I hadn't herd of this tell today. I figured it was not that big of deal so I tried it.... Wow... How has this not been fixed. After a few min of destroying entire groups of people I felt so bad I had to log off for awhile. I permentally took camo off my bar. I really can't believe this hasn't been patched . Sad... Sad... sad

    certain other MMO's that value PvP would have had a major exploit hot fixed within days
    Everyone knows the phenomenon of trying to hold your breath underwater - how at first it's alright and you can handle it, and then as it gets closer and closer to the time when you must breathe, how urgent the need becomes, the lust and the hunger to breathe. And then the panic sets in when you begin to think that you won't be able to breathe - and finally, when you take in air and the anxiety subsides...that's what it's like to be a vampire and need blood.

    Yes, it's been bugged and exploited for quite a while now. Hopefully it gets fixed with the next update. They removed a different exploit with this last patch.

    I vaguely remember someone saying it was finally getting fixed next patch. But yea, it's brutal.

    Are they admins doing anything to stop it or is it just free reign. I mean can you get banned for it?

    Should players get banned for exploiting it? Yes. Will they? No. Zenimax knows about this bug/exploit and it will be removed soon enough. Then all the terribads will have to actually learn how to play.

    Yea something like this that gets rampantly abused would cost the company significant money to punish. Not worth their effort, from a business standpoint. It would be NICE if they got banned, but realistically it would never happen.

    To my knowledge, they don't ban for anything in PvP.

    I've seen people banned for other exploits such as the duping bug and for gold seller spam. But in PvP, it soon becomes clear people aren't getting banned, so everyone starts using the same exploit, if easy to reproduce, until they finally fix it or remove it from the game.

    Guess one benefit of console is that you don't have to worry about exploits like this. We are behind on updates so they'll be patched before we receive the same update that caused it.

    Uhm its actually the other way around. You have all the exploits and the ones that will be fixed on pc (doubt it) will be also fixed on consoles just later.

    I don't think PS4 is running rampant with camouflage hunter exploiters. Looking like a PC only issue.

    No it's everywhere ... Honestly if they are not willing to fix it then I'm beginning to think its not an exploit

    Because people dont know it. But you can only hope that most of those exploits will be dixed before people will learn.

    On the other hand i play on pc so perhpas if you play on conole try the camo hunter - its the most easy to replicate.

    The duration bug did not port to console, but there is another stacking bug, which players on console are using. Personally see it all the time in both PVE and PVP.

    It's just stacking the effect repeatedly, to the point you can one shot people wih something like caltrops because it procs so many times.
    I'd like to believe that the other faction is scared of me, but in reality they're probably more like "F**k this guy."

    Well the problem is that right now on pc more and more people are using those exploits (camo hunter is just one of the many ) and if i want to play pvp (the only part of game i trully enjoy) i have a sad choice: start using them too, or stop playing. Only hope for me right now is 1.7 patch. We will see, although i dont have much hope..

    It also works with the DK skill Eruption. All of the procs hit at once and insta-nuke whatever you hit, especially if it's daedra/undead. There are also other skills that it works with.

    Might as well get all of them out in the open. If everyone starts abusing every possible combination of this exploit, maybe they will finally fix it.

    Im not holding my breath. Was excited for IC but even if they do fix all the exploits we know about, I have no faith there won't be new ones and they will go on for months.

    I know I pick option 2 and stopped pvping toll IC that way it's at least a good chance for one guy doing it instead of 5.

    I think its the best way. Level the field. Lets widen the meaning of unexpected usage of game mechanics.

    I play on the PS4 and I discovered this exploit by accident by doing a delve full of undead in cyrodill, I was wondering why it suddenly started proccing all the time and that poor AD templar that jumped me I completly one shot him with a Venom arrow and AGAIN when he came back for revenge while I was on my way out.
    If I discovered it on console other people have too.

    So as a noob, I have no idea what camo hunter is, what it does or what this exploit supposedly is? Anyone care to fill me in on this in a pm or something?

    I have no intention of using such a thing, I am simply curious what it is all of the "Big kids" are talking about. Using exploits to kill challenge or for laughs is no fun anyway. Go legit or go home I say.
