There seems to be an increase in the amount of players using hacks to win trophies in PVP. Have had a number of ss sent to me about this and just experienced it first hand. Have sent numerous tickets in with photos attached. This needs to be resolved ASAP. Seems to be a simular hack as one used in wars quite some time ago.

These lower players are continuing to use either a hack or some sort of glitch to beat and take big trophies from top players. Instead of becoming less seems to be increasing, I’ve personally lost 3 times to one of these in past couple of days as have quite a few other top players. This needs to be resolved quickly.

@hellfire what sort of hack? I mean are they using commons to beat people?

@Xarius it’s a hack they have found on a website and are using that to control our monsters and their own. So basically our monsters are their puppets, so they can beat any monster they fight

So many hackers right now in pvp. Pointless to play it. I’ve dropped almost 100 spots in the rankings in the last hour while multiple hackers with level 100 monster runed levels 3-5 beat 130 monsters runed x.

@SamIAm i was thinking it was strange to be beaten by so many low levels the past few days. Same boat as you, 130s and lvl ten runes.
Was beaten by a 105,110 and 115, 2 of them running only two low level runes and 3rd running all strength.

@hellfire wow, that is serious! Just recharge the enemy monsters while you are slowly taking them out! @Fox can you please push your people to be more active against hackers. That includes the team Jorgen Schultz is taking about in the other thread....

... hacker's should be dealt with swiftly and without mercy!!!

I fully agree, but there is more than one hack being used by players. Also another one called client free, can get all the way through maps with 3 stars as well as win in pvp, get food, gold, gems, monsters anything they want.

@hellfire maybe dont actual give the name of such hack

Hi everyone,

We are aware and already found the hack/apk. We are banning players that use this and working hard on stopping it as soon as possible.

@Fox I want to thank a player who I shall not name for his help. So thank you for your help on this

@Nathan-Woods , Hi it’s not the full name I abbreviated it so would be very hard to find using that name. Sorry if I mislead.

@hellfire oh ok perfect! Thats fine, thank you for clarifying.

actually had a new member joining 2 wars ago , and he used lvl 55 epics and beat 115 monsters in our war, first time i ever seen someone clearly cheating , hope you get rid of these scums asap :). so there seems to be hacks even for the precious war

@Fox , will SP be banning the PvP hackers for good, now..? Is there any positive progress from SP with dealing with cheats/hackers/exploiters? Frankly, it is so unfair to those of us spending hard earned cash on the game, while undesirables such as those, continue to play the game. What's this I hear, that certain teams have bought millions of gems using different countries currencies, exploiting another "glitch"..? What kind of "super sale" did they manage to buy using another currency..? Nothing accidental here, in my humble opinion...just another bunch of downright cheats! What sad lives they must lead, to constantly need to be the "best", even by crooked methods. You cannot resolve this issue by giving them another discount or a refund, & definitely, cannot let them keep whatever they bought with those "glitched" gems! Stop, letting them get by with a mosquito bite & make them feel some humiliation for their bad deeds. This is a game played by all ages, don't let us down by rewarding bad behaviour. Sorry to hear that something else is being exploited & players are wearing "halos".

So it looks like this could still be going on or perhaps it is just me, but i cannot see how this can be legit

@VargRanger

Well, it seems unlikely but hardly impossible.

Don't know your runes, but this attacker's turn order is LotA, Metalisha, Uria's Pet.

I assume all 3 of yours went first.

If all but Metalisha was denied, Enter Damageman removes all denial from Uria's Pet, and gives it triple damage, and the Pet can then do a 52,497 neutral damage AoE - enough to ohk your whole team if they aren't armoured or carrying life runes.

If all but LotA was denied, he could have cleared all negative effects from his team using Mass Refresh, then as above.

If there was no denial at all, or both LotA and Metalisha avoided denial, a Blessed Water - Enter Damageman combo on Uria's Pet allows it to do a 105k neutral AoE with Precision.

@fox another cheat at work.

Hacking is still a thing in pvp, partner was attacked and beaten by this.

I've got a screen record of my 105's being wiped out by 85's I just accepted the defeat but I may go check it out now that I've read these

Hi everyone,

How old is that screenshot? Two days ago we have applied a fix and banned players who use a modified app so currently this should not happen. We're trying to constantly improve it.

@Marianne-van-Es
Im banned for be accused of a battlehack. i beat higher lvl monsters with my lvl 100 and 105 monsters. been mailing for 8 days now to get my account open again, i dont use a hack. just have some good monsters with lvl 7 and 8 speed and strenght runes. using nishants pet reptie and rador.
nishant`s pet get all 3 opponents possed so they attack each other.
with reptie i give rador a damage boost and specialy when can use the hellbounce its over for my opponent..
can some one help me please.
every answer on my mails they say its not possible i win PVP like this

@predator did you maybe also downloaded the game via un unofficial source or downloaded any other apk mod / downgraded your game because you then could abuse a glitch?

@Marianne-van-Es About downgrading game or using old versions - bul**hit, there is certain game version below which you must upgrade otherwise game is not starting. Everything above that version is officially allowed by SP.

@AndyM Im talking about a player who knowingly used an old version of the game because he could take advantage of a glitch/bug maybe now it cant be done anymore but it could be done like a month ago. And im only a player myself and I don't really know what hackers can or cant do in the game my technical knowledge is very limited. Someone told me its very easy to see if someone uses an illegal APK Mod hack but somehow its very difficult for SP to do so, who should I believe I think if it was easy to catch hackers then there wouldnt be so many around but thats me

@Marianne-van-Es yea, I understand that, what I wanted to say is simply that there is no "misterious old glitched version". SP defines which versions are obsolete and has to be force upgraded.

Any other version, if it is not being pushed by SP to be forced upgraded, logically is good to play, isnt it? If there are indeed deadly glitches and SP knows that and actually bans players for its use, why SP is no forcing that version to be upgraded?

Just for illustration, restored old backup from my second account. Game version there is something like 6.1 i think.

Here is result:

Hi @AndyM,

Modified APKs are the biggest problem if you use it you get automatic ban immediately. With older versions, it's a bit different and we will force an update to certain version soon. I personally wouldn't recommend using older versions as some of the bugs were fixed just for the new updates and knowingly exploiting a bug for your own advantage isn't exactly fair play and we have a fair play policy.

Fox

@Marianne-van-Es downloaded with playstore and always ugrade when needed.
like i try explane to theme in my mails i play fair and my account banned for 2 days for nothing and still im banned, 10 days now
