i noticed after some detailed review that some ppl (in my opinion) are abusing of the siege buff (marching orders) the one that increase cast speed and attack speed + magic and physic dmg.

do you have any tools to avoid ppl that have this buff uploading session? also consider that this ppl can reset the arm meter after getting extra buffs like sod and wow

Hello,
we can't prevent that completely in ARM, because like you said players could just delete their chat log file and ARM won't be able to read that buff.
Even if ARM would read some thousand lines or the complete chat log after ARM is started, players could still fake that.

And to be honest, players who really want fake that will do that anyway.
In aiDPS, the developer can check all buffs after login and detect all buffs while using aiDPS. We are also logging all buffs, but I didn't have time to add them into the DB.

There is no point in looking at it as I said b4.
In 5.8 all external buffs will disappear after you enter last level ot ToC, so all you need to do is clear ToC ranking when 5.8 hits (like 4 weeks from now).

Have a nice day,
