The moral of the story is it's acceptable to abuse exploits and one shouldn't be a good samaritan and avoid it.
How the hell do they do that?? I farmed those damned snowmen forever to get mine and I could have had it in 25 min?? how?

One of the missions was giving the 'first time completed' bonus every time, and beating it only took about 5 mins in HM if you knew what you were doing.

Trielementz and Keithark, and all the other people wishing they could have used a game EXPLOIT, don't fret. The thing was only possible for about an hour and a half. If you didn't find out about it on your own and just read it on a website, it was probablly already fixed by then.

someone should try Primal Echoes in polymock with a ruby djinn you would be pretty well off

All this fuss from the OP cause of a spirit makes it easier, the objective of a game is to have fun not being frustrated with the game, I understand everything has a challenge in a game. Personally I don't play polymock at all just commenting about this cause a small trick won't make the game bad just more fun.

Thanks goes to the OP

I play at a 600 ping on a good day 900 average. Last night was 1000-4000 ping bounce when I tried the spirit trick.

It still took me many tries to get ahead so i could use the spirit so i could get some fun skills to play with.

Polymock is not fun when your watching your skills blink not going off and the other piece is chipping your health down and forget about blocking/dodge/interupting anything.

Anet I used an Exploit to beat Polymock so ban me...

Basically exploits that don't harm other players are kinda "ok" imo.

PvP exploits aren't, duping isn't, etc.

True, and even as trivial as it is you can bet the "Skills Police" will still be all over this anyway if for no other reason then because its fun to tick off the masses. Plus if feeds their delusion of self importance and from their track record on these types of matters that thing has a big appetite.

well I was doing polymock with my Paragon earlier, and her energy was back to full with regen, so either it was a bug thats now fixed, or Anet had a change of heart
