    Nothing to do with your issue but another "exploit" I caught in a screenshot. One player stayed deliberately in that place in the wall and he was taking no harm from abilities, only a small portion of aoe dmg which he outhealed immediately.

    He was there for like 10+ min since it was impossible to harm him.

    For the third time, I am gonna say that this player 1) did that on purpose 2) did it numerous times for a period of time 3) other players reported the same behaviour from his part and reported him 4) he was deliberately spamming self-heals and deep thoughts to keep himself alive.

    [snip]

    I've got stuck the same way numerous times the last few weeks due to undo. And only thing that will get you out is by getting hit by some AoE's, and sometimes those aoes doesn't hit. And to what purpose would this "eXpLoIt" serve? Congrats, you got yourself stuck in a wall and the only way to het out is to crash your game because the /stuck comand doesn't work while in combat....

    "Hey, I accidentally got stuck in a wall. What is the best way to get unstuck? Wait to die from aoe and teleport? No. I ll self-heal permanently while a horde of enemy players attack me with Deep Thoughts/Introspection, both healing myself and mitigatiing dmg with major protection."

    The purpose of this exploit it trolling. Like the guy that flew in the sky and threw fire on players.

    Anyone here who thinks that bridge / river crossing is anything other than cheating need to go back, clean your glasses off, and watch again. There is no bridge crossing to account for where he crossed. Go look at the bridge again and see exactly where it connects when it isn't destroyed. He is crossing above it. He also floats down on the stairs on the other side. Are you really trying to say that the bridge connects to where he is floating down from? Seriously. Watch it again.

    what?

    So, I caught some players able to cross a broken bridge by "flying" or "levitating" to the other side. I wasn't able to catch the whole thing where the players also manage to fly up and down at will. Something like this begs the question of what other forms of "cheats" are possible in cyrodiil without our knowledge.

    I have made a previous thread many months ago with a similar case involving scrolls and all I had was just pictures to go by, So, ZOS. Maybe you can look into it because I'm for sure there are NO skills that let your fly to the other side of the bridge. :P

    EDIT: I DESTROYED THE BRIDGE BEFORE THIS HAPPENED! Not a glitch. :neutral:

    Hey. I run a ESO channel that has close to 10k subs. I have a few videos of people cheating from other players and I was going to make a video talking about it all. The videos I have are of people flying and doing trial boss skills lol. This was a good video and good work catching whatever it is.

    Do you mind if I use this in my video? I will give you full credit :)

    It was example on forum - when cheater fly in auridon, gratwood and kill peoples with rockets ! ROCKETS !!!

    So cheats do exist. And if you just google it you find it in 10 minutes in internet.

    So believe it or not is nit a question - it is just stupid, if you can just check it and find for 10 minutes.

    Yes. It really exist.

    But not all situations like this are cheats, some times it is trully bugs. And game have a lot of it if you play not standart way.

    If you run only by roads may be you will not find bugs. If you stay on roof and get mage guild mine - may be you stuck in roof or fall from it.

    If player easely kill you, ye will not use cheats against you.

    But he do, if he really can not kill you, but he want.

    It can be catch on video and examples of it exists. Even cheaters post there own videos how they cheat, fly and etc. With programs they use and etc.

    It is really a problem, i hate cheaters ! But a lot of players just say: it is no cheats.

    It is ! Just go and check it. If you do, may be it will be fixed if a lot of people will know about this problems.

If he was accidentally "stuck" and wanted to get "unstuck", he could have easily stopped healing himself, die and teleport to a wayshrine. Instead, he kept self-healing for about 10 min and went back there to do the same thing.

    [snip]
    The diff is - OP is providing a video and we all can judge based on that.
    You show a picture from a situation, which a lot people experienced themselfs and for the rest of the story we have to believe you (or not).
    1) Is just your guess - we cannot proof it
    2) If true speaks clearly against him - but we see only one picture from one occurence
    3) more or less the same as 2) and we have to trust even further (based on my exp what ppl claim, I stop at this point :) )
    4) The 2 times I had this situation myself, I did the same. I don't even know why :)
    At least one time I survived and could leave the wall/ground afterwards without /stuck and I guess that felt a bit better then the I-give-up-death.

    You are right - I was clearly wrong with that guess. And I was to lazy to watch it again :)

    Thanks for the video and yes, it is clearly the levitation hack.

    The guy levitates from mid-stairs S to mid-stairs N at Alessia bridge, and everybody who plays the game is aware that at Alessia midstairs there simply is no bridge. It is leading from the base of one staircase to the other. So if the guy would just sneak over a glitched bridge, he would be half a staircase lower and run right into the wall. He is clearly a lot higher.

    As several other ppl already said: report him with his name and a link to this vid and hope that ZOS for once puts up a ban.

    I've seen something like this just recently. (September 2020)

    It was when AD went to Rayle's to grab a scroll. It was when DC had a low population bonus, and those of us that were "trying" to get the scroll back were fighting a lost cause.

    Why?

    The scroll carrier was walking far up in the air for us to hit them. I watched the scroll until they hit the fields between Nik and Roe. What happened after that IDK because I just turned around (it was pointless)

    This was deliberate cheating, and nobody can convince me otherwise.

    Should be like every other respected game. You have to install some sort of Anti cheat software before you can play.

    Why keep paying for a game that Zos can't control or even find out the players that cheat are.

    Can't believe that Zos rely on players to report suspicious activities shall we say.

    Yah that guy levitated almost halfway across the map with a scroll, several people have it on vid and reported him, but I know he’s been reported for other things in the last 2 weeks as well. Some people said they were getting whispers from him laughing and saying that Zeni won’t do anything about it, but nobody has offered up screenshots Of tells, so take that with a grain of salt.

    It’s just a shame that he was so far above the fighting that he couldn’t show how OP his incap is.

    The individual in the OP video appears to at some point be walking along the edge of where the bridge would be if it was still intact. Could it be that somehow with the performance issues there is a bug where visually the bridge is down but its still technically there? Allowing players who are aware of this to cross along it?

    Nope, he doesn't.
    He is walking outside of where the physical bridge would actually be. You can see that he isn't even walking out from the middle of the bridge tower, but from the corner, and over to the other corner. No bridge have ever let me walk that path, that's for sure.

    First time I'm seeing this, but If you were to be directly behind him, at one point you would even see him outside of the bridge towers themselves. Then he sweepes to the left to "land" on the other tower's corner, where he barely clips the top of the wall when landing. Really no point in doing this, unless you're awful and a bomber.

    Sad to see a behaviour like this from a Dominion soldier :/


    Basically, there's only two logical explanations for this occurrence; he is either cheating, or walking on sunshines. Take your pick.

    Oh dear this is only the begin of the problem, i just hope these videos enlight more people hoping that they don't get mad while playing and try to enjoy the max, the amount of exploits in this game it's absurd, well, it's a dead engine,i can't blame much, that's the price of removing the original devs.

    The cheating has been in use from inception of game.

    You have these "elite" groups of players that all knowingly use exploits while regaling their "skill" publically.

    Many players just left and until ZOS cracks down and realistically has some working form of cheat detection won't be coming back.

    This is just an example of what's visible. There is much more that is much harder to catch them doing, from regen rates to movement rates and more.

    I once caught a well known sorcerer that I thought was a good player afk. He was part of the hidden click, the elite "l2p" utterers, the group that comes to these forums and attacks anyone calling out cheats... Well, I caught him afk and in stealth and soon realized his health regen was beyond my glass cannon nightblade's ability to kill. Has anything changed? no...

    My videos all look much different to your one.

    But if it's true, then it's very interesting. I would agree - it looks like he is walking over the path where normaly the bridge would be. Maybe a very big sync problem? Wouldn't surprise me honestly.


    Probably didn't want a Forums ban for calling out a character in Forums.
