300+ Mercenary Mages? Really???

Daunting · July 2014

I realize that this is a "grey area" that ZoS refuses to do anything about, but anyone still using these are sorry excuses for players. Having to use a feature that was removed because of known bugs to defend keeps just shows lack of skill. Not only to defend, but in open field battles as well. What ever happened to players taking pride in the fact that they could beat another team with no exploits? If you spent more time actually learning to play instead of putting down zergs...and I mean zergs...or these things, maybe you wouldn't have to use them as a crutch in the first place. No skill whatsoever. My question is, why are these things even allowed in game still?

Maybe they were just using them to write their name from overhead?

lol, I guess the people using them will run out eventually. Lets just all pray there isn't another dupe bug in the future.

Seen couple people use 300+ each in afew days. Funny waste of mages.

Supposedly there is a duper out there. Keep hearing about that crap.

Devs don't address this, and should have been smart and wiped them out of player's inventories if they're supposedly not meant to exist in the game anymore. Instead, they allow people to keep them, with the very painful risk of having someone duplicate them, which someone is in fact doing due to the fact that there is no possible way for someone to have the amount of pocket mages I have been seeing these past two days.

I so want video of the time we went to siege a keep and one person soloed about 30 of us using the invulnerable mage glitch with ALOT of mages. Popped open the postern and it was like cracking open a mage piñata. It sucked.

They're not only putting them in keeps but on resources as well. 20 at a time, for 7 hours straight yesterday. Then again today for another 6 hours. They did the same thing against EP, which is making me think that their supply is endless. Our count is over 600 now, god knows how many they used on EP.

I've sent several tickets and it has almost been a week now. The player spamming the infinite mages is still in game and the moderators of the game seem to be ignoring the issue and doing nothing about it. And now because of this I have no interest to resub if this is the kind of care and consideration the moderators put into this game and their clientele.

I still have 16 mages left personally, I'm just waiting to use them at a time where I really don't want an enemy to take something of mine.

I want unbugged ones back

Make them cost more though.(as much as a forward camp would be reasonable.)

happened about 2 nights ago in wabba. we were sieging I THINK alessia(im EP) then all of a sudden, ALOT of these invincible mages popped up. it also happened at another keep. the other keep we caped, but the mages were still there, and the NPC guards were fighting them. it was both hilarious and pathetic. I thought ZOS fixed this nonsense??:(

Same happened to me a few days back, i wish i had video of it, it was actually kind of epic in a way.

The door went down and out comes this wall of mages.
Would have made for a nice E3 promotional video ...
