Players are wall jumping on top of the gates of New Avalon and abusing the safe spots to attack players on sight that are attempting to enter New Avalon, without any ability to fight back causing them to lose their disguise and be unable to enter the new zone safely. This violates the code of having PVP problems require PVP solutions since their location prevents any ability to fight back because they can dip in and out of the safe zone and are unable to be attacked by melee.
Please extend the armistice zone to cover the gates and prevent players from abusing this location.
Report bugs through the ingame panel and also report the safe spotters through their portraits. Action may be taken, if there’s particularly a lot of them send an email with a short clip to Hacks@Blizzard.com instead.
It’s not a bug. It is simply the same safespotting as ontop of alliance inns to avoid NPC/guard interference from below. Remind us, did Blizzard ban those people? No they were back there the next day.
Eh seen that one couple of weeks ago on US Forums. Doesn’t seem like dev team cares though.
For those that are interested the mechanics are simple. Because the Armstrice zone does not start until roughly 2/3rd into the gate the Hunter on Top can just snipe anyone in Tyr’s Hand going to the gates. This usually drops the disguise and aggros the mobs in the area. The hunter stays safe since no Ranged mobs are in the immediate vicinity of the gate and should the other player through ghost running reach them on top they can just jump into Armstrice Zone. The most direct solution would be extending the no PvP zone to the front of the gate. Not advocating for removing the safe spot since it’s convenient if you want to logout in New Avalon.
Everyone traditionally goes PvP since 2004, and even if you want nothing to do with PvP you still have to go where everyone else is because it’s much easier to find groups and the economy is better. This is exactly why you need PvP / Normal layers instead of PvP / Normal realms
It’s not a PVP server issue, it’s an exploit issue.
You shouldn’t be able move in or out on the gate. Fix that and all is ok.
I don’t know why they even made it the zone like that. Just put guards and remove the armistice or make the scarlet mobs attack your target if you are attacked.
