Guild Wars 2

When will this be fixed? If ever? Seen it a lot from LOEG tonight in tier two. Everyone says screen and send to Anet but how does that help exactly when names don’t even show? Why won’t they just fix it. It is a cheap exploit, not a tactic. Its all fair if a mesmer hides inside and manages it but dying on gate is really classless.

“Why won’t they just fix it”

we gonna act like anet cares about wvw?

i raised this “rezzing through gate issue before” and Devon said they are looking into it…

yeah it is a normal seen now where you can see a mesmer purposely die near gate, so that their friend can rezz them later, and take the structure (tower/keep/smc) without resistance….

For now this is not exploit. The mechanic itself allow you to res people without line of sight. (Sadly it is used for unproductive battle strategy).

The only thing you can do till the fix is: sit this mesmer with 2 person (better if 1 person is fully berserker gear (warr with 100 hb will take down the rezzer outside), the other has crowd control skill). Beware of thief inside the keep/tower.

Is it really so hard to fix?
Make gate thicker. That’s it. Done.

Watched this happen the other day. We had 2 there trying to counter the res but there was nothing we could really do. (Thief stealthed the gate on top of the mes’s stealth after they were up) By the time we knew where they were a port was already up. I would really like to see this fixed, if not you might as well just remove the walls/gates and just have a lord’s room for each structure.

Thank you for creating this topic, now you can expect an increase in the use of this “exploit”.

Give everyone a skill when they are out of combat, they can pick up a dead body and carry it and throw it over a wall/cliff. No more dead camping. No more spying while dead. No more waiting to find the stealthed thief.

They have talked before abt putting a limit on how long you can stay dead.
