Where is the picture?

Haha, it's an interesting bug.

I was killed while picking up the ball. I assumed that I didn't get the ball, but to my surprise, I respawned at camp, with the ball on me. I've seen this bug before, on opposing teams, but never knew how it happened, and now I know. It's actually quite fun when it happens to you.

PS: That screenshot is way too blurry. You can't even make me out.

No, you pick up ball at the same time you get killed, and then you can respawn with the ball.

I think this is it, no?

Code, I purposely used a screen shot that blurred your name. Also, you are forgetting to mention that you stayed in the spawn for the duration of the whole match holding the ball from around 100 points to 500 all in the spawn. When we tried targeting you with ranged attacks you even backed up farther to LOS. Anyways, I'd like to think that most people wouldn't abuse these exploits and I am hoping that ZOS can fix it.

Nevertheless, this one of three ways that I have seen people can exploit Chaos ball. The cheating in chaos ball is unacceptable and I am very surprised at how long the multiple chaos ball exploits have been in existence for awhile now and it completely ruins the spirit of the game.

@ZOS_GinaBruno Are you all aware of all the Chaos ball exploits?

There are two more exploits that I know of:

1) In Arcane University you can go towards your spawn and use meditate when your close to death. When you die, the ball seems to disappear into the wall and eventually re-spawns. The team performing the exploit keeps someone in crouch near the ball waiting for it re-spawn and the cycle continues.

2) In Mor Khazgur, people slide off the outer ledges that usual results in death. I have seen people able to repeatedly slide of the cliff and land on piece of terrain and not die. They will sit down and are nearly impossible to reach with any attacks. There team can usually continue to heal them though.

Yea, I had my fun with it. It was intoxicating.

That's the only one that I've seen. What other bugs are there?

Edit: Nevermind, I see your other post.

What is ‘quite fun’ about hiding in your spawn for the remainder of the match? Among the known BG community on my server, when the ball bugs out on you, you go die. There are a few players who abuse the known bugs, but those are usually of the high AP rank, low-skill variety of player.

I'm the low AP rank, low-skill variety.

It’s an annoying bug.

Not nearly annoying as fire rune insta kills at spawn points though.
