New pvp exploit

Hello all, so today i experinced a new pvp exploit. Twinks can easilly defeat a season 2 pvp geared plate user. I think the rogue was around level 27 and i was on my Retribution Paladin, and the rogue killed me in one hit. Like what’s up with that?

Wouldn’t call it new. I’m surprised that this isn’t fixed yet but on the other side we talk about blizz here so…

World PvP, Blizz ain’t going to really care.

You can always log in 60 rogue trial and camp the exploiter

Was it an Undead player?

Right now any level 1-29 can oneshot an 80…

Blizzard has done a wonderful job…

Translation “Waah, I can´t safely gank low level players with impunity anymore”

Maybe pick on someone your own size instead for a change, ya damn coward.

Seriously, after 20 years of high level players ruthlessly and relentlessly killing newbies and low level players at every possible chance, and more often than not even bragging about it, this is probably a breath of fresh air for everyone with even the slightest shred of decency and honor, and if nothing else a well deserved and long overdue comeuppance.

Does a level 27 belong in Undermine? I guess you don’t play in war mode regularly, there isn’t as much ganking lowbies as you think. In fact, I don’t think i have seen a single “lowbie” in warmode since the start of the expansion.

Every bored sad case has seen and is copying the rextroy video griefing using shadowy blades.

When you are out doing the weekly Sparks quest you shouldn’t be punished by exploiters, simple as.

WHile I agree with everything you just said…

The OP is well known on these forums for being one of teh classic “i only fight against lowbies” gankers. For example in a recent thread considering a 5 on 1 in his favor to be a fair fight, then denouncing the others as cheaters, exploiters and cowards when they simply run from an obviously overmatched mob that is continuing to ruthlessly hound them.

While I OFC agree that exploiting is wrong, period, it simply could not have happened to a more deserving player :beers:

No.

Translation: there is a bug ingame that shouldn’t be and people are exploiting it.

And you can still kill the low level anyway. Its not a bug that will deter anyone from ganking lowbies. And no, I don’t gank lowbies.

This Mage tried to Blink frost nova then ragebait
But The whole forums resisted
You’re cooked

If that’s the case, shame on them.

But having been 1 shot by this exploit on several different characters while trying to do sparks or just simply being around the area, I know how annoying it is.

You think I care what you believe? Think again.

The op has a colorful history to put it diplomatically, and absolutely deserves to get roflstomped by the same lowbies he´s been mercilessly terroriziong for years. End of discussion.

Isimply have no sympathy for gankers, or obvious trolls. sorry not sorry.

brah, it was in rextroy video - such things happened forever and it’s just world pvp where you can obliterate people with various pvp potions, engi items and whatnot.

Precisely those who are using this bug in places like Undermine are NOT “newbies”

And anyone who wants to continue “terrorizing” lows, as you said, can continue doing so with a twink.

Dude i was chilling in my farovite inn ,after defending the auction house. And this abuser ganked me, And i was in full Season 2 pvp gear.

Yeah that’s just scaling, nothing new honestly
Level sub5 mages were able to oneshot max levels with a frostbolt at some point iirc

quite a claim to call someone a ganker

There are only two things to do in this game at low level and that is:

  • leveling (which you’re not doing if you’re stalking as a low level character in a capital city)
  • abusing blizzard scaling (which you likely are doing in the scenario turiel suggested)

So when I see a low level character not leveling, they’re probably abusing the scaling and honestly that to me sounds like something a ganker would do.
