They obviously do not have the talent or skills to grab the scrolls through legitimate gameplay so they need to resort to exploits. They know they are cheating. You know they are cheating.
How about enforcing your TOS and ensure fair game play by permanently banning those losers?
As a DC Player.. I completely agree.
As AD have been doing this, I have had my Groups run to that scroll and try and lead it back to the gate.
This is very sportsman like..
play fare or don't play at all.
@ZOS It is time to put on your big girl panties and start enforcing crap.
Your lackluster track record is shameful.
It also make me wonder how a no name Game Dev groups even got their hands on the Elder Scroll's game in the first place .
Tired of getting trolled by ZOS MOD's ........

It was an exploit in DAOC if you did it, it was an exploit in GW2 if you did it and its an exploit in ESO if you do it.

Unfortunately, what they will do (and have already announced) is nerf Ferocious Leap more to remove the vertical axis. Even though (it is claimed) the exploit involves a horizontal leap with Take Flight.
Same thing they did with chain pull - making that a useless skill in PvP.

You can also get up there with other abilites, according to the AD guild who's been using the exploit. ZOS is instead looking at making the Scrolls un-pickupable if the Gates are closed: you can still get in, but it'd be pretty pointless.Edited by Lord_Draevan on February 2, 2015 5:44PMI'm a man of few words.

It's not an exploit, it's a bad. so what time should I be at what gate to help heal?

GorraShatan✭✭✭✭Did AD ever managed to actually secure the scroll? I saw a few attempts at this in Thorn Saturday (when I was playing as AD), but they all failed. If anything it was a waste of effort on AD's part. Not that that makes it right.Edited by GorraShatan on February 2, 2015 6:50PM0 -

✭Unfortunately, they will nerf legitimate play styles instead. No more hiding behind open gates. Nerf DK leap/flight. Should just ban the offenders and not punish honest players. AD - I thought you were better than this. As a DC player, I don't even want to take the ill gotten scrolls from AD.0 -

The point was never to capture the scroll.

WarrioroftheWind_ESO✭✭✭✭If they do incorporate gates into the temple structure than I don't see why they don't just animate them and key them to open when the keeps go down. Only other option would be if a dedicated small group stayed on guard duty at the scrolls round the clock but that'd probably be immensely boring. Maybe buff the temple guards and put them on steroids until keeps are taken? Add a scroll-keepers buff that boosts dmg and health by 100% when the associated keeps are up? Dev's do need to stop sitting on the fence when it comes to issues like this. You can only tip toe on the fence so long before you slip and land painfully on your crotch.

Junipus✭✭✭✭✭The worst part of all this is that some of those who do these actions are likely doing it for trolling purposes. Once March 17th hits and the B2P crowd cotton on to these exploits (famous, not against ZOS) then there'll be countless players on every side making full use of the "grey" areas of ZOS and making PvP a laughing stock.
ZOS need to fix this issue and resolve their "grey" areas so that the game has some chance of success in the future.The Legendary Nothing1 -

Regardless of the point, all it achieved was 1) Dragon Leap getting nerfed, 2) Scrolls will be made un-pickupable when the Gates are closed, and what I assume the intended goal was all along 3) Annoy/*** off/troll EP.Edited by Lord_Draevan on February 2, 2015 7:43PMI'm a man of few words.

Ferocious Leap is being fixed to what they intended, the same way Take Flight and the unmorphed Dragon Leap were months ago. To think otherwise is delusional.
Secondly, we don't use Ferocious Leap, we use Take Flight.
The goal here is to get exploits fixed and make as much noise as possible. Hopefully sometime in the near future ZOS will become aware of how these constantly abused exploits affect the PvP community.
Dark Flare, Purge, Wall of Elements, Ferocious Leap. All exploits which Red abuses on the regular, but nobody talks about it.
EDIT: #3 is correct with one caveat. The groups we like don't care about any of this, the groups we dislike are so outraged they probably lost hair this weekend. Notice how IR has had zero presence in all this? We like IR.Edited by Tripwyr on February 2, 2015 7:48PMAlacrity Founder | Forum Emperor

It wasn't intended that you could use it to leap up walls, thus it's being made so you can't. Same for Gates, as Brian Wheeler earlier in this thread said you're not supposed to go through when they're closed.The goal here is to get exploits fixed and make as much noise as possible.

Nothing wrong with that, so long as we can get people stop to pretending only one side uses them.EDIT: #3 is correct with one caveat.
