Q:

ONLY PRETAINS TO WVW

So I am trying to determine what is exactly going on.

I have noticed that I have been missing ALOT with Prybar after Magnet Pull.
I used to land the hits almost everytime without much thought but even when they enemy is right infront of me I get a big MISS over 75% of the time.

So is anyone else having this problem?

I am thinking it is most likely the increase in lag from culling being removed so the enemies are maybe not exactly where they appear to be.
I have tried using other ranged skills right after pull and they never seem to miss.
Either way it is really annoying to have such a powerful skill whiff so often especially since Magnet Pull is unreliable at best to pull ppl all the way to you unless you are on completely flat ground.

Yeah magnetic pull has been glitching for me allot, it sometimes only ‘pulls’ the person half way too me, yet when the enemy moves after the mild CC they are right in front of me.

It’s annoying as kitten.

I have this issue sometimes as well. I don’t know if it is lag, a bug some people can exploit, or just some glitch.

It’s a glitch cause by lagg on the enemy’s side lol , it’s been happening a lot to me as well

(you can tell someone is laggin cause they don’t walk, they shadow step eveywhere! it’s not different from a pull, they lagg at some point, disappear and randomly appear where they shoulda been)
also
only happens with other players and not PVE mobs

btw: fun fact, a while back someone exploited this by randomly appearing inside of keeps, and lately some warrior in sPvP, has been using it to freely teleport anywhere on the map

I’ve noticed this too.

Like anything else, don’t expect a fix just try to cope with it.

Ugh, makes me wonder what could be done if one was to artificially introduce lag somehow…
