Bombs seem to be checked serverside so that they cannot be hacked (assuming for farming purposes), but arrows aren't. They should be.

I noticed around last summer that many people on the daily kills boards mysteriously drop 0 arrows every time you kill them, but respawn shooting a million more of them. I was PKing in Graal City last night and noticed two people who were doing this while PKing in these massive mobs. It's way too easy to hack infinite arrows using CheatEngine, and seeing as how many people have been speeding recently I assume it's probably already a problem that just no one else has really took notice of.

Sometimes its because of lag, also I'm not sure if arrows are supposed to drop 100% of the time, they could also be buying them from their homes or the bombs and arrow shops.

I'm pretty sure that you were doing the same thing during that time. My baby pkg account saw you spamming arrows for like an hour. Mizochi saw that too, but she's a fan, so she wouldn't admit it.

I know players abuse this. One day I noticed some dude spamming, so I stopped and counted like 400+ arrows before I pm him. Then he disappeared. Weirdly it was a noob account with real low hours and really high kills.

Nah, I'm talking about adding someone and killing them over and over and seeing them spam arrows every time without ever dropping any

We all know you would have went full Perez Hilton mode and recorded a video at 3 different angles if this were true, come on
After seeing people doing this though, I can admit to logging on a noob account to see if it was possible, which it is

Yay I'm off the ignore list.

Don't need to record as long as you know that I know.

How did he get me? The prez hilton thing?

Who recorded the girl using the double device method? Who did this thread to show people that the current daily leader is abusing the infinite arrows? Yup, sure got me  

The **** did you just do MBK?

and this was supposed to be a "wink wink" pic. ;) lol  

And for the record the Bahamut guy is not hacking infinite arrows, he even showed his gralats on request, he's just spamming like mad on a day where there is a ridiculous bridge mob

I also think there's an issue with arrows being affected by draw distance on PC - I see that lots of players on iDevice can shoot arrows from far, far away and it can hit players, but on PC it seems like a very limited distance
Can't 100% confirm that, but it seems the case

I stopped using arrows most of the time. If I do buy arrows i'll die and lose like 50% of them straight up.Also I shot someone from top of cave at York when I was at bottom and they didn't receive any dmg but when I went up to them and slashed them they did. Idk if it's just me or something to do with if the enemy is moving or something.  

So this is requesting for serverside arrow scripts? Itll be just as laggy as serverside bombs, but Id still support it. Arrows hacks were a problem at the same time bombs were changed, so I dont know why arrows werent changed too.  

I still suck at using cheat engine on graal.  

So I was helping out 13 last night and someone said on chat "wow the daily leader almost has 10k kills"

Now I know why you made the thread old man. You were worry your 10k arrow hacked kills was going to be surpassed .

because arrows can't farm gralats?

Nah ive seen people on PC shoot an arrow and that crap would follow me halfway through the map if it didnt hit something or someone.
