Guild Wars 2

I just ran into two JQ hackers at different times today.

one was a necro one was a guardian

they just kept blinking/teleporting short distances away from me like 400-600 range each time continuously.

does this actually happen in PvP or PvE?

No point in doing it in PvE.
Not allowed in sPvP thx to close monitoring.

It happens in WvW now regularly coz it’s the only part of the game no one from Anet is actually spending time on.

why the report category doesn’t have hacking/exploit? there’s a Mithril rank hacker in [Ring of fire] using super speed in WvW right now.

Doesn’t necro have a teleport ability? I can’t remember, but seem to recall one has a “recall to point” thingy …

Flesh Wurm: Reactivate to teleport back to it.

Guardians also have meditations.

I didn’t see what OP saw so I can’t discredit him for it, but there are a few hackers in WvW.

Seen many hackers in pve as well, but since that is not really effecting anyone in person or server wise, or in any way fixing scores, i tend to not care that much unless they are messing up my game. Then i might report them. In wvw it becomes more obviouse and more infected since it is game breaking, and can change scores.

it wasnt a single cast blink/teleport

it was a continuous zero cooldown blinking away from me.

One minute I was attacking him, next minute he had blinked a few times and went far enough from me to be out of combat.

and he just stood there and looked at me, I chased and he just blinked a few times away from me again. zero cool down blinking -_-

There’s not much point aside from botting in PvE. You might see it a bit more if any of the PvE in this game was even slightly difficult.

To know that you just looking on some skills or exploits/hacks, you first need to know what just happened – its a class skill or exploit? (so usualy you need know classes/skills and their cooldowns).

With some help may come this link on gw2 wiki:

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Exploit

If you sure that this is exploit/hacking make some screens, video , get player name (target him, block – he will be in blocked players now, after this you can try invite him to party for more evidence ) , and send all evidence with time and server where this happened to anet (exploits@arena.net).

If there is enough evidences they usualy ban them fast

Good luck on Hunting

Interesting thread, since I myself met some engi in WvW about week ago, who kept blinking and going invisible when he was going low… he was granadier and couldn’t do much to me, so just kept kitting me all over the ruins with that bs, it felt exactly the same like I was fighting mesmer… except there was no illusions.

Well, this much is true.

I am not sure how we got almost 3 years into this game without an “exploit” reason to report someone. I think it’d be a good idea to at least acknowledge that hacking is bad.

Oh I think I know why that was never implemented. Remember when Maguuma figured out if five people reported one player for botting it would result in an insta-ban — then the player would have to file a ticket to reactivate the account?

War Machine. Ring any bells?

They should really hire Maguuma as Antisec for GW2 testing. These guys find all the loopholes.

Wonder if someone is able to explain how sfr can get straight into lord room at their home border hills without breaking gates or walls?? Theres about 100 trebs alone with countless other siege with bunch ppl guarding 24/7, yet they somehow find a way trough. Luckily they still fail miserably.

Same thing just happened in Desolation Bay keep. My thread was swiftly deleted though as will probably be the case with this one. An SFR upscaled guardian hacked their way into a keep we’ve held for 2 days and then disappeared under the lake bed.

I’ve heard rumors that’s how FSP garrison and our Longview tower were taken also, but I wasn’t there to witness it, this one I’ve seen with my own eyes and already reported them via the ticketing system, if that has any effect at all.

Well it’s probably good time to hack. Lot’s of objectives to cap and you guys seems to get mad about it. That dude probably laughing his kitten off in home. SFR community (do we have community?) disapprove hacking of course. FSP players can stay their high horse because they never got hackers right?

How did that hacker manage to move servers when SFR is full?

I’m guessing he got bored of hacking for FSP and opened a new account choosing SFR as homeworld…

And yes, this thread will be deleted pretty fast, seems the mods are in delete mode again.

I want to know why the admin logs are not flagging all this…engines over 10 years old managed…

Before Megaservers and when the bots were prolific, they used hacks all the time to teleport all over the map to collect materials automatically, because the nodes only moved on reset, they could farm every node on an entire map in like 1 minute.

Often they seem to use an exploit for a Mesmer to glitch through gates, I have seen this happen personally. The Mes then ports any other team members in. It actually used to be worse than it is now, at one point enemies could easily glitch through gates by accident. I saw several run up the stairs in a tower and jump out again just to return to hitting the gate.

Then there have been many instance of zergs taking a place and leaving, no guards, no siege, no upgrades and most of all no Mesmer sweeps. Under that situation a single mesmer hiding can portal in a whole zerg.

The stupid increases to invisibility haven’t helped defenders here either.
