Blatant exploiting on PC EU (yet another thread about the same person)

This thread is meant to bring awareness to a certain game-breaking exploit involving Soul Assault, as well as a reminder to the Devs that there is a person on PC EU abusing exploits since launch, yet not a single action has been taken against him.

I am sure most of the PC EU players here know who I am talking about. This person has abused bug after bug and exploit after exploit. I usually don't mind, and I have yet to lose a single fight to him; however, it bothers me that the people at ZOS have taken no action against him over the course of SEVERAL YEARS.

I have submitted a report against him many times (one of them being at the day of this thread's posting). I can provide more info in PM if any Devs require, as well as screenshots as proof.

    @ZOS_Wrobel is lead for combat design. He may understand this best.

    Just like the other threads made on the exact same player. I posted this mostly to feel better about myself.

    I don't have any problems with this guy, he did the soul assault combo against me once. After I survived and retaliated he went into turtle mode spamming shield ult like 3 times before getting annihilated. What made me salty is the fact that magplars that are much better lose to him just because he is cheating. It's very sad.

    What is he doing? Casting skills while having soul assault running?

    Yes, blatantly abusing the exploit before every soul assault. Joke's on him, it's pretty predictable hahaha!

    so basically he is animation canceling Puncture and activating soul assault. The ticks line up correctly. The exploit it would seem is inherently a mechanic of the combat engine ZOS choose to build the game around. I'm not so sure its actually a game exploit.

    Getting soul assaulted, then gap closed with the templar gap closer, then jabbed. All that while SA is still up. I won't go deeper into how the exploit is actually performed, but yeah.

    Until that player calls customer support, cries, promises never to exploit again and buy tons of crowns. Then ZOS lets them back in the game. That's how it works on PC NA anyway.

    Last I checked building your entire play style around macroslice exploits gets you invited to ZOS headquarters and a starring role on eso live.

    So I guess it's not really a priority of theirs.

    That is why they keep doing it not a single thing has been done about it, that is the major problem with this game when it comes to exploiting and cheating nothing much ever gets done, the game has a bad reputation in the gaming world for going light on cheaters and keeps a lot of people away from playing it.

    Since Soul Assault is a Channel Ability it shouldn't be active while other actions are taking place...
