Guild Wars 2

I encountered a player in WvW where there was a zerg fight and we won and so you chase the squirrels. So I was chasing this guy near blood lust ruins and we had a good 1v1 and I downed the player. From what I see on my end I see the player running in the same spot but is definitely in a downed state. so i’m attacking pressing 1111 but not doing any damage and F to finish but it wouldn’t work. I see his health recovering and he managed to escape get up get up from a different spot where I downed the player. It wasn’t far but I dismissed it as maybe the player lagged not long ago. Then it happened with a few players when i’m roaming. I wish i took a screenshot or recording.

Anyway it got me thinking since the same thing happened in PVP with some players. All happened yesterday. Anyone come across this? I wasn’t lagging.

overall i saw about 5 players with this exact behavior throught my marathon sessions of GW2. I’d hate to say hacks but next time I encounter this I will screenshot,

I saw something like this happen in Bloodstone Fen…there was a downed played and I went to revive them. They ran away, but were still downed. They ran into a wall for a few seconds and then disappeared, figured it was just a DC
This was also yesterday.

It’s a known bug. There’s a large thread in the bug forums about this. No it is not anyone cheating in any way
