Ok, the trick is this. You have to use allwarps or superwarp to warp to the Home Point in Al Zhabi. Then, once you have zoned there the HP will be visible. If you trade it a Medal it will give you 99 back. Go try it.

Omg it worked! I now have 100 stacks thank youuuuuuu

Just wanted to add that it works with any item, not just medals.

Wait what? That old home point they removed from the game back in... 2006 was it? That's what this is all about? I haven't thought about that old relic in years. And you're saying that to completely negate the damage they would have to roll back the servers to 2013? That's when they changed the home point system to allow warping from one home point to another. It's also when they added all the extra home point crystals to all the outlands zones so we could warp to whatever BCNM or arena we needed to.

So the gist of this is that through sphaghetti code the change to the home point crystal system in 2013 opened up a loophole with the one home point they deleted, and any app that allowed you to "see" wat was hidden server side enabled you to interact with it. Because normal players aren't supposed to be able to interact with it they didn't bother coding it with security checks, and now this is apparently happening? That about right or am I way off base? I have zero desire to find out personally. I want nothing to do with this whole mess. But as an IT professional IRL, the inner workings behind this issue have me curious about its general nature.

No one should warp to Al Zhabi. DirectX is a troll.

Assume this is basically the same exploit as years ago. Where people got AG weapons instantly(when they were 3k Cinders/Dross). Recall people talking about it on BG when the announcement of no more major updates happened.

I figured it probably was. Like some of the others I'm more than just a bit curious as to how the heck people are pulling this off. Whenever this mess is patched out It'll be interesting to know just how the heck this happened. I have no desire to get involved with this mess, and I'm sure whatever consequences s-e dishes out are well deserved, but the technical aspect behind this is interesting if nothing else.

dude stop asking for the exploit, no one is going to tell you.

no one is going to tell you once it's fixed either. if ffxiah staff has half a brain.

Senkyuutai, you do not know what you're talking about. stop crying wolf. you want to pretend like you're in the know but you aren't

I'm getting mixed signals from you bud
First you were calling people out even if they weren't involved, then you wanted the Lua, now you want heads to roll but also want the exploit

what's going on here
character conflict?

Ya'll will be in my History of Final Fantasy XI when I finally get to 2019.

Can we return to the drama days of crafting torques equipped in every slot instead of this?
