Heaven's Palace question

[Andy]

Y'all not going to like what I'm about to say. As much as you all reckon it's a good thing it's still an exploit.

An exploit by defination is using a mechanic how not unintended for or/and glitch in the code to profit or/and gain an advantage. In this case both.

Everyone gains you might argue but it doesn't change the fact this isn't how Heaven's Palace was intended. We have found a way to bend the mechanics to make it easier and gain rewards we wouldn't have been able to had it been done properly. And this folks is exploiting.

I also suspect it will be changed soon so this won't happen again.

Since the developers do not tell us what the intent of the game is there can not be any exploit because of "using a mechanic how not unintended for" since we do not know what that is. As far as a glitch, this is not the case. It is simply that the players figured out how the game selects the formations for HP. So based on your definition of Exploit, it is not an exploit.
