Getting Kicked by Mobbing Legit

I know you have a lot of anti-hack measures installed but I cannot use Shade to stomp a pile of mobs in the Scrapyard without getting insta-kicked for either 1) Hitting too many things at once, 2) Having Fox Spirits on while beating a bunch of stuff up and 3) Using my HP Regen attack on a pile of mobs.

You are persecuting the legit players more than the hackers. I'd wager 95% of disconnections happen to legit players because hackers have disabled most of the UI and safeguards in the CPU area and legit players just play the vanilla game. 5% of the time, you may get a hacker. 95% of the time, a legit player gets griefed.

Different methods need to be used, especially with 5th job here. I'm trying to grind XP and I can't because insta-kick. I shouldn't have this problem.

    I went back two instances to the area I got kicked 3 times in under 2 minutes at to find that the map had been brutally punished by a hacker that had a vacuum hack going and was killing massively huge amounts of critters (they took a Burning ZOne from 100% to 50% in about 10 minutes) and they did not get kicked. But I did.

    Fix it, Nexon. Fix it.

    Their hacks probably don't set off the nexon autokick algorithm so they can still use the hack otherwise it would be a self-defeating program. As is I get notified of using an illegal program after defeating an elite field boss and hitting the treasure chests after due to them spawning so many items per hit. I found it funny but also a bit aggravating. I would get kicked after the notice whenever I wanted to change screen/channel or just have the client instaclose.

    Half of the time

    I got kicked for spamming shining ray, one of cleric skills. I had a exp boost coupon activated at that time and a rune if swiftness.
    And what happens.
    I GET KICKED
    Its not my fault that the skill hits many enemies in a really short time span.
