Neutra.6857 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Can anyone tell me if the range for which South East Tower on the Alpine Borderlands detects enemies is bigger then it used to be? I was on the bridge nearby and it was detecting me. (No this was not a sentry, there was no sentry nearby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawdler.8521 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 The balloon has always easily reached the bridge and I believe that the range of them is roughly 200km, give or take an atmosphere or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justine.6351 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Bridge for hills or monument? It shouldn't be marking you on hills bridge I don't think as you are "supposed" to be able to sneak under that bridge to attack camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can, check under it and see if you are marked traveling under that bridge to get into the camp. If it marks down there at all it has been changed as not even the sentry will mark a player down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neutra.6857 Posted February 19, 2018 Author Share Posted February 19, 2018 I'm not in game anymore so I will check that later. When I hugged the wall closest to Hills under the bridge I wasn't marked but I was closer to the other side of the Hills Bridge when I was marked.

When entering camp from water, just stick left, has been in place for some time. The SET watchtower has always done some serious control and it feels good as a watch tower, unless it isn't yours!

Strider Pj.2193 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 NET on alpine was adjusted several months back as you could not go up the switchback without being marked. Now if you hug the edge, you can be missed. NWT though.... you need to travel skrittland to avoid it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At first glance you might say it's the same distance as Set to hills bridge but if you consider the nearest points as if standing in the tower, the old Net watchtower was like 50% further reaching. It felt more arbitrary due to its height. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It felt more arbitrary due to its height.The first and last time something got changed as a result of a thread I started :). SET seems same as always though, allowing you to go under the bridge arch closest to Hills to escape both the sentry and WT.If anything about that area needs to change though, I'd argue it would be the glide parameters for Hills, both North and South, owning the keep should have more weight than owning those camps, same with North Fire, just a tad more distance for both.
