Guild Wars 2

How can this arrow cart shoot 10 meter inside our keep, destroying our catapults and other siege?

How can they aim and look inside?

how can you set AoE on to the walls? same thing.
for the catapult behind the gate, just move your camera, works with ele as well.

He doesnt shoot 1 or 2 meters.. he really did shot 10 meters inside.. cant show the red circles cause i died making that screen :P

Hope this will be fixed in the next patch too. No more enemy camera’s in our keeps please!

dw i have screenshot of viz shooting our siege weapons of inner bay earlier today in Elona BL……… viz viz viz, i have nothing to say to you guys anymore.

oh, u have no idea how vs plays wh?
they use camera zoom for starters, the above shows it more clearly.

So you think its fine they can zoom into our keep? Hope this gets removed from WvW.

And ty for the screens Anatolian! Mine shows the AC shooting it.

O M G

Are you guys serious? I suggest you learn tp play the game before openly accusing servers of hacking when your proof material screenies only show 100% legit arrow carts shooting nowhere they cannot reach or see.

All you guys show in these screenies is 100% legit.

I am not from VS either sorry,but people should really start to know their facts better before posting such terribly dissinfromed accusations.

graverr, maybe thats what im trying to do.. i am asking why it can shoot 10 meter past our gate and im accusing nobody.

I dont agree on that the enemy can use their camera to look into our keep.

you got a hole over the gate, if you look into that you can target inside, quite simple really.

Arrows from Arrow carts arc over walls.(or through ceilings, there is a hint in there for you)

If you are near the gate you can do that, they are not near the gate, you can’t target the floor of the courtyard from way back there unless you “magically” have a different FOV to everybody else.

Does it matter? If they get in you can always kill them until you need to sleep.

Yea on my 1st screen i showed the AC shooting far inside the keep. I think the ppl saying that its normal need to learn 2 play.

your pictures didnt show the arrowcart, and as such how am i to know?

its a well used tactic in EB to take out siege inside the gate, but if the ac is as far back as you said then yes, probably the zoom hack again. nothing new really

Yeah, that seems a bit too far for an AC to be firing. From the boardwalk to inside the keep that they can’t even see from that area? idk guyz. lol

Where is the arrow cart on the first screen ?
I can’t see it, so i assume he’s packed with the invaders. I grabbed my ele and did some tests from this position. I can easily reach the inside of the keep.. Look at my AoE on the top left.

You can even go more far if you remove your interface (ctrl+maj+h) since you will not be annoyed by party/buttons/..

Sorry for my bad screen, but i had to make it fast… the siege icon over the enemy’s head, thats where the AC is.. so on the wooden boards not on the concrete.

well if you look at the first pick you can see the gear over the arrow cart that is being used, also see the red arrow above his head from being target by OP. you will notice it is down the ramp a bit, just on the edge of the dock. with it being down the ramp i don’t think there would be anyway to get a LOS inside the keep from there.

I would have to come to the conclusion that maybe there was another AC closer to the gate. maybe mixed in with the rams? however we do not have any screen shots of the out side of the gate so no way to be sure.

aah missed that screen, yea thats NO WAY it could hit inside :P

Some people say you can aim through the gap above the gate. I havent been able to do this expect with chucking a boulder through it with a cat.

And the other is gzoom i think it’s called. It’s an addon people are using, but of course addons are not allowed in GW2 and so it’s a hack.
Yet Anet have not been bothered to patch it yet I think, along with some of the more serious bugs; like when are orbs going to return to WvW?

Zoom hack increases the FoV, not the effective range. There was another arrow cart, in the zerg or against the door.

You’re not at the center of the AoE showed in the screen (about the middle from where you are to the gate). I was wondering about the range too, but it looks like the AoE are exactly at the max range of an arrow cart positionned like in the first screen.

The only way to be sure is to try with a broken gate.

I did a 1 minute search on google with stuff like that and found that there is already a multi hack for this game…… wtf…

And that does.

• Autoexplore Vistas (with syncless teleport)
• Autoexplorer Works from everywhere in the map

• No Clipping (Walk trough walls)
• Wallwalk (Walk up walls)
• Zoomhack (Min and Max, allows 1st person)
• Deposit and Withdraw gold from EVERYWHERE
• Speedhack (movementspeed)
• Strafespeed (walk faster sidewards)
• Field of View hack
• Flyhack (Up and Down, even mid-air)

So i guess this happends on a large scale already.

If a Anet employee wants the website you can PM me.

Delete my post if its bad, but im just letting ppl know.. really took me 1 min.

As has been pointed out by Qwixx, the zoom hack increases field of view, not the range of the AC or any ground targeted ability for that matter.
This basically means, if your field of view prevented you from looking over a wall to an area that in fact IS in range of, for example your arrow cart, with the zoom hack, you can look over the wall and hit the ground on the other side of the wall with the ACs abilities. With the zoom hack, you can not however, hit an area that has been out of range without the zoom hack, in a way that the distance to the target area is simply to far away.

So the original screenshot leads to two conclusions:
1. the arrow cart pictured (provided there is an AC, it could be anything that produces a siege icon above you really), has been build to take out defenses on the wall of the attacked keep, and/or was an AC misdirection build. Following the thought of a misdirection build, one can assume that the real arrow cart is standing close to the gate and is taking out your defensive siege inside, the ‘normal’ way.

So you may have simply been outplayed.

2. There is a mechanic in place that enhances the range of the AC. This plus the zoom hack would enable you to hit inside the keep.

Concerning the screenshots from Anatolian Turk: There could very well be an AC close to the gate in that situation as well. One player stating “The AC isn’t even close to the gate” doesn’t prove anything. Anyone can make screenshots like this. No offense meant, Anatolian Turk. If you checked in front of the gate, you of course know better than me or the people reading this thread, but we have nothing except your word for it, and people should be aware of this.

It is easy to overlook things during heated gameplay and there might or might not have been exploits being used, but from the screenshots one can’t conclude that there definitely have been dodgy things going on.

Pan stop making perfect sense or i’m telling Penetras ^^

yup and there is a new hack out there that can port entire groups of enemies into randowm location, so if the hacker wants to port u out of a tower your in, he will just port u right in the middle of them to kill u.(ever wondered why u are all of the sudden stuck in a wall?u didnt fall or use an ability and u were just there?Welcome to the newest hack) They also have a radar hack to monitor enemy movements, their class, health and stats…and there is actually multiple websites like that. I don’t know what anet can do about it though at this point. It would be cool if we had a chance to get a counter software from anet that monitors and blocks hacks…but thats just wishful thinking…..

I bet you that there was just a cart built right at the corner of the gate that they didn’t even look for.

Please take such multi hack claims with a grain of salt. Most of the time they only have a single function, and that is to steal you account data.

About the arrow carts: You can resize your client in windowed mode to get an absurd FoV.

Both pictures were taken at the same spot, the camera was not moved.

WOW, i didn’t know this trick with the windowed mode for a incredible FoV. Ok, with this, even if the arrow cart in the screen of the first post is where the engine wheel is… WE CAN TARGET INSIDE THE KEEP.

If you don’t see well on the screen, i’m even closer from the water than on the screen of the first post and i clearly see (and can target) the inside of the keep.

It’s gonna be very hard to know if someone is using a hack or is just using the windowed mode..

it could be this yea.. maybe! Lets hope so, and that hacks are not in this game.

Hope this will catch the attention of the A net dev’s.

And PS.

For those ppl that said ’Learn to play etc."

U learn 2 play wot bam

are you kidding me? there was no arrow carts near the gate…well what you said doesnt make sense what so ever. for 15 mins, Viz were hitting our siege weapons inside the inner gate from the platform next to the water. Plus, if Viz were using an arrow cart outside the inner gate it would have been destroyed from us in matter of seconds.

Yep, thats why i ran up to the walls… and made the screen of wich AC was hitting the gate.. and im 100% sure there was no other AC hitting it. Or else i wouldnt even care to make this post.

EDIT: And i dont even know the person that showed the proof on inner side. It was just luck that someone made screens too.

There is no hacking going on.

1. Place AC right up to the gate.
2. Shift camera to see inside.
3. Kill all things.

It’s the counter to the catapults that are fire against gates to knock back ram users and kill them.

I feel like it’s a bit of a cheese, but there is nothing wrong with it. Set cats out of line of sight and as far back as you can or higher up out of the way places. Catapults still work if backed up against the wall (and appearing like they are halfway into the wall).

Couple of things, 1) test whether or not you can hit there, build an AC in the same place in Bay when you own it. The AC unlike other siege (and most AoE) doesn’t need to have Line of Sight. 2) Camera Tool exploit this has been discussed before 3) regarding exploits: posting exploits on the forum is not permitted as the forum moderation team does not investigate those issues. That’s why exploits have to be sent to the following address: exploits@arena.net or to our Customer Support Team as explained above. Reports of exploits sent by either of these two methods reach the correct people who can then investigate.. Include screenshots from you test and the incident.

I also want to add that I recently started using “eyefinity” to spread gw2 across 3 monitors and get 5760×1080 resolution. With some tweaks, I can get absurdly wide FOV, and it’s actually quite impressive in size too. So, I’m gonna side with those that say this is not a hack. But, I’ll do some testing on bay gate using my set up tomorrow to confirm if it’s possible to target inside that keep.

For the topic, those questions are for map/team chat, private forums, and for Anet. When you start a topic on hacks, people become keen on searching for hacks and programs. Anet is already aware majority of hack/bot programs and posting them on public forums increases the population towards those programs. People listing hack program details peaks members interest and they either ignore it or use it thus getting banned because of it.

You see your posts are making people aware of such programs and about 33% will use it thus increasing the hack programs population. The other 33% will get caught and banned because of curiosity and temptation. Anet already explained in the Forums TOS that anything related to hacking/botting needs to be brought to there attention, not the entire GW2 Populace, causing more harm than you thought.

If you catch people cheating/botting/hacking send videos/images to ANET.

Also that reply about the details of such programs will be removed by a moderator I guarantee it.
