Deadeye shoots through walls

its just 35k damage in one shot, that goes thru walls. dw about it. seems chill

it only 100-0s everything without an auto invun. seems fair. seems balanced. swag

That's not them shooting through walls i think. I tested something with some friends last night on deadeye and we ran into a bug where kneeling while already in stealth and then porting away and shooting would cause a rendering bug where the game registered you as being somewhere else and the enemy would only see the location you were at previously. The bug was fixed once they moved and it happened a ton. I think this is what you were experiencing because in the first vid you can see the thief port from up on the platform to the far corner behind you once you've started running away. Animations would play the same way and bullets would look like they traveled through walls.

The other enemy thief (from this guy's perspective) is my real location because we just did a small scale showing of this but it can stretch pretty far.

I won't trigger the auto invuln since they require you to be hit while below the threshold but at 30k in a single hit it just by-passes the lower half of the health bar.

This! So much this! For some reason I've also had guardians 'dying' and rendering in different spots. Its something to do with teleporting skills.

I've had someone complain about me stomping them from miles away yesterday. Today I had a few matches where people were trying to stomp me from like 1200 range and the stomp wouldnt work. Similarly I've had stomps not work for me a few times lately as well.

What @Ario.8964 said. It's a desync issue. The same issue as when downed players are unable to be stomped or rez'd. It happens far more often when a player uses a teleport and does not actually move afterwards.

Thieves had always done this, but it was far less noticeable considering how mobile they had to be to stay alive or deal damage, whereas now they would rather stand still for a few seconds.

They don't want to stand around they kinda have to stay kneeled for deaths judgement to be available.

Check my post about the bug, its easily abused and needs attention

Noticed the same last night in WvW.People from my own server or enemys would desync alot when they went down.

there are 2 separate bugs at work here:1) Deadeye teleporting after kneeling causing rendering bug2) Desync issues that have plagued the game since the PoF - stomping, shooting though walls/not being able to shoot ppl that seem in range etc

3) Scourge

I was dueling a Deadeye with Weaver earlier and this happened a lot. He was definitely in front of me, but Polaric Leap would port me to where he was previously (in the opposite direction). He used Shadowstep/Shadow Return while crouched and this happened, but not consistently.
