Kabroz the necro
First i ask one question.Which is most LAMEst skill?
1.it's elite.
2.It's ranger skill.
3.It's ritual.
4.It causes bleeding.
It's Lacerate,the most worsest skill.But it is realy so bad?NO.
Well here's instructions.
1.Equip lacerate.
2.go play polymock.
3.Fight normaly.
4.After your 1st piece has defeated, you are to choose next piece.
DONT TAKE IT!(unless your opponent have more than 90%HP)
5.if he have less than 90%,cast lacerate.
6.cast once again.It will cause bleeding= -10degeneration
7.Rinse and repeat!
Well,if you didn't understand PM ME!
Critic against this:
Q:THIS IS CHEATING!!!!
A:Yes,it is. But lacerate was worsest skill in game, so this isn't so bad.
ARENANET will propably do something, to make lacerate more powerful.
i didn't posted this for all players cheated, i just want that Lacerate will be buffed.

That exploit is nothing new.... people have been taking ritual spirits and ranger spirits into Polymock for easy victories since it was discovered.
I personally don't do it, being it's an exploit, and you're risking account banning for not reporting that bug and using it.

Not the only explorable bug posted on fan-site forums.
I guess most of them are reported to the game designers as well.
Some bugs seem very easy to fix, wonder why they aren't fixed yet....
To the OP's statement that he post this here, and explains how to exploit it at the same time... and then says "I did not post this so all players cheat"
Why didn't he report this to Arena.net instead?

The moral of the story is it's acceptable to abuse exploits and one shouldn't be a good samaritan and avoid it.

The funny part is, most people who cry about exploiters don't even care about exploits.
They just want to see as many people banned as possible.
The moral of the story is: be in on such stuff before it becomes public knowledge. In and out, then let the latecomers take the consequences.
And, like poker, knowing when to stop is the key to winning.

Purely for the sake of research (cough) - could someone explain something to me?
Is the OP saying that, after your first Polymock piece has been defeated, you can refuse the next piece and return to your human self?
...rather confused here (and I suck at Polymock)

Its not like polymock is super important to keep ballanced. Besides, little exploit fixes nicely iniability of some people to win /which is not surpsising because when your ping is over ~400ms, you just cant dodge or interupt so your eventuall skill does not help. And lot of people with fine ping just suck.../
People cried over forums that they are blocked from asuran summons, i would think that 1sp, 1k gold and 5 minutes capping lacerate is okay price for them to get past it.

It's not a bug or an exploit, it's creative thinking.
Creativity to get around bad pings, buggy AI and Anet's lack of forethought.

Yeah, I think Anet let's an apparently useless skill sit around for a year or so to let people find a use for it. Lacerate just found it's single use in the game. That's why they finally changed Otyugh's Cry. It was never useful under any circumstance.
Unkillable Cat
Thank you so much for this, its gotten me past that evil midged in gadds emcampment!
Personette
I just tried this...either the bug has been fixed, or there's something I don't understand. I started a game of polymock, I died, I closed the box instead of picking a second piece, I cast a spirit...and nothing happened. My opponent wasn't registering as an enemy, so the spirit wouldn't harm him.
Is that why it has to be a ranger spirit that will affect anyone, not just a foe?

you need to cast it, and then click "start round" while the countdown is occuring, your opponent will be bleeding.

Curse You
I don't think this really matters. Unless you have a really bad connection, Polymock is quite easy. I can defeat Hoff (the hardest guy) easily with just the pieces obtained from doing the Polymock quests.

cast it once, cast it again when it recharges, your opponent starts bleeding...
keep casting until they bleed to death...then you are forced to choose a piece and the next round starts

If you suck at Polymock like me you aren't still granted a surefire way to win. If your opponent beats you always first, you can get a draw using Lacerate, but you still need to beat the last piece on your own.
Damn Blarp and his elementals! RAARGH!

wich i cant manage cause i suck and all this trouble for some goddamn pve only skills damn smelly smartass asura
zwei2stein
Well, yes. To make this really work you have to get "ahead" oponent, which means that your first piece must bring down their first AND get their seccond to <90%
Or that your first two pieces must suceed in beating their 1st and 2nd and getting third to <90%
Both situations mean that you are likely to win anyway.

Maybe they should start rebalancing Polymock.

Dunno...maybe I don't have the right mindset for it but I can't win even when using this trick. Doesn't bother me...I don't get much out of it.

When in doubt, lacerate out

However I have heard if you cast an Ele ward just before starting the round it will be on you at least for a few seconds at the start which may help.
It seems to me this game has a severe problem any way so anything that can help is a good thing. I mean the fact that people are paying 50-100k for single Polymock piece just to beat it because they can't otherwise is a big fat sign that there is a major problem with it.

Fixed by ANet in between rounds you are down to zero energy and it doesnt recharge. I still cant beat Blarp!!

lol, its a old idea, and its not worth getting banned for something that stupid...

I think the biggest problem with Blarp is his casting speed; I open up the round with the biggest hit first then the two interrupts and concentration and in between those four casts I end up at half health. He is so fast I don't even see what he hits me with and he spams his low hit one twice for everyone I fire off, it is like rapid fire can't even dodge it. He must have between 0-1 second recast times and instant recharge times on most of his skills which is just stupid.
I have not even got his first piece past half way down in the first round before dying. Because of this guy alone Anet has no business banning anyone who finds a way to cheat this Polymock game it deserves to be cheated.

Polymock is one of those things that must have seemed like a real good idea at the time.

And before people wonder -- I beat the Polymock quests, without the epxloit mentioned here. Yes, it can be beat; no, it isn't a fun game.
It all goes back to putting FPS gamers in charge on balancing and designign what is advertised as an RPG -- the focus is on action and reaction, not on critical thought and strategy.
Another reason to avoid GW2.
Mordakai
Yep, Polymock is very frustrating.
And, to make it worse, once you accomplish the goal of killing more powerful opponents with weaker pieces, you really have no where else to go.
Not the best way to design a "mini-game."
