To all the babies crying about Atheon "exploit"

I am so tired of hearing you babies cry about the "exploit" of pushing atheon off. It is NOT an exploit. Just because somebody was smart enough to think outside the box it is an exploit? Not hardly. Many critically acclaimed and loved games have moments where if you think outside the box you can easily pass an otherwise more difficult encounter. Ff7 for instance has an undead boss that can be one shotted if you use an item on it that is intended to revive a player. Is this an exploit? No, it is just critical thinking. During VoG before the templar you have to down fanatics and upon death they drop an aoe. When you see this do you stand in it? No, you avoid the green shit. Why should atheon be any different? Raid mechanics generally call for you to avoid standing in aoe so it is only critical thinking to try this on atheon. Basically just because somebody thinks of a clever way to do something doesn't mean it's an exploit. I'm sure I will get flamed into oblivion for this post but I don't care because it needed to be said. Keep crying guardians and have a nice day. Git Gud.

  • Okay, put the Exploit back in, it is an Exploit. That is not how the encounter was intended to work. It is not "thinking outside the box". It is exploiting a flaw in the games AI pathing. But back to what I was saying, put it back in. Just don't allow atheon to not drop ANYTHING! Period. You want to be rewarded for beating a hard boss(who really isn't that hard to begin with) with a cheap shot? Also, using a Phoenix Down on an undead in any final Fantasy game was a game mechanic, not an Exploit, not "thinking outside the box"
