Introduction

One of your main Hack Wars skills is Attacking. Attacks can be performed on other players or NPCs. To use the Attack function, first do a Port Scan on an IP address to determine which ports your victim is using. The Port Scan window allows you to start an Attack directly after a scan. You gain attack experience equal to the amount of damage dealt to an opponent’s port. When an Attack is finalized, you may choose to install a malicious script on your opponent’s system, or choose one of the options that come up depending on what type of port you’ve attacked. For instance, if you’ve attacked an FTP port, you may choose to steal a file, etc.
Like other operations that an individual can perform in Hack Wars, attacking is made possible by installing an application on one of your ports. A basic Attack script can be found in the Hack Wars store. This system allows a player (with a good CPU) to perform multiple attacks at the same time (via multiple attack programs).
