So im in a tower in eotm—-someone had already set up some ac inside the tower by the steps. Along comes a zerg aaaannnnd—-they are firing ac so deep into the tower that its covering the entire steps down. Which should in theory be imposable because there is no line of sight for that. I certainly coudn’t return any fire as there was zero line of sight for myself.

Any thoughts as to whats going on here? I have some suspicions>>.

There are no glitches in wvw and anyone who says there might be glitches, zoom hacks, bugs, bots, people under the floors/walking through walls will have their posts removed and get infracted. So obviously what you just saw didn’t happen. /sarcasm

The LoS restriction is fore sure NOT head of user target been hit.

It is somewhere between your head and camera position to the point on which you click but as ACs have a large AOE (even larger with mastery) it hits a lot of places you cannot see.

This is good for you, hiding on stairs and still be able to shoot, but also good for an attacking AC. You have to experiment a bit to find a good place for a defending AC.

Be also aware that there are also skills like Ele-scepter 2 or necro death shroud 2 that can hit you without any LoS restriction.

Ceterum censeo SFR esse delendam!

ACs don’t require the same line of sight as most sieges do… You can hit through gates and walls as long you can click to shoot.

Probably not, I tried today. I was at Lake tower and I have built one AC a little to left from gate. I was not able to hit normally I needed Line of sight. So I was hitting just half of gate.
