I have seen at least two profiles on the rankings which I would consider to be fake or bogus.

In one case, the guy has two million AA's. Can we please filter out of the rankings any player that has more AA's than are actually obtainable? Anyone with over 2000 AA's total is currently not legit.

In the other case, the guy's charm is at 2000% instead of 200%. Can we please filter out anyone that has an item with over 1000 hp on it, or that has a charm with more than 200% on it? Anyone with an item with 1k hp or more on it, or a charm with 500% stats on it, is currently not legit.

Thanks,
Bolas

It appears that Dyfrin is trying to prove a point. This is something for Jelan to look into.

However, note that the profile does not have the Authentic icon. This illustrates the need for the Authentic icon.

Retracted the % increase since they took note, should be back to normal!

Here's one with excessive hp/ac.

http://eq.magelo.com/profile/1178484

Their arena charm has 2000+ ac on it. Pretty sure that when I did that quest, it's max ac was closer to 30.

Here's one with an AUTHENTIC tag on it:

http://eq.magelo.com/profile/57270

That shows a couple million AA's when you look at it on the ranking list (hint: sort all servers by AA's then hp, look at the top guy on the list). And when you look at the profile, it shows negative AA's. Pretty sure AA's can't go negative and can't go over 2000.

as stated in other message, capping the charms will happen to those that can be exploited.
