&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;[[Leech]]ing is the act of benefiting from the effort of others, without making any contribution of your own. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In [[PvP]], leeching is almost always considered a form of poor sportsmanship because the ''free riders'' harm their partners' ability to prevail against their opponents. In [[PvE]], leeching is sometimes encouraged, e.g. [[raptor]] [[farmer]]s often invite others to come along to earn points towards the Asuran title track. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== PvP ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PvP players leech by avoiding combat. In order to escape notice, leechers will often move about and occasionally use a skill or two. These players will end up earning the same amount of faction as those actively participating and yet make it more difficult for their team to win, because they force the team to compete with too few players.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The [https://www.arena.net/en/legal/code-of-conduct Code of Conduct] specifically prohibits this type of behavior and players can choose to [[report]] those who leech; punishment usually involves receiving the [[Dishonorable]] hex, which prevents the player from participating in PvP for a period of time. For details, see [[Dishonorable Combatant System]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== PvE ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are a couple of ways that PvE players can leech: &lt;br /&gt;
* They can follow the party and collect [[loot]]. Some ''item leechers'' will wait for other players to leave an area so that they can pickup those items previously [[assign]]ed to others.&lt;br /&gt;
* They can remain stationary simply to claim rewards of any [[quest]], [[bounty]], or [[mission]].&lt;br /&gt;
