Will this warrant a flag?

[Vern3r0z]

So i played the ps4 stack of this game on release on an alt account online and i have a level 90 kicksin with some ok gear. WIth the terror zones coming to the game at some point (hopefully offline too), i thought that i might plat this at some point on this account. My question is, if i link the battle net accout that i used on the alt with the assa to my current account will some trophies autopop and thus get me flagged? I think i had maybe a little over 50% of the trophies done. Or would it be safer to just start a new account with this user?

It's best if you message one of the Cheater Removers directly, and explain your situation.

If trophies are earned as a result of sharing a linked account, then yes, in short, that's considered cheating, since you're using another account's progress.

In this game there is cross progression between switch pc and ps4/5. You could theoratically get 1 kill away from level 99 on PC and the take that char to your playstation and then kill 1 enemy and pop the trophy for level 99 instantly. In theory how is that different?

Crossplay is allowed, and linking crossplay accounts is fine.
 

Re-using crossplay / linked accounts across multiple PSN accounts is not acceptable for leaderboard purposes, it breaks the spirit of the rules.

Isn’t this similar to Fortnite? If he is the owner of the account it should be treated like every other autopop right?

how would u know if an account was linked on another platform as opposed to linking from another psn account? The account that is being linked won’t have any prior progress on it

this was my thought process as well

as far as I know the progress towards trophies is not linked to the account in any way, meaning I mostly play on PS5 and as you can see I got waaay more trophies there than on PS4, even though I have the very same account linked to both consoles. so unless I go through the effort of doing everything twice, nothing should "autopop", otherwise I would get all the boss kill trophies on PS4 by just loggin into my online character.
