EDITED POST
I decided to edit this post because of 2 main reasons:
1st) I felt it was use maliciously against me on another URU community's forum (don't look for it, it has been moderated and wiped up since, the whole thread) to reinforce the other party's point of view.
2nd) After having exchanging PMs with Mac Fife on the same forum, I decided to stop exposing bad "exploits" out in the open since it can troubled some explorers. Even though this forum (GoW's) is more open to "exploits", I don't want to expose this "exploit" I was telling here before last saturday
It's a bad "exploit": It does give you an advantage over other explorers and it's not fear at all! You can make pellet points at a faster pace than the alpha explorers.
A "good" exploit IMO would be an exploit such as "Cleft Completion without touching any clothes on MOULa with skydiving techniques": With such, you are indeed completing the Cleft faster than the alpha explorer but there's no advantage doing such in term of gameplay. You just gained few minutes against your own gameplay... there's no substantial gain over other explorers' gameplays.
