Implementation of exploitation fixes


In continuation of our previous notice regarding abnormal in-game exploitation and the resulting byproduct, we have now taken necessary steps to ensure all exploitation offenders are permanently banned from the game. In addition to the banning, we have applied a fix to remove the bug that enabled abusers to take advantage of obtaining Darksteel and materials abnormally. 


Our team firmly believes in the positive effects generated by clear and open communication with our global community. As such, we have decided to disclose detailed information in relation to the recent abnormal Darksteel exploitation, in order to uphold our Transparency Policy.


The following information had been collected, compiled, and analyzed through our FDS(Fraud Detection System). 


Summary of the incident:

  • Exploitation is determined to have emerged on November 30th.

  • Abusers took advantage of an unintentional Market bug where items, under specific situations, would become replicated.

  • Total number of accounts found to have exploited this bug amounts to 1,766 and 1,657 accounts had been linked to WEMIX Wallets.

  • Total number of Darksteel abnormally obtained through exploitation of this bug amounts to 55 Billion(55,222,447,677) Darksteel and 2 Million(2,196,411) Epic Darksteel Boxes.

  • One abuser had 1.5 Million(1,594,323) unwarranted Epic Darksteel Boxes in possession. This amounts to 72.6% of the total Epic Darksteel Boxes obtained through exploitation.

  • Total number of DRACOs smelted by the abusers amounts to 269,370. This is approximately 0.66% of the total number of smelted DRACOs thus far and 0.027% of total proposed issuance.


It is unfortunate that such an event has occurred. We realize that there will always be potential threats that appear in different forms. However, it is our purpose and intention to always be prepared to resolve such matters as quickly and efficiently, with the least amount of repercussions possible. 


It goes without saying, all accounts associated with the exploitation have been permanently banned. All items, including Darksteel, associated with the exploitation have also been removed from the game. Furthermore, access and transaction signing for all WEMIX Wallets linked with these banned game accounts will be restricted and their subsequent assets will be frozen.


When abusers or cheaters attempt to take advantage of loopholes or conduct actions that threaten the very ecosystem which we maintain, we have the right to exercise our authority in order to protect the ecosystem as well as many of our devoted users who we value dearly. 


As we move forward, we will reference this experience in dealing with potential threats in the future to remove abusers and to protect our valued Dragonians from any hindrances caused by abusers and cheaters.


We will continue our efforts to make sure no such exploitation or bug abuse will hinder the overall play & earn gameplay experience of all our players in the future. 


Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
