Next

We are aware of the exploit with the Mesmer fall damage trait. This will be corrected in the next hotfix.

Until then, I would refrain from using the trait.

TY for a response but this ^ is not going to happen as long as it exsists the class that is doing it will keep exploiting it and laughing about it. This is not a simple bug, it is extremely game breaking.

edit naming the title of this topic what the exploit is does not help matters

My guess would be that ^ that statement means “we will ban ppl that are exploiting it”. :P

I’d guess that if they meant that they’d have said that. This bug is getting a lot of exposure. They’d have to ban a lot of people.

Edit: To be clear I’m not against banning exploiters, I just think they should be explicit about these things.

this is correct, they need to put out a blanket statement saying that they will punish those that are using the exploit

So what? They did in the beginning for karma weapons. And they make money with those bans.

Bans targetting people that knowingly exploit broken game mechanics are good. I would be more upset if A-net did nothing to punish those that “make the most of the opportunity”. <:

I really hope this is resolved and people who abused it a lot are banned or at least suspended because there are tons of people who are literally running around with upleveled mesmers using it. I told everyone in my guild and I know many others told them not to use the trait or even mesmers because we aren’t going to abuse it.

This!

Anet simply must make a practical statement that activly exploiting this kind of bug will have consequences

Yeah seriously, this isn’t a minor inconvenience, it’s a game changer. I was very disappointed to learn that people from my own server are also abusing it. I hope abusers get punished somehow. If not ban, reset them to level 1 WvW or something like that.

If you guys have read the TOS and accepted it, you would know that if you are using it in your favor over and over it is called a serious exploit, thus means your account can be terminated.

Just saying..

I really hope people get bent for this. WvW is getting lost constantly because everyone on the other side is just getting on their Mesmer and WIPING ZERGGGGSSS of people. like 30-50 people. Darkhaven specifically has multiple mesmers doing it now in our WvW as we speak and there is NO way to kill them. Please fix it quick : /

Well I certainly hope that they’ll at least suspend people using it. Mesmers in WvW are just waiting on top of towers/cliffs and jumping on people.

While this is a serious issue, your comment made me think of this:

This isn’t fun anymore….

What about this:
Include a reason ‘bug-abusing’ in report function and a free text field.

It’s not really free wxp and tokens.. considering 99% of the people in wvw are now camping, or scared to move. What it is, is actually an effective counter to karma trains.

This is EXTREMELY stupid. I’ve died more than like 10 times tonight simply because of this idiocy. We now have ORGANIZED GROUPS OF MESMERS IN WVW doing this to wipe zergs and havoc groups. This is ridiculous.

Tell the truce if YOU have a mesmer wouldnt you at least try it.
There is a line between abusing it constant and just try it

Yust let the people have their fun. The few houers this bug is online wont be gamebreaking.

considering that 1 mesmer can successfully hold off an entire group assaulting a tower and kill them all repeatedly yes its free xp and tokens

No If you exploit a bug like this you should be BANED or Have your WVW rank reset
go play a different game if you like to cheat.

I have a mesmer. In fact, I have 2. Both at lvl 80.

No. I would not even try this. I don’t have the trait on either one of my mesmers and have not even thought of speccing it even to drop down on top of a critter.
