Guild Wars 2

How can we report players suspected of hacks in WvW?

Today I tried to report a group of players that I suspect of using hacks to enhance their skills but I could not find any way of doing so. I click on the character and choose report but there is no option to describe the events or request ANet personnel to observe the suspicious activity. Is there a normal procedure to deal with this situation?

the recommended action is to report for botting.

You can try to report for botting, but the report system seems to be automated so unless loads of people report in a small timeframe or you manage to have your post get attention on the official forums (i.e. reddit) nothing will happen to the offenders.

i one thought of creating a thread here called wall of shame
so everyone can post vids there for their hacking sightings
….but hackers get violent reaction so i didnt created that thread lol

You can not post anything about hacking in forum, mods will remove it. Use report botting in game, record the video and post in in youtube and reddit.

Send an email with details to:
exploits@arena.net

Many reports are false, either on purpose cos the reporting player is seeing too much red, or he has no clue what he just saw. Anet should ban confirmed hackers and also anyone who reports everyone left and right. The latter would add plenty of names to your wall of shame.

The last time the game didn’t update the location of a downed body, I ran back to where I got him downed first and spammed aa. Worked like a charm despite my gw2 client showing the invul icon on. Perhaps what you have on your vid is something different but it does look like what I saw in wvw couple of times.

That’s actually common, if you watch closely you jump down it looks to you like you knocked him away but the server didn’t register that. The reality is that he is actually still back at the wall where you jumped down but your client is showing him in a different spot, if you had cleaved back at the wall he would have died. This is evidenced in the video when they rez him and he appears back at the wall not where your screen shows him.
