Q:

Thing is: I leveled my little Asura thief in the Bloodtide Coast. Here, I run in something definitely strange – a few healing towers, left behind in the middle of nowhere. Strangely, they were placed in somewhat curious way – two were build on top of each other, like someone wanted to hide their numbers. (mind you – can give you more detailed screen, somewhat more convincing: the turrets [another ones, a few meters ahead] that look like one turret even at close inspection – they only have two names to show that there are actually two towers here)

As far as my understanding of engineer abilities go, it’s either a bug or there are a few bots near. And in both cases, it asks for report.

So – basically – what should I report? Bug? Botting? And in second case – how should I do that? Any ideas?

ANet has stated that they do a thorough background check before handing out perms ban so its a good idea for us as players to report suspicions as well so they can take into account the activity from these players and number of reports they have received etc.

Oh yeah, you gotta watch those healing turrets man, they’ll farm mobs no problem!

Is this serious? Obviously he just left them there on his way to another area.

Sir, speaking in this tone without doing proper investigation of issue is plain disrespectful.

But, since some things needs clearing:
- barring elite skill Supply Crate, there’s limit of one healing turret per engineer. Two, with Supply Crate elite skill.
- moreover, it’d be extremely hard to have two pairs of turrets that ‘overlap’ – you’d basically need four engineers for that, standing right besides each other (to the point their char models clip). I guarantee you won’t be able to use Supply Crate to create such an effect without much tries.
- assuming they use their maximum limit of two healing turrets, you’d still need three engineers.
- towers vanish, if you change zones or logout – and looking that it was 4 a.m. in Europe, where the server is located…
- leaving the tower behind nets you 60s cooldown, when you’ll need next healing skills.

etc., etc. So we have 3+ engis playing in the middle of night, that for some strange reason stacked their towers in the way presented in attachements, then for some strange reasons ALL left their towers behind, etc. …

Yeah, it’s definitely possible. But then again – I’d much more believe that five ‘FDsgrar’ range with identical bears are genuine players. (hey! – they could be big, extended family of twins with poor imagination for names)

Hello everyone.

Velg, in this situation I would suggest you to send the screenshots to Customer Support directly and explain them your suspicions, as there is really no definite way of looking into this issue. You could choose the Bug tab for that.

Thanks!
