Possible hacker - walking thru water

[Solid]

Yesterday whilst running around with Arnora with our alts doing my 15 epic, i was swimming across water between Vasudheim and E Svealand (Morra site) when i saw a troll thane (level 17) running thru the water, actually running ON the water, kinda ankle deep and as fast as he would run on land.

is this a known bug or a possible hack?

I took a screenshot, not sure if his name is in the screeny.

I know his name and when i asked him if he was abusing a hack, he promptly logged out.

What is my best course of action?

hmmm..

sound like a LD to me... but report it to GOA or something, and make they monitor him...

Hi Solid!

Not a bug or hack I have seen or heard anything about through E&E, and I guess possibly a severe lag effect but who's to say? Best course of action for anything suspicious like this is always to report it using RightSometime. When you do this, always try to make sure you give them as much information as possible, including server/realm/location/time/date and anything else appropriate. Screenshots may also be useful to them, so include that too.

See what they say... if he really can walk on water, perhaps he'll be a little above the law

Itwould of eather been you laggin or them going LD

Walking on water is not as ammusing as ppl going LD when swimming then continuing to swim when thay reech land.

IF

If this really is a hack.... tell him that i wanna kick his ass.... Hackers destroys the game

I've seen this too, multiple times.

It's been a LD everytime

Still, it's worth checking out

My God, if only all Hacker report threads where like this....he asked for advice, didn't name names and kept it all polite without accusing anybody.

Everybody take example from this before flaming an apparant cheater.

It's a bug.. I've seen screenshots of people 'swimming' on land, and walking on water. Just DAOC getting confused about the type of land.

Be real.

Be real. I've seen unnumberous guys walking through terrain and on water, standing in the sky etc. To see if its lagg or not, go as close as possible and /face, /wave, /who, etc. And what person would be so stupid to make a "jesus-hack" that making him advancing in water a tad faster and risking a banned account? This requires more lack of IQ than i suspect any DAoC-players have
