Sorry I didn’t report this sooner, but I saw a map exploit on Friday/Saturday when defending our borderlands’ Garrison keep, where a mixed group of players managed to pass by the gate on the Southeast side directly behind where I was standing.

It happened so fast I couldn’t get any screenshots, but suffice to say I had my back turned toward the water, with sheer cliffs and the wall supposedly blocking any passage, and a group of what appeared to be a mixture of professions (possibly wrong, as again it happened so fast) came out of nowhere behind me.

Two possible explanations I can think of, which might help when debugging:

  1. Map exploit where somehow they climbed up the various rocks between gate and water.
  2. They had a dead body still there from a previous attempt (gate had been fully repaired shortly afterwards) which they might have somehow been able to teleport to (I have no clue how… perhaps a consumable?). This seems much less likely, since I was actually facing that dead body of theirs, and they came from behind me.

I’m dead certain they hadn’t broken the gate, they were not invisible, and in fact I was defending from a small attack which I was facing, but that it seemed a different group snuck up from the water/cliff side. Is it possible they might have teleported directly up from under, like the elementalist’s air bubble glitch?

We are such flecks as stars are made of. . .

There’s an issue where players can enter the garrison keep without breaking the first gate so it was probably that. Having said that it’s also possible that either a mesmer was hiding inside the keep unknown to the defenders or a teleport hack was used.
