Smoosh.2718 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 While hovering my mouse over the warrior traits, I noticed one thing in particular, the following trait crashes the game consistantly every time you mouse over it.Now this could be pretty game breaking if you want to use this trait... or really annoying when you accidently mouse over it (yes that is all it takes to crash).I've been able to replicate this same crash 4 times in a row by doing the same thing, moused over all the other traits with no issues.Location:PvP Lobby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rihar.3465 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Can confirm that hovering exactly this trait (Rousing Resilience) crashed the whole game wherever you are at the moment. Checked in LA.However I'm not sure this is not happening because of ArcDps or any other addon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zychuu.7294 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 You can crash somebody's game by sending a link to this trait to someone. If they try to even hover a mouse over it... done. Seems serious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treacy.4067 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Crashes my game too just hovering over it with cursor. Was in LA. It crashes when trying to trait it also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woltarion.6829 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Also happened to me, somebody linked me this trait and my game crashed instantly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zape.2094 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Can we please do something about the players who are spamming people with this trait? Or is this "not reportable"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hesione.9412 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 An idiot linked that trait in the map chat in wvw yesterday and no-one crashed. They seemed rather disappointed that the crash didn't happen. Because I thought it was patched out, I didn't report them. Darn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoosh.2718 Posted December 2, 2020 Author Share Posted December 2, 2020 Its all fun and games till you realise that some players actualy get slapped with this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zape.2094 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Exactly. I have screenshots of players posting these links in starter zones to annoy newcomers, cause apparently getting newbies kicked out of the game is super fun and very exciting. I barely got one of them to stay with the game, because I quote "i started today and i keep getting crashed every 15min". After I explained it was patch day he decided to stick with it for a few more days. Can we do something about it, or are ArenaNet as usual just going to ignore this issue?

TheQuickFox.3826 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Yesterday some trolls were spamming Rousing Resilience in map chat in Dragons Stand causing many players to crash out. Also, the map server itself crashed for some different reason. To be clear, Mordremoth won this round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do believe there is a minor role back as well when this happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoosh.2718 Posted December 2, 2020 Author Share Posted December 2, 2020 To be fair, this sums up this situation:https://twitter.com/that_shaman/status/1333878825420255235I have also been hit by a warning by following said advice before as well.

Rudis.9428 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Huh, I guess someone putting the link to that in chat to make other people crash is a more common issue than I thought. I saw someone do it in Auric Basin yesterday during that large event I keep forgetting the name of.There's no option for reporting this specific kind of behavior in-game, so I just sent in a ticket to support for reporting players along with the screenshots I took showing them using that link and the reactions from several players, as well as showing what happens when I mouse over it.
