Guild Wars 2

Sanctum is cheating to keep supply camps by having a hacker hide “within” a wall so they can’t be hit, thus keeping the camp from being turned. Multiple people just saw it at Bluevale Refuge, 11:40pm EST.

Great work Sanctum, keep cheating.

Yea, was a lovely tactic. They’ve done it twice now tonight.

They have done this to every server they play.

I am sure you mean ONE player, lol. Please report that person and tell us who it is. I hate cheaters.

Bull.

The old guy guild has thiefs that are speed hacking, getting knocked down to a few HP then becoming invulnerable, hitting for 6k – want to talk hacks start there

Guild please? Pictures, v ideo?

Thieves hitting for 6k is nothing new. You got backstabbed.

There are hackers on every server. Provide us with some proof of who it is and we’ll report them. We hate cheaters too.

this is obviously a server wide plot!

I’m just reporting what happened. Snarky comments aside, the guy was literally inside a wall, holding the camp. It happened.

I am sure it did.

If we see a hacker we report them ourselves. Like everyone else has been saying give us details so we can get rid of him.

How do you know he wasn’t stuck in the wall? Or any other dumb glitch.

If you think someone is cheating screenshot it, and send it to Anet. You’re just flamebating, posting stuff like this here.

@Silicate – my toon has been caught inside parts of structures several times due to bugs in the game. In all cases I could not get out without porting. Its possible that happened here.

Likewise – we faced the same thing tonight in wvwvw by Yak’s players on at least 2 occassions, preventing us from capping supply depots till we figured out what was going on.

Hacking – EVERY SERVER HAS HACKERS. I’ll point out that 90% of hacker complaints have included the word ‘thief’ in them. Thieves are overpowered right now, and it has little to nothing to do with the class. Here’s the deal. Stealth causes the character to go invisible, obviously. I know little about the specifics of a thief, but let’s say stealth lasts 4 seconds and they can do it every 8 seconds. Just throwing out a number, no corrections necessary. They pop stealth, and then it expires after 4 seconds. But then, you have to load that character. Character culling in even the slightest form will cause that to take 2-4 seconds. Suddenly, you never loaded them and they’re back in stealth. Add this with a teleport skill, and you’ve got what appears to be a hacker, when in fact, it’s just character culling at its absolute worst.

As for the guy in the wall, seen this so many times in every fight that it’s ridiculous. Report them and move on. Reporting DOES work, so many people have been banned from every server for these exploits. Get a target on them, right-click them, hit Report. Then, copy their name and send a manual report explaining the actual situation, including their name, location at the time, and a detailed description of what happened. Flavor text about how they hurt your feelings and/or kitten is unnecessary.

There is no question that supply camp wall-glitching to make the character invulnerable, thereby making the Supply Camp invulnerable is an intentional move. If I ever glitch in a stuck location, I will immediately report with /stuck command and relog for character reset. That’s what any normal player would do. Who wants to play their game stuck in wall, after all?

While I’ve not personally seen it, I have heard folks saying that SOME SoR players have been doing this for weeks, in previous match-ups. So it’s nothing new.

But SoR as a server is no doubt, a strong server. In a fair match-up, with no cheating at all, they can be a formidable server. However, SoR has a few guilds that cannot accept trailing by a large margin. This message is NOT directed to the SoR server as a whole, or the majority of its population. It is discussing what a few guilds will do.

Once SoR scores start falling far enough behind, you start seeing weird stuff like that happen. You will seldom (or even never) see any cheating from any SoR players if they are in the lead or trailing by a small margin. Because they can fight they’re way back to #1 fairly, with a very heavy hammer.

BUT, once they start to fall more than 10K points behind in total scores, that is when you will start to notice specific guilds turn their hack programs (like Mustang) on. You will fight large zergs where half the players (consisting of one or two renowned guilds) will have super-human powers and abilities.

I know this post will incite a lot of anger from SoR players and I’ll get flamed for it until this thread gets deleted. But I’m just calling it how it is and warning SoR’s current opponents, especially Yaks who has a good lead right now, to be on the lookout for that stuff. Sometimes its very subtle and sometimes you will just be slapping your forehead, asking yourself, “How was that possible?!”

Pics? Videos? So we can find out who it is or if it is happening?

Thank you.

Also keep in mind before calling “hacks” that sometimes its a glitch in Anet’s end. Last night SoR saw a YB ele hitting a treb. But the ele was going invisible and reappearing with no one else around.

The SoR member called Hack on the YB invader, but when he asked if I could see about hitting the treb spot, he noticed I too went invisible. So we found out the Ele from YB wasn’t hacking, but the “bushes” in that part of the terrain caused the player to disappear. (And then we reported it.)
