Dear Intrepid- A Comprehensive list of Exploits, please

Member, Alpha Two
Dear Intrepid and AoC Community,
It has come to my attention that we testers of the Alpha 2 of Ashes of Creation are in need of a comprehensive list of found exploits or at least things that we should not be doing while testing the live A2 servers.
I do realize there is conduct that is absolutely obvious 'do not dos' that are TOS violations and overall bad conduct.
But there are also things we do or try to do that might be seen as violations that are less obvious.
My request as a player to Intrepid and the AoC community at large is for two reasons. So we know without a shadow of a doubt what not to do, and to promote 'Clever Gameplay.'
Let me explain. Clever Gameplay is not meant to fair. Legal, yes. But not fair. It works on the concept of being able to do something anyone else can repeat, but very few people will think of or go out of there way to do.
Out of the box thinking.
Being able to get height advantages and decent vantage points in PvP.
Using terrain to better set up ambushed.
Having a raid's worth of Vanguards (yes, I am Team Vanguard) and mages to pull people out of a boat\raft and cc them underwater to drown them.
I am pretty sure there are people in the community with a better imagination than myself.
Again, I felt it was necessary to address this and promote discussion. I would like for skill based game play to be a thing to encounter in the world of Verra. Thank you all for your time.
