    I always find with bunny hoppers a strategically placed javelin tends to knock the wind out of their sails. A cc then a meteor then finishes them off

    Right? I live javelinning their butts back down. And when they get up, I immobilize them. 2-3 seconds is all that's needed for a long hop back to a keep!

    I'm not complaining, I am laughing at you. 😂

    I, for one, wouldn't mind if sprint jumping was allowed, but it isn't and if you do it, you're exploiting. Sad but true. I'm not against the thing per se, Just against exploiters of any sort.

    People who do not see the advantage of jumping have never tried it. There are loads of advantages.

    A few examples:

    Terrain is not flat you can hit a target at range when you want and not when they want.

    Sprint jumping makes you able to recover stamina while Sprinting if timed right. Since stamina recovery come in chunks.

    You can keep the speed up and jump block to avoid taking as much damage. When getting stunned you can travel forward.

    I do a bow necro and my favourite is to Sprint and jump expunge myself to keep the speed up while getting rid of debuffs.

    PC NA? Just wanna make sure to report you if I meet you :) exploiting is a bannable offense. Keep that in mind.

    Which part is an exploit?

    Make it stop, it's just silly and it makes the fighting look like a joke.

    The bunny hoping is to cancel animation and help produce more damage. I've seen it in other games as well and if done correctly can boost your damage by a decent amount. It is annoying but if it adds 5-10% to damage, you will see it done.

    Why do you even care what other players do?

    They are probably frustrated because they cannot kill the target so they blame the jumping.

    No, it's just irritating to watch.

    We're supposed to be adults, not four year olds.

    I don't PVP in this game, so that doesn't affect me directly and I don't want jumping nerfed to the extent I can't jump up a steep slope, but I can totally see it's annoying.

    Not all adults get this bent out of shape by harmless things others do. Who is the immature one in that scenario?

    I have no idea if jumping helps and I don't really PvP these days, but I DO jump while running in PvE with the hope that if I am sprinting when I jump and I stop pressing the sprint key while in the air, I would retain my speed while not using resources.

    Where was the exploit? Don't be so pathetic.

    Dumbest thread ever, about the only skill in game jumping helps avoid is templar sweeps, even then, it's mostly down to Templar aim - If you can't keep up, you can't keep up, work on getting better instead of complaining.

    Just for clarity as well, jumping and bunnyhopping are entirely different, pretty sure this thread is about standard jumping rofl.

    So it would seem people are mad because jumping looks ridiculous?

    not mad, just very annoyng and ruins the game im paying money to play adults and fight pvp, not chasing a jumping bean.
    if i attack them they immediately run away jumping untill i stop chasing and then return to me jumping, even when i leave they follow me while jumping, just constantly jumping and following me. if i attack they just run away jumping and run around rocks and then when i stop chasing them and go to fight other normal pl;ayers then they continue to chase me.
    just very annoying.

    That is part of the game you are paying for. It is also a tactic that works very well to jump and turn away. Players follow and you just wait for them to make a mistake and they are dead. Very much PvP oriented.

    It's not like they deny you a headshot that does more damage. Mid air knockbacks and stuns can work for but also against the jumper with well timed cc. It's ok. Plenty of scissors for this paper.

    My sneaky bosmer can sit still on a rock, waiting for the bunnyhoppers. With a hard attack on the bow they can be tossed to the ground when the arrow hits them.

    It tickles all the right places... especially when my comrades are fast in perception and kills them before they even knew what hits them

    U can bunnyhop right back to your keep, honey ❤️

    Jumps and unpredictable movement is good against ranged bow heavy attacks. So if they didn't hop, it will be easier for you to gank them. And so much pride in Xv1 ganking some random player :D it could be fun, but nothing to brag about. Btw, honey, you know that there is good chance that snipe will be removed next patch and replaced with normal spammable? :heart:

    Based on what you say they'll remove snipe? Also, of you knew the game, you'd know they didn't mean heavy attack or snipe, they meant the other skill I forget the name now that has a knocking effect. It's a CC. What they described is what hunting animals do... Say a cheetah... The cheetah that knocks down the gnu is never the same one that goes for the neck or nostrils. In this case, the bow CCer is the cheetah that brings down the game for their friends fun.

    Snipe was removed in fake patch notes. Of course we can't say how much actual patch notes will be different from fake ones, but from previous experience, some of them might be.

    As for the other ability, if he meant magnum shot it doesn't hit hard and it has small range now after nerf... so using it from stealth hardly will put anybody in danger if he is not already running from many players.

    I imagine the folks doing it think otherwise since it can grant an advantage in other games, but it doesn't do anything but make them look silly.

    .

    Wrong
    There's a reason ppl bunnyhop

    I've never had a situation fighting someone that's jumping up and down in ESO where my attacks/skills didn't land... In other games you could mess up the attacker's targeting by doing so. It's simply not the case in ESO.

    Its not about your attacks not landing, its about the bunnyhopper attacks landing more frequently
    bunnyhopping, for some reason, helps with LoS

    Those notes were fake, and created based on nothing, not sure exaggerating version of reality. But hey... Good on you.

    i hope one day they add a Really High stamina cost to jumping, to the point that 3 jumps will empty your stamina.
    it's ridiculous to see them do it.
    how would you feel if someone ran up and punched your car while you were stopped at a red light and then they immediately start jumping 10 foot into the air constantly jumping all around your car and saying things to antagonize insult you insult your mom insult your clothes bait you to fight them while constantly jumping all around. and if you get out of the car to fight them they just keep jumping and Run Away and hide behind tree.
    it's ridiculous.


    Maybe we should increase the cost of outfits and motifs by 100x, because I don't like the way they look, and well, because I don't like the way they look.
