The instakill hack vid

From the Reddit thread that has a video of the hack-

Check out 0:23. A tiny red bomb lands on each on-screen enemy as they die.

That red blob looks like an ability such as poison only on steroids. This would support the "draining" of oryx's health and why there is in fact a "thing"(the red blob). In other words this is something that has been programmed into the game. My guess' are that an admin with some /killall command or op item is messing with people for some reason (got fired or whatnot), some admin gave an op ability item to a player (like his little cousin? lol), or some hacker found this item and is spoofing its abilities onto his own item by "telling/sending" packets that say he has this capability.

Bottom line point is since normal players are seeing it: It must be in the code somewhere. (and I bet you're already looking for it)

After someone insta kill everything, go to the godland. Look for Djinns and tell me if you see any.

The fact that the stone guardians didn't die in the castle should already be enough

[Janube]

Djinns are unaffected- as are unactivated bosses.

Indicating that it's damage rather than an autokill function OR indicating that armor protects against autodeath as well (which would be an odd thing to program, but not impossible)

I may have noticed something strange in the video, testing a thing in game and reporting back.

EDIT: there's someting weird. Re-watch the video when the minions dies. Now, don't think about what you saw, but what you didn't see.
No damage indicator (or whatever is called) pops out, like when you instakill something legit (pirates). They are not killed by stacked stuff (ability spam?), they are doomed by a single massive hit.

Maybe.

Great perspective!

I believe its a hack and not a glitch, due too it happening other times in the same server.

This would make it seem as if the player was using (possibly) an item with an edited damage amount(, or maybe a doom bow firing constantly in all directions through walls?). Could be just an admin having fun :P

Weapon stats editing doesn't seem quite the case, it's just client-sided and causes frequent DCs (assuming it's done in the .bin whatevernumber). Also following my theory, a single shot of a DBow doesn't kill a castle minion.

inb4 swatsec pls

Exactly. Its already programmed into the game. Red blob + no damage indicator = Admin powers. Someone got admin account or its an admin messin around imo
