In my opinion, it's not only an exploit - it's borderline cheating. But that's probably going a hair too far.
I've seen tons of people claiming solos on Facebook, reddit, etc - and - to me - it seems like this is NOT what the developers intended. This misuse of the retreat function of the game should be patched out. And there's a simple solution in my mind:
MAKE IT TO WHERE YOU CAN ONLY RETREAT ONCE PER CHARACTER FOR THE RAID.
That solves everything and still allows the retreat function to serve it's normal and useful purposes.
I think the HAAT was partially ruined by people exploiting this feature in the game. It promoted a lack of development on rosters for guilds relying on these methods to complete the raid and has, in my opinion, put the game in a state where people aren't even trying anymore.
If you remove the challenge from something, then it takes the fun out of it. When I see guilds recruiting or posting about their guild and saying they have the "HAAT on farm" and that they use Zylo to do P1 and Zavage to do p3 - it really shows how much the HAAT raid has fallen into nothingness imo. To me, those aren't HAAT ready guilds. Rather, they're guilds who are exploiting the game to get an advantage when they otherwise couldn't - which, to me, is cheating.
Let me guess....someone solo p1 with Savage and you ranked 4th in raid because he done more damage then you :D
