That's a spicy take and I like it. For obvious reasons I hope not, but spicy nonetheless. Quote but tbh I’m not saying that I believe someone did do it on purpose- I just cannot see how a stealth attack would cause something like the code jumping out of a loop an into an error spot that makes people dc. There doesn't need to be any specific issue with logic loops for a specific type of attack to cause a player to disconnect. many instances of these run at a time, and any interaction with them being handled improperly (even if the logic loops themselves are fine) can cause unexpected behavior. When an attack lands there are several behaviors (like rendering the player, handling the damage and its modifiers, its direction, combat logging), many of which are invisible to a user (data associated with whether the attack came from stealth or not and, if so, if any modifiers needed to be applied) that could just fail to be handled or handled improperly. If there's any mechanism that is monitoring (or not monitoring properly) for these interactions, disconnection of the client is one of the easiest ways to prevent any major issues that may crop up. That may not be preferable, but it could just be a response to another type of issue being caught.

Just figured out I can DC 2 or 3 people from their spawn right before a match starts if I stealth with smokescale and then barrage them. It's like anyone that barrage hits, has a chance to DC. It's super dirty if you wait to do it right before it says "the match is about to begin". This needs to be fixed ASAP. This sounds like late caching not doing it's job by the looks of it. As a funny reminder. Some ranger pets don't even have Jade Wind/RotGD textures either. Turning them invisible with the effect. Much of the transparency also breaks with Necro Shades lmfao. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedAvenged.5217 Posted February 8, 2023 Author Share Posted February 8, 2023 39 minutes ago, Sahne.6950 said: Buffing a certain skill doesnt automatically mean that they are buffing the sustain of a whole profession. Your playing alot of s/d thief right? heres an example to demonstrate what im talking about. Ele patchnotes: -soothing disrupt no longer reduces cooldown of cantrips (like Armor of Earth is one) Armor of Earth: This skill now grants barrier for each unique boon on the user in addition to its other effects. Reduced duration from 6 seconds to 4 seconds in PvP only. Reduced cooldown from 60 seconds to 40 seconds in PvP only. Forum: "they are buffing ele sustain!!! What are they doing!"😡 And now i translate it to thief, so you understand what those patchnotes actually mean for the elementalist profession as a whole Thief patchnotes: -Trickery no longer reduces cooldown of tricks. https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Haste This skill now gives 4 seconds of swiftness (instead of 6) and it grants 2,5 seconds of quickness (instead of 4) also it grants you 150 barrier for every unique boon on you. Cooldown decreased from 45 to 40 seconds. Both of those are not a buff to their respective class, in the sense of making it have more sustain. As both of these skills werent used in any build at all. They are trying to bring long forgotten skills up to the level that other skills are sitting at, so they can compete with the current options, which alot of them are wayy more obnoxious than the skills that recently received a "buff", for example Earthshield on ele, and roll for initiative or even shadowstep for your s/d thief. BUT... neither "Haste" nor "Armor of Earth" will be able to compete with the current options. So while they are indeed buffing a certain skill, it still wont be picked over, for example, Earthshield. Looking at the other sustainnerfs that are coming to catalyst..... its a joke to say "they are buffing Elementalist sustain", because its simply not true. They are reworking Cantrips as a whole! The same way that they are reworking Tricks currently. but are they buffing tricks with this? are they buffing thief with this? But the Forumcrowd, who got bullied by Cata for the last few months, just sees that there is a cooldown number decreasing for the elementalist profession and is instantly raising their pitchforks. (not even gonna bother to explain why the staff buffs are 100% irrelevant for pvp.... WvW on the other hand...) I understand what you mean, but you hurt yourself claiming no one used Trickster. Trickster has always been one of the best skills on thief, many thief’s purposely take it and it’s even been meta. these situations come when the devs are completely ignorant of the class. but hey I’m fine with a trickster buff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IAmDarthMole.4159 Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Three of our team members were just DCed in a ranked pvp match after the other team rushed into base. That's how I found out about this bug and thread. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phokus.8934 Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 And here's part of the issue with skill splits. So I can only assume they made changes to stealth and tested it in pve but not in pvp. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paradoxoglanis.1904 Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 Dont bother playing ranked at all. Lots of people using this right now to force DC right as the match starts so you cant rejoin and get desertion loss. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Endorphin.9147 Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 Turns out you don't have to be the one to click on someone who came out of stealth either, someone on your team can click and it can DC you and half of your team. Another thing that's been happening to me sometimes... I am not sure what triggers this specifically, but it wont let me back in the match on the same character I DC'd with sometimes. I have to character swap to get back in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
