The fact that you refer to using LoS as an exploit is very telling as to what type of player you are.
Perhaps you could enlighten me as to what type of player I am? Id genuinely be interested to know?
Of course its an exploit, by its very definition the 1vXer is exploiting a game mechanics to their advantage, bravo them, its part of the game. Just as I exploit a game mechanics to hit like a truck from stealth with snipe, bravo me, its part of the game... doesnt stop peopleabout it does it.
You need to learn the meaning of exploit man.
Using game mechanics to your Advantage is not an exploit.
Using the game or breaking the game in a way that is not intented. Thats an exploit. For example the exploit where you could get permanently the cowards gear buff without needing to sprint or wearing that Setup.
I think you are both right.
Exploit can legitimately be used to describe both situations.
Exploit is a cheat. Using LOS is working as intended.
'Exploit' can mean to take advantage of or misuse something, but can also mean 'leverage', or to utilise to the fullest extent.

It has both positive and negative connotations depending on how it's used in a sentence. Its all about the context
in MMO context exploiting means cheating which can lead to getting banned.
Using LOS is not a bug and not a cheat engine. It is gameplay mechanics, trees,rocks towers, pillars etc all are built for a reason in cyrodiil.

The skill use within the build is also vital, these folks are using specific skills, in specific situations, that keep them alive or offer huge burst damage in combination with the sets I eluded to earlier.
Also, speed buffs with line of sight mechanic exploitation. You may think 6 people are doing damage to them the reality is its probably less cos they are line of sighting, dodging, blocking etc.
Frankly I find the 1vX playstyle deeply boring for anything more than a short spell. I also find it quite immersion breaking, cos 1 player running around a stone for 10 mins chassed by 6 or more people who cant kill them, is just silly. But each to their own.
I like to break those upA nice bow gank followed by bow ulti, executed in quick succession, at a point when the 1vXer drops lower on health, as they do periodically before regaining quickly... but you time it right, its good bye 1vXer and its incredibly satisfying
Yes, winning a 5v1 is definetly boring cause its super easy and not a challange at all.
But sniping and dropping a bow ult on someone that is already fighting outnumbered is clearly a satisfying tactic.
..... The attitude of some ppl.
Retire le nom, même si le joueur a commis une infraction, on ne balance pas ici comme ça publiquement. On est plus en 39-45 Vichy c'est fini mec.

How many characters do you have? If you are at 18, I can sort of understand. But if not, then just create a new one.
1. That's 18 if you pay
2. I have one free slot, 3 if you count mules, but I would never ever want to just drop my main and "create a new one". Because I have achievements earned, motifs and recipes learned, horse trained, and, most importantly, I have quests done on that specific character. She has her story. You know, that important moment when NPC in chapter recognizes you because you got rid of skeevers in his basement in the starting zone or something? It's like proposing someone ditch their kid and just "make a new one".

Every time we complain about them, they vow to make 10 more costumes/motifs with them.
It sure seems that way. It's like "So you don't like our armor designs? Here, take this!" /bigger longer more repulsive flaps
