Hello all,
We've pushed a small patch that addresses the circumstances when faction is awarded (both the loss and the gain of faction) during combat. As a result of this change, factional adjustments are only made when:
-
You've done damage to a mob.
- You've hull patched, buffed or otherwise helped another player that has aggro with the mob. "Aggro" means that the mob has become aggressive toward the player.
- You've debuffed the mob.
Formations of mobs work as a team and if you damage one member of a formation or gain aggro in any of the other methods above and then those mobs are destroyed by someone else, you receive a faction adjustment. Of course, you can't have left the sector before the mob is destroyed.
Additionally we've performed scheduled database maintenance during this downtime.
Just a friendly reminder that unattended macroing is a TOS violation.
