Guild Wars 2

Hello,

It seems to be like a growing issue or something, but I find more and more people combat logging in WvW, twice today in 1on1 battles where I down the person (one time a thief/scout I had been chasing for like forever).. what do they win? Nothing.. they avoid a small repair fee, but to me it is really frustrating. If you die it means you screwed up and you deserve to die. I never avoid dying by alt f4. I just feel some kind of penalty system would be in place for this..

Thanks

Make it a few seconds to work out and you will still be able to kill them. This would be easier and more fair than to build in a penalty system.

This is game bug section for game bugs. You may want to do this on the suggestion section instead.

I just figured combat logging was not intended in Guild Wars 2, so I personally consider this a bug that needs some sort of fixing. So in my opinion it goes in both suggestions & bugs. I mean honestly, how many times did you res a downed/killed player in LA, this means they died in an instace/PvP/WvW and logged out.. I see it everyday. I also see people combat logging when I’m fighting them, personally it bugs me a lot.

Just a bunch of QQers

I liked the dishonored system in GW1 pvp. Idk how that could be implemented into wvw. Maybe get dishonored if logging out mid-combat.

Easiest fix, add a countdown upon disconnect, in WvW only (about 10 seconds?). Thus the trick won’t work to avoid certain death. Note this is a serious issue due to effects triggering ‘on kill’ – it could become a major exploit.

Dishonor could easily cause trouble to players suffering frequent disconnects, effectively locking them out of pvp/wvw (pvp being particularly bad in my case due to the frequent maploads there… which is my main d/c risk).
