1) No one is arguing that "it only takes ONE Thousand Cuts to do anything". Duh. It's a spell and it does something.
2) My butt doesn't hurt. But I am laughing so hard my side hurts. Does insinuating my butt hurt support your argument?
3) One of your tenets of game design is to give the player a feeling of power through time invested. The problem with the FoF+1K cuts exploit is that there is no sense of power through progression.
4) No where did anyone insist that 1k cuts, by itself, is an exploit. I have no idea why you went off about how using 1k cuts by itself isn't an exploit. No one is arguing that.
5) You completely failed at making a joke about mark of death. It just came across as you having no idea what you are talking about.
6) Insisting posters who disagree with you, lack critical thinking and/or deserve an F in some fictitious classroom (as if any game forum could be compared to) does nothing to support your argument.
Your argument: FoF + 1k cuts exploit doesn't matter because after 100 hours I can one shot anything in the game without the exploit. I.E. The only thing that matters is game balance at endgame.
My argument: FoF + 1k cuts makes your level 10 (after a few hours hours of play) as powerful as one without the exploit after 100 hours of play. Balanced gameplay is important at all levels.
We are going to have to agree to disagree on how Bioware should handle this exploit. Reading back over your original post, I am starting to think it was just an opportunity for you to show off. We will also have to agree to disagree on whether people should or should not stop complaining about the use of this exploit. As long as it's an exploit, people will complain about it. If Bioware ever fixes this exploit, I'm sure people will still complain about it. That's what happens on forums like this.
1. Read Mark of Death, and then critically think about the possibilities.
2. At lvl 10 Thousand Cuts doesn't do nearly the amount of damage it would do without obtaining stuff like Mighty Offense Tonic, Potion upgrades to stack Killer's Alchemy, and the fact that you're lvl 10.
3. If they fix the exploit as you so vehemently want them to do, more power to them, I can still do the same thing I did in the video above, I mean come on really? That's like 750-800k damage. You think 1 flask is going to make a difference on a mob that has 311k?
4. The hero progression is an obvious feature of the game if you wanted to play something more "balanced" or more "strategic" you are welcome to play another game. Play Monster Hunter where it takes 10+ minutes to kill a monster and you're constantly dodging and doing "strategic" stuff to slay a mob.
5. Bioware made this game with an emphasis on story elements and hero progression, it's blatantly obvious to me, the combat system is there to make you feel powerful while starting out as this nobody weakling, it's extremely entertaining and invigorating for some people and gives them a feeling of accomplishment.
6. Look, I don't want to argue with this anymore with you it's obvious we are looking for different types of games or enjoying games with different progression systems so to each his own you know, and if I insulted you in anyway I apologize, the hospital I work for is extremely understaffed and I have to vent sometimes, and I'm sorry that you had to be the target this time.
