(fixed) Gamebreaking bug - Salvation set giving 100k Weapon Damage

SanTii.92

why you went public with this?? Seems a prety dumb move, really.

You should have taken this to them, and only went public if no response / unwilling to fix it on a reasonable time frame.

This was caused by something in the SotH update? As in...not on console?

Chances are Nifty has submitted it to ZOS privately but also wanted to show everyone else what is going on

Its not just the salvation set, there is something else at play, zos aint going to be able to fix this, bicuase its not just salvation.

That is one of that craziest *** things I've ever seen, god damn, if ZOS lets this go live on Consoles then whatever faith I have left in them will be shattered. If they can't fix it properly in time this is EXACTLY the sort of thing that justifies postponing the update's release (for any person or company that's got half a brain anyway), of they fail to sort it out somehow then shame on them.

What's the point of showing this to everybody else?

This can only mean an extended downtime to find a fix at best, or broke leaderboards and huge amount of sets being farmed at worse

They have. All the bugs pc gets comes to console. Never fails to happen. This needs to be fixed ASAP freddy Kappa. No seriously this needs to be fixed. This is going to screw up leaderboards badly for every class.

@ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom

I really dislike having exploited scores on leaderboards, could we possibly just disable this set till it is fixed? Much like the trapbeast. Please and thank you

Lol...this was actually fixed on PTS......so now again its not the same patch they uploading to live server..gg

Much like the rearming trap exploit upon IC release the more people know about this and as sad as it is to say the more people exploit the hell out of it the quicker it will get fixed. IMO once a gamebreaking bug like this is released for general consumption the damage has already been done to the leaderboards and pvp, we just have to hope that ZOS acknowledges it and fixes it as soon as possible.

The bug isn't consistent though. Just tried it on 32-bit client - had a tooltip of "150 increased weapon damage". Tried it on 64-bit client - "13k increased weapon damage".
Tried it on non-WW char - 13k
On a WW stam sorc - 150.

I'm still trying to figure out a pattern to this --"

lol@ppl worried about PvE leaderboards.. its like those leaderboards brings you food to your doorstep.
its extremely annoying in PvP thats for sure, in PvE it helps you kill brainless NPCs faster and thats it.
oh and dont act innocent, its like you did not have rearming trap beast on your both bars when the trap beast exploit was functioning rofl

Absolutely not feeling guilty about using this to get some maelstrom weapons if it actually makes it to console on the 16th.

Poor thing is in shock seeing those mangy fleabag werewolves.

Tested and confirmed with an older Salvation set i still had stashed away.

Yes, that is the actual weapon damage. No, it's not just a UI bug. Yes, it does hit that hard.

AUI-CS: v.0.981 | Damage (Out): 145,277 (2.1s) - DPS (Out): 68,122




I'm pretty sure a golden CP160 would get close to 100k DPS ...

You have to mix it with a certain other set ...

dsalter

i might goof around alittle with my old set, took it off to do some dungeons but now i might be able to wear it

silky_soft

I guess everyone should use it. Since people can use cheat engine and get unbanned and continue to use it.

I disagree
..

With the outcry coming from EVERYONE and not just a small few the pressure will be on ZOS to actually "Hotfix" something instead of putting it on the back burner on the list of the things that are waiting to get on the list to get on a list of things to fix...

Hope this gets "Hotfixed" before this weekend comes

No matter if PVE or PVP. It needs to be fixed.
