[2] Report: what rule(s) they broke (quote them).
#1 Hacked Clients [or Modified Clients]
All types of modified clients that deviate gameplay functionally in any way from the original Terraria client is forbidden; this also includes using 3rd party programs, such as Inventory Editors, to modify your character to possess impossibilities. However, texture packs are exempt*. Warnings may be given; however, due to the nature of the people using these clients, warnings may not be required. In cases where this negatively affects other players, to a degree of selfishness, then the ban may not be appealed.
People using any Modifications for PvP Advantages are deemed worse. Therefore, they should not be warned and instead banned.
- That do not alter game mechanics (e.g. hitboxes, visibility of tiles/walls, visibility of lighting). In other words, they must keep all things intact that the originals do except the art style.
[3] Did this affect anyone (e.g. they were using their hacks in PvP)?
It affected everyone on the server.
[4] Evidence. (If this includes chat, Phase link one or more messages)
I don’t have evidence, because it happened so quick… But I’ll explain.
[5] Dimension: (if this is a server report).
Survival
[6] Roughly, the time (in UTC) the offence was made. (if this is a
server report)
4:42 a.m. Approximately
Let’s talk about it. So around 4:42 a.m. UTC. We were playing on the server. We had just run the christmas event, and failed badly. Not a single Ice queen was able to be killed. This part is important.
I had advised some of the newer players on the server afterwards that we weren’t ready for Cultist yet.
Shortly after everyone decided they wanted to try. As predicted, everyone was insta-killed. (As we weren’t ready.)
A few minutes later, I had to go for a bio break. When suddenly I hear pillar music. I look at my map, and the pillars were spawned. I was quite confused at this, and by the time I had time to question it. I saw in the chat that someone had “Soloed” the cultist. A feat that I believe impossible for the best Terraria players in the game with their favorite gear on. Lol. Could I be wrong? Absolutely, could someone solo the Cultist in survival on THIS server in the time it takes me to walk up stairs and back down? NO. It’s literally physically impossible. Even if you have Zenith and Terraprisma or whatever you want. None of which anyone has at this stage of the game.
So we did end up killing the pillars as normal. (Not that we have a choice at this point.) And died horribly on Moonlord, as we were never even ready for it to begin with.
I asked around, not knowing what was happening at the time myself. (Very confusing for someone who only plays survival…)
Nobody really knows who did it. But there was speculation and a number of people saw a person with the name “a cloud” by the dungeon at the time the cultist died.
One person blatantly asked if he hacked ofc. To which there was no response. Hence again, no evidence to post. Another time someone mentioned it, he said. “Ye I beat it… Somehow.” If you can solo Cultist in any capacity on THIS server. The only way is to know EXACTLY how you did it. Are you with me guys? Haha.
Anyway. Chat lag and insta moving chat made me miss that screenshot. So I hope you guys can check logs or something to see what really happened. But I’m feeling like this is the most sus thing I’ve seen in the game so far. Usually we at least have to try a little to find the hackers.
