Guild Wars 2

I see a lot of post about hackers, but the biggest problem on my server atm is an exploit. Or a flaw in the design of the maps, as you want.

I don’t want to post a video about this exploit because I don’t want to diffuse it, but there is a way to jump over the outer gates in Etheron, without any hack.

Should we report the kittens who do this ? In fact they’re not even going through the game textures or anything. They just use their skills…. and then they kill our workers (=no upgrades) and our siege weapons :’(

Please, fix your maps.

Report the “bug” IN GAME and on the technical forum. Posting it here will not help.

The players are not in the wrong, ANET needs to fix this.

Both Anet and players are guilty.
It’s obviously an exploit, and players shouldn’t use it.

Imagine : You find a secret path which allows you to go inside a Bank. And then you rob it. Would you say : “Hey, it’s the bank’s fault ! They didn’t see there were a hole in their walls !”

I know how it’s done, and it’s not possible on every profession. As far as I know only engi’s can get in the outer part of hills.

It’s the player’s fault for abusing this, and not Anet’s fault. Yes they should fix it. If you use it you can get banned, altough if it’s used for map completion I 100% understand why it’s done xD #saynotomapcompletion

I wouldnt say anything but take a run for it …XD

Also still need to fix the invulnerability spots along the edges of the borderlands… Just pulled a guy down from an ac at the ne entrance to north camp, and he ran straight into an invulnerability spot. Rude.

if you see a person using the exploit and you want to report them so that they are suspended/banned, report it in-game.

if you see or discover an exploit and you want to report it so that it gets fixed, report it to exploits@arena.net.

yes, ideally one report should do both, but things aren’t currently set up that way so this is what you need to do to get the outcome you want. for more info see this thread:

I don’t think wrong means what you think it means.

Just like players were not in the wrong for exploiting a bug that allowed purchasing thousands of items with karma when it was obvious the prices were bugged?

Intentionally exploiting an issue that is clearly not intended is very much wrong of the player to do. As well you can and will absolutely risk being punished for it. Precedence has proven this.
