Random dude.5089 Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 How about this anet , i can give you some suggestion to fix this spaghetti code , so for me to lose a t 3 keep just because somehow you have issues coding the shadowstep with the keep and tower environnement , how about this : Fix number 1 : give the main keeps watchtowers. Fix number 2 : Remove the shadow portal for thiefs from pvp because its legit only used for bug abusing. Fix number 3 : give the first active traits on tower watchtower tact instead of the "sabotage depot" and the "hardened gates". I've been witnessing this bs ugabunga playstyle for two weeks and yet we are somehow just playing the game expecting our lord and saviors anet to do something about it with no results , you guys have enough knowledge to figure things out but im tired of sitting afk at my keep being worried that a thief might pop up with his goon squad and take our keeps and towers that have taken probably hours to get to the max tier and lose them in a matter for seconds cause of us not being able to react to this bug fiesta , at this point just bring skyscales to wvw so everyone can have the fun that thiefs are having right now , would be a blast. 6 2 3 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrollingDemigod.3041 Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 I still wonder how A-net came to conclusion that the class with the highest stealth and mobility in the entire game needed a portal that could be used by other people. 12 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, scout better and use target painters if you have that much of a problem catching thieves 2. If you want to take away thief portal you'll have to take away necro and mesmer portals too 3. No it only takes an hour of holding a guild claim to get watchtower, that's easy 4 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, teefs has enough mobility without portal, no compensations needed, just skill rework. 3. IF it won't get decapped in meantime or someone will take away claim, otherwise false. Please refrain from posting on forums while drunk, because you start to write some gibberish just like teef mains. 4 1 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it only takes an hour of holding a guild claim to get watchtower, that's easy 1.This whole thing you typed , makes legit no sense , first of all , target painter cost recources so im not gonna spend all my gold on 100 target painter since i spend so much time in wvw , and they also disapear after some minutes , also i can't place more then one , so yes i will lose the rest of the towers and keep my one keep safe ? yeah definitely solves the problem., also no i scout enough as a roamer , im not an npc that wil scout 24/7 only to watch for thiefs cause anet can't fix bugs. 2.no thiefs portals in wvw have no other use than to bug abuse , necros and mesmers can't do that with portals , since they can't bug their teleports , so invalid argument again , remove thief portals cause they are not used for anything than bug abusing , and remove it only from wvw , its a fair fix. 3.yes it only take one hour to hold a watchtower , so im i gonna go defend my watch tower for one hour straight and leave stoic ? fair trade again ? what you talking about. your legit defending bug abuse or something ? either your a thief player that love this bug fiesta or your somehow delusional and just wanna type random stuff lol , you make no sense bro. 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not going to bother quoting the whole thing since you clearly don't play wvw much, but there's a difference between the throwable Target Painter, and the target painter trap which you can only place one of. Target painters can be thrown and still have a duration but will not overrwrite your other traps, if you play wvw frequently you will get skirmish chests which believe it or not have an option to pick a tricks and traps box. Thief portals work exactly like every other portal except for the fact that they're one way and grant stealth, and saying that you would have to remove the other portals is just fair because fixing any bugs there may be are not related to thief having a portal. You also don't have to sit in the tower for one whole hour, it passes really quickly if you ever actually spent any time roaming and you paid attention to swords on a map. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still don't understand what your trying to tell me , if your giving me ways to deal with this , aight cool apreciate that , or your trying to give excuses for anet to ignore this bug cause there is ways to deal with it , and all you have to do is be worried the whole time that a thief might peekaboo your keep and towers , thats gonna become a 9 hour job at this point. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defias.1892 Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Agreed. No idea why they gave Teefs portal in the first place. Having to spend an hour to sweep keep because some perma-stealth tryhard wants to sneak their guild in is not fun. It's annoying af. 2 hours ago, Eugenides.1274 said: ANet simply doesn't care about exploits in WvW. They used to kinda care, but TP hackers were also alot more blatant back then. They used to TP hack the Orb in EOTM back to their base. Nowadays, most hackers are FOV/Zoom hack rangers, but it's not as obvious so I guess they tolerate them. Also, while they're at it, they can also fix that hole in Stoic where Teefs like to hide. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heibi.4251 Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 As I've said from the beginning of Shadow Portal being added - it should be removed in WvW - period. The skill unbalances the game. Along with the exploiters that use every trick to get into objectives Shadow Portal just makes the thief a cheater's fav toon. One thing you can do is get as close the area that is being used to exploit entry into Stoic and submit an in game report. That's what I was told after submitting a ticket about The Engi Rifle exploit. And it worked for the Engi Rifle exploit. It shows ANET where the exploit is(as if they don't already know - but keep reporting the spot). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or you see the teefe run to the said exploit area and shadow step in then shadow step to the lord after he spike kills the scout. It is not being upset over losing an objective but losing one to an exploit that never has been fixed after years of reports is the problem.
