two years and now the price went down for 50 bucks!11!! They need to be compensated!11!
(rolleyes emote anyone)
But for me - I'd just like to do a happy dance!
Na-na-na-na-na-na!
Na-na-na-na-na-na!
Cheap things comming my way!
Na-na-na-na-na-na!
Damn I'd LOVE to find out how it's done! Since it's cold here - and I need to buy some warm underwear to stop the shrinking!
I'd be richrichrich!
Na-na-na-na-na-na!
Ohh - and crap!
Is it fixed already?!??!
NOOEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!11!!

well, im not buying EoTN, even with all the loot scaling , farming nerfs, ect,
this is the last straw, GW had a great run. I guess this is what low budget really means, stupid nerfs and dumb, idiotic changes to the game. GG Anet

The economy will definitely take a hit, though, and only time will tell how hard.

EVERY item could be duped using the reconnect feature... stacks of ectos, perfect crystallines, whatever you want.
Who knows since when this has been going on. And if that fool that tried to trade 1750 ambraces for a mini-pet hadn't been reported by the OP, it could still have gone on, and on, and on.

Now that it's been fixed, how was it done?
amiyou
removing armbraces will cause many people to quit.. and that means that the sale of GW:EN is going to suffer real bad.....

One thing that I can't seem to figure out is why they didn't just dupe the minipets instead of trying to buy them.

Nothing is fixed. They removed reconnects to stop it from continuing but the market is still flooded.
Sadly if they rolled back it would probly have to be a month+ and I would quit playing. 10 max titles gone? no thanks.
kade
seriously makes me want to leave pve behind for good...
no way they will track down every player that has done this since they implemented reconnects ages ago. Items in pve just became utterly worthless, though they retained little value as it was...

You REALLY want to fix it, Anet? One, learn to spell Arm brace. Two, remove the Deacon of Whispers and Keeper of Whispers, from the Gate of Anguish. Done, no more honest players getting Arm braces for the moment. Three, change the reward for the gemstones from "Armbraces of Truth," (ironic name, isn't it?) to anything else, like maybe "Cuff link of Justice," or something. Then put both Deacon and Keeper back in, respectively accepting and giving the "Cuff link of Justice."
Part two: Re-release more of the rare minipets that were so sought after, either by birthdays, events, anything. Some how get more of them into the economy. You can't leave them at the rarity they are now, since everyone who sold theirs for Armbraces shouldn't be left out to dry. And the ones who duped the Armbraces to collect these minis shouldn't and won't reap the rewards.
One more thing, to be fair to anyone who legibly has an Armbrace after all these changes, allow ONE "Armbrace of Truth" PER ACCOUNT to be traded for a "Cuff link of Justice." And make it a 3 day only NPC, much like the Festival hats were still available via NPC after an event for a short time.
This is the only fair thing to do, but fat chance you'll listen.

amiyou
those duping armbrace usually want limited edition pets.
duping limited edition pets will be too easily exploited.. as anet should have a collation of the number of those pets available in gw
