Some jerk is blatantly cheating in Vengeance, several players posted a report. ZOS must take action and remove the guy from ESO asap.

    DC player? Somehow manages to solo capture keeps in about 30 seconds after your squad finishes repairing the doors and moves out?

    There is a perk at vengeance. It makes you cap as fast as 2 people.

    That perk still doesn't let you capture a keep single-handed in under a minute without seiging it or clearing the guards on the flags.

    I got to see the cheat it in action last night by an enemy player. It might've been related to the insta-capturing keeps I'd seen a few days ago, but it was definitely being used to harass scroll carriers and steal scrolls from keeps without actually entering them.

    One of the folks I was playing with last night was a streamer and he reported it. Plenty of video evidence to back it up. After an hour, the guy even switched factions to ours and started bragging about how he was screwing with everyone. So there'll be the chat log as well as the stream. I expect they'll get a perma-ban shortly and the exploit will get patched.

    It's not getting patched, nocliping has been a thing since the start of the game, and the game has no anti cheat. Insta keep capture is not a thing they can hack in this game.

    If he even is banned, he'll just be back shortly after until he gets bored. Day 2 or 3 and he's still not banned. So now he knows to do it over the weekends since apparently no one is working

    Well, whatever that guy was doing, it was effective. He'd be in the keep with a Coldharbour Fire ballista, kill a few of us before we took him out, then we'd capture the keep, repair the doors and head for the next keep. In the length of time it took us to ride to the first resource of the next keep, the previous one had flipped possession back. At which point, we'd repeat the process in the next keep - a few death to his coldfire, kill him, capture and repair, and the keep flips back to DC before we got to the next one.

    Unless he had a dozen buddies sneaking into the inner keeps unnoticed by any of the 15-20 people in our zerg, I have no idea how he was doing it.
