Monk/relic bug

[Barbarossa89]

Of course this will be banned, but how does one do it on purpose? I had never heard of the relic bug until very recently, and I still don't understand exactly what's going on.

Perhaps relics could be removed from the RMS. Trading could provide all the gold income you actually need.

what about 1v1 and the aztec bonus ?

[Barbarossa89]

The idea would be to eliminate them only for the map for the tournament, which is 4v4.

This is an issue, however, as relics are pretty necessary for someone wanting to do a serious monk rush. Can't just take them out.

Banning it is what will be done. My question, however, is what exactly is going on? Is the glitch replicable? If you don't feel comfortable posting the details here, could you at least PM me, so I know what to look out for? Is there a way to tell whether it was accidental or on purpose? I gather that it was discovered accidentally.

i only saw one rec of the relic bug. it doesn't seen accidental at all

[Barbarossa89]

Someone sent me a recording of it, and it does seem hard to believe anyone would do it accidentally. I tried to do it myself, but was unable to after several dozen tries. However, the recorded game convinced me that it is real. It's definitely cheating material, and will be treated as such under the rules.

Actions based on exploits such as this one are considered cheating and are of course banned.

You need to click alot to make it happen and it takes a while... but I can get relics in under 15 sec, but still it leaves econ and military exposed while you do it. dont think its like cheat cuz its just the way that the game is programmed. but its completely unrealistic and should be fixed.
