Any bans planned for the Felms VAS exploit?

dodgehopper_ESO · December 2017

People exploit a lot of things in this game now. A good example that drives me nuts is the way people seem to want to run Fungal Grotto 2. Every time I queue for it nowadays people want to pull Reggr (big nord axe spinning guy who sucks out energy) to the stairs and glitch out 90% of his effects. I recognize that smart play should be part of the game but this kind of play is boring and not what we were sold before the game's release. I miss the days when npc's would call other guards up the path to come attack you... that was when DK chains were a lot more important. My only beef with that was not making leash more like chains. At any regard there are lots of oddball mechanics that are in the game that are unintended but defy intended design. Almost everyone is guilty of using these mechanics because the devs didn't fix or alter them and not because there is something wrong with the player base. I'm not really familiar with doing Asylum in the manner described in this discussion but this sounds like a ZOS problem and not a player problem. ZoS should not punish players for its own bad mistakes - it should fix them.

As sad as I am to say this, if this was considered an exploit, ZOS would have taken action by now, especially considering how quickly they came down on the last vAS HM exploit.

I would say it is now safe to assume this is an acceptable, albeit, super cheesy way to clear the fight.....

The biggest issue I see is that I do think it's an exploit. And why not be the group that reports the exploit...instead of continuously utilizing it. My raid group/gm has reported numerous bugs, glitches, exploits when we encounter them so that we can continue to improve the game rather than profit off of them. The groups that have been using the Felms exploit have sold numerous runs/skins for gold. Yes, this game has issues, but when you're making a game to work on three different platforms it's bound to happen, especially when there isn't a pts for console.

Silence is a form of communications so because nothing has been said about this by devs someone should share how to do it

Zenimax you all said you'll be hard on the cheaters, but you haven't said a word about this situation.

Curious.

When was this said?

sure ban people who encounter glitched things...hell no don't even think of fixing them!

ESO where players can harass, threaten real world harm, doxx, and intimidate you for riding an Apex mount with impunity, but you can get banned for encountering glitches.

It's all about perspective

Lol

It's been shared, read the previous comments on this post.

Are they doing anything about the wall glitch in the St. Olms fight on Xbox? Apparently you can get over one of the walls and walk around on the outside edge, and St. Olms can't directly attack you. He'll just walk in place towards you if you have aggro, and as long as you dodge his steam breath, you can just keep him there outside of his jumping phase.

Another wall exploit??

How hard can it be for ZOS to code it in to reset the boss fight if there are players not within the normal bounds when a fight is initiated? There are so many different ways to fix all of these wall glitches and out of map kills that have happened in vMoL and vAS.

Just look at what they have done with vmol when they tried to fix the wall glitches. We now have a corner that instant kills everyone, a wall that teleports everyone out of the trial who gets to close to it and we can no longer mount.

ATM it's possible to glitch out Saint Felms in VAS (can't say how on the forums obviously) so that he just stands there without doing any mechanics and can be safely DPSed down. Any bans planned for this? @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom @ZOS_RichLambert @ZOS_RichLambert

why should they do that?
and btw we all know that any achievment coming from there is just as much worth as dust in the wind...........
let them have it, and they always have in mind what s++++++ they are
