Guild Wars 2

This needs testing.

A Ranger in wvw managed to do this to me multiple times.

The moment I went invisible he ran backwards at a 45’ angle. I am able to get behind him, and all my backstabs miss. I stand still and when he gets near they all miss. I attack from the front and the backstabs still miss.

He wasn’t attacking.

This needs testing and if it is a problem fix asap. If it is a latency issue then all tests to try redo this will fail and we will know.

Try to make a video of this.

I can’t be bothered to be perfectly honest. So now I have made it common knowledge I am sure someone will test.

Then we can’t be bothered with your nonsense.

Basically this. If you’re too lazy to test why should we make the effort to do it for you.

You were probably being blinded or something, L2P.

Sound harsh? Good, go test it AND post proof so we actually have more to go off of than your word describing a ridiculous situation.

This thread made me, lol. I don’t like backstab thief style anyway, so I hope it is true. Don’t worry, Anet will surely fix the bug within 6 months.

Not a hack…Its called poor design.

No way, you are using capitals in title!

Did that ranger won you?
Was it once?

i have encountered this several times, i think this is skill lag or normal lag even sometimes steal i dont see any damage done when even it is traited. but still there are alot of possibilities.

BS is still OP even with the “miss” bugs !

what do you mean by “miss” ??

You did not land it , even from the front ?
Perhaps you had blind on you – bc this is normally when i see a “miss” on my screen ?

Wolfield.9812:

…he ran backwards at a 45’ angle.

He just went out of reach. He will be way up there while you’re way down there. In GW1, your attack might connect to someone at top/below you, but not in GW2.

This is a bug introduced in Factions and if rumors are to be believed, this might be a sign that we are going back to Cantha. That way, we can all reminisce all the bugs that Factions had brought us — including your “45’ angle” bug.
