Not really an exploit but it was patched. Shadowbane MMO had a base class and then specialist profession at lvl 20. Most of the time your profession has all your good skills and abilities and your base class skills were forgotten. I realized, however, that the scaling for the lvl 1 shadow bolt or whatever it was called scaled crazy high if u just focused on it. Also gear to buff it was crazy prevalent since nobody used it after lvl 20...
Anyhow I just threw everything into it and had about 150% critical chance and 250% chance to hit and would roam around one shotting the evasion based gankers who would murder and steal from farming parties. I made 1 million gold in about two days and did that for 3 weeks. Paid for a semester of college selling the gold on eBay.
Eventually they patched the scaling as other ppl caught on that someone could 1 shot people with a lvl 1 attack pretty consistently. Was fun well it lasted.
