Extended afk meditation exploit
As I was working on closed caption commentary in the Absolver gameplay videos I've been making, I noticed that being AFK in meditation for extended periods of time is a great way to farm loot that you didn't earn. Whether or not you need to be AFK at one of the essence stones is not something I've tested.
Anyway, there probably ought to be a fix for this because if some players realize it they might be inclined to (possibly?) bog down the server while afk, instead of logging out, for instance when they go to sleep or to work..
You can see what I mean in the video below at {00:25} - and as another small glitch, somehow Revario gets stuck in the wall, and that is shown at {01:50-2:30} or so in the same capture. After Revario finds his way out of the wall and is defeated, I collect the rest of the loot scattered throughout "the hunting path", while fighting and commentating on other aspects of the game. You can see the video below :
Thanks for all the continued work on this great game. I have a lot of fun with it.

Thank you for you support.
yes each time i looked at the knee to see if he had moved.
Imagine if after 3 days he decided to get up and get all the loot xD
Honestly, I'm unsure about how the loot works in this game, and it would be nice to know if I'm picking up others loot when I'm cooperating.. Do we each get a "copy" of the item dropped, or is the other player is getting jipped when I pick up all the loot I see? It seems like I get my own copy of loot because otherwise some other player would have probably picked all that up.
Cheers
