if a shadowblade vanishes and then screen drags to get away and goes flying up into the sky, is that abuse ?

Ive been wondering about screen dragging. Has it been fixed or not? Only ive seen some really suspect actions in RvR recently, akin to the old old window dragging.

Havent really played the past month so dunno the current situation but i agree there are certainly suspect behaviour, but in my experience mostly from casters in sieges etc - they will come gliding over the ground (no animation etc) and shoot their dd's/bolts/whatever and when you retaliate they arent in range, in fact, 2 sec later they reappear where they started gliding. And no, its not standard lag when its the same person doing the exact same thing again and again. Some kind of abuse imo, dunno if its windowdraging or something else.

Aye I've seen the casting whilst 'gliding', animation as though they where stood still, always assumed it was lag but tbh when it happens again and again, I wouldnt be suprised if there was some sort of abuse going on.

Very sad if it is though.

some ppl and guilds have always done it and will always do it til its fixed, like strafing. and dont say strafe takes skill... pleeeeeease. its bug abuse/exploiting plain and simple.

i havent seen any suspect actions from mids tbh. Just a certin mid caster by the name of pwnjoo, who can somehow cast a lifetap without actually casting. He needs banning tbh :D

Then you must have played pretty poorly if you think bonedancer is just about insta lifetapping.

dont forget that debuff..

As for window dragging, this fucks up tanks the most, i though it had been fixed, or well i never really looked into it much. It is sure a fucking pain when sum1 window drags off and u cant hit em, even if u stand still from were they started.

I would be much more concerned about warping 500 units than the window dragging though. seen that happen a few times for sure.

No I haven't, but I do know that theres more then instant lifetap to the class and it does require skill to use the class to its full potentional, which some people fail to see. You should know that its an easy class to play, but extremly hard to master.

it's not always window dragging - even the slightest bit of lag will have you falling over the side of towers (target someone and face them in a tower as they try to cast - even if they're just running into cover they'll be in view)

of course if they only ever seem to warp like that when it's in their favour ;) and you never see them falling over the side of the wall getting nuked to bits before popping back up top then something's a bit suss ;)

I like teleporting action, tbh

www.spinnenwald.de/videos/daoc/cheatzor.avi

and just for the record, the 2nd SM died and his bot got into the tower at ~15-20% health :( was a very cool fight though against him, just a pain I had to waste 2 instas +NW for Mr. Iliketowarparound. I think I just got lucky his shields went down, watch pet dmg near the deathblow.

It looked a bit strange but I dunno if it was caused by a 3rd party program. Could have been a mix between fraps and small server lag or something.

Windowdragging has been fixed... just checked it up myself. If you move window you just stand still in game, so that aint a good cheat tbh... I guess the accusers just got owned :)
oh.. .I did cheat on Championship Manager 92/93
