wadecounty Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Start capping, phasewalk while capping, you will continue to cap even tho you're not in the area for people to stop cap. Is this getting fixed soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this getting fixed soon? Thanks for the heads up can't wait to test this out! Sorcs grow more and more powerful by the day! Now we can phasewalk-cap stuff and not even be on the cap! WOOHOO!!!!!

Sayir Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Well that would certainly explain some of the random caps I've seen lately... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kissingaiur Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Welp looks like we just gotta remove Phasewalk now since its messing up OBJ Kappa I'm sure everyone is going to be heartbroken but It just has to be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erevan_Kindelar Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Phasewalk has its place (incredibly annoying though it is, for the classes that don't have it), but at the very least if Phasewalk is used that should stop the cap. I am just guessing, but I would assume that the devs did not consider that particular side-effect when they introduced Phasewalk. After all, they wouldn't think about it and leave it in, unless they were trying to make Sage/Sorc OP enough to earn the kind of nerf-batting that I normally have to pay a Dominatrix for, would they?

Fellow-Canadian Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Well I guess we will find out if Bioware reads the PVP forums or not LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleConehead Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 I use phase walk in hypergate and a few others on my shadow to get to points quickly. I've also gotten out to a pylon in hypergate before I could actually click the pylon itself. Is it an "exploit"? Only to those that don't have it as an ability. If you want to get rid of it in pvp then let's get rid of the commando/merc backwards movement ability and the outward push that slinger/snipers and merc/commandos have. All about knowing the class that you are playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All about knowing the class that you are playing. That's not the point. What you're explaining is intelligent use of Phasewalk, but what is broken from what I've read is that you can put your phasewalk 60m away from the cap in somewhere hidden, go to the cap, start capping, phasewalk away and continue capping while your opponents are looking for you while you cap. This is not fair. And I say that as someone maining both a sin and a shadow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleConehead Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Seems like I msiread part of it then; thanks for the clarification. Seems like quite a few bugs still out there after four years, like being able to cap while taking damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lhancelot Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Too bad you can't plant bombs in VS with PW too. That would be fun. Or, cap nodes in civil war with PW, the PW fun should be limitless! Just like sorc powah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anzel Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 This is going on like crazy tonight. Just saw someone cap from like 60m away. It's a super obvious exploit. What's going on here? This is really a bunch of crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FourPawnBenoni Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 This is actually not new...been around for quite a while....but it's pvp so the ETA of fix is probably late 2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COOKIESNOMNOMNOM Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 (edited) I understand that we should nerf OPeratives after reading this thread. Thank you. I will spread the word right away.

Anzel Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 So I reported this, took screen shots, etc. Even PMd Eric but I'm sure nobody will even acknowledge it. Notice how there are never any Cartel Coin hacks though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterFeign Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 The funny thing about this particular bug is it seems that part of the reason why it's possible to do this, is because phasewalk doesn't make you disappear from the spot you were just in, and reappear in another, it just shift you very fast. So, no LoS occurs. Take for example, a sorc is using force lightning on you, and you have your phasewalk planted near them, still in their full view. When you use it, their force lightning attack will go uninterrupted and they will auto rotate in your direction. So if they do fix the capping issue, they'd also make non-LoS phasewalks more useful as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anzel Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 This is one of three terrible exploits/hacks going on right now. I wonder if the CC system was broken whether or not they would address it. Because they are totally ignoring this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL someone is super anti sorc never going to happen they will need to make it where once you phasewalk youll just stop channeling its an easy fix (maybe not for bioware). But with them being so busy(making next chapter) i doubt they will fix it fast enough we will just have to wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
