We will make an announcement later regarding when the NPCs will be available again.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may be causing.

Quest's finishing cutscene would reward the 2k infinitely as long as you had full inventory and map when talking to them. Didn't take long to find after this thread, but reported it quietly this time instead of letting it turn into another medal shitstorm. Those taru were probably making 2m/hr if ghetto rigged, much more if cleanly automated.

Well now I'm intrigued, there was no bug report unless you cheated and posted it in jp.

AND They actually listened in a reasonable time frame.

I had some help passing it up the ladder, not going to drag anyone into the topic but they read ffxiah so if they want to elaborate they're obviously welcome to. I was pretty surprised at how fast it got pulled, too.

Seems like every year another exploit is seen, these seem endless. Makes me wonder how gil has been stabilized given there are so many literally printing gil infinitely in secret through so many ways.

Gotta respect the hustle in this game. Wow.

When FFXI goes down for good, I'm hoping someone does a tell-all of these events.

It's easy to see why that would never be found during testing. That's literally the only map quest in the game that also gives another item along with the map (or the gil if you already have the map)

How does someone even figure this out?! Unless it was pure chance and they were doing the quest for real and had a full inv and double checked their Gil after the log showed they received gil

People are inquisitive and creative. It also could have been a complete accident.

Honestly, hats off to them.

More specifically, the 2000 gil+2000xp reward was patched into all the quests when they made maps available via standard vendor. Most likely, they patched it into the event handler for the cutscene without realizing that specific one had the possibility of not completing the quest.

FWIW, I did check every quest documented on wikis to give gil + items, and none of the others could be exploited the same way(likely because they were all original design and this was a quick patch).

Now I'm just going to start being suspicious of any character that isn't moving. We got another Taru that never moves that stands in front of the port bastok Mog garden boat 24/7.Go figure it out!

You should probably read the bottom of the first page and top of this page of the thread.

If SE reads these Forums, there should definitely be more posts about suspicious stuff instead of "mind your own business". :D

I am briefly emerging from my "I'm never coming back" hiatus solely to express how much I love this. This is amazing. I love this.
