Here's an interesting exploit that could go viral if not fixed. A player could go afk in public games and get Legendary drops while playing Hearthstone on the other monitor.
I've always wondered why those Chinese guys go afk in my games and now I know.
I'm sure there are people who are abusing this by playing another game on the second monitor while afk on d3 on one side. Or do homework/watch a movie on the other monitor while afk on the d3 monitor. This needs a patch.
this doesnt needed to be patch since if you are grouped with friends and you go to town and they kill an elite you wont get drops because of it? its not an exploit at all its perfectly fine... other than that the player is a noob he could of just right click the player and teleport to him instead of town XD

Yeah... he sure could've. guess he was busy showing everyone how a friend drops an unid legendary just for video purpose (as if that legendary actually dropped from a pack)
showing something that have been in the game since its came out isnt really showing to be honest.. i seen this in 1.0.8 aswell this aint a bug its simple fact that you can stay behind sometimes it does happen if you are stuck on mobs or just slower movement speed you still deserve to get drops... if he was proving that you can go split farming like they are doing arreat crate and he was on tower of the demand that would of been and exploit but this isnt the case at all
I was trying to do a farm route where one player starts at the entrance of act 3 and one person start at rakkis and meet in middle to see if a legend would drop that far a way. Maybe someone can confirm if this method I describe works since it's all in one zone tab area
If you are too far away from packs you dont get loot, only thing you get loot from no matter where u are are chests. it is intended, going to town to salvage some dude opens a chest u wont miss out on the stuff.
dunno who would abuse this but if u have an afk´er in your party kick, if your friend wanna afk tell him to stop or let him, up to you he is your friend..
finding issues where there are none....next.
Ah. I think you're right that was from a chest. I wonder how many chests are there from the entrance base of Act3 to Rakkis. Should do chest runs from opposite ends to middle.
Actually, I'm not too sure if it's only from chest drops. I'm too busy to test this. I got three legends earlier doing this to see if it worked but forgot to check to see if it was next to a chest. Maybe a Blue can confirm if this is only chests? So we can farm faster
I don't think it's much of an exploit, you'll get the legendary one way or the other, and if a group is willing to put up with you being afk then let them, it's like power levelling in that regard.

Hotfix please.
