    Because it’s group rewards. That person gets 2k super samples, you also get 2k super samples. It, by definition, ruins progression for others.

    Might not have been clear in initial comment; on launch, people were joining open groups and cheaters were spoofing the rewards. So when a mission completed, you got a bunch of mats and stuff and your account was basically bricked for “progression” unless AH did a manual rollback.

        It’s much less of an issue now, likely due to anti-cheat and also the current bans in other countries so it’s not really spoken about much anymore. Honestly, if people wanna cheat, go for it, especially in a game like this. There is a bit of worry about effecting major orders an inordinate amount, but even then, it would probably be a small amount.
