Lord Giradda wishes this thread to be closed. Weapons, name calling, and cheating are all encouraged. Not that this is cheating, but if it was, Mills Lane would allow it.

You, sir, are a liar. There is no possible way that you can do this with a 43 Guardian, because 43 Guardians do not have Guardian Leap... it's a level 50 skill.

He can still jump to an enemy, force push them, and jump to them again!

and yet the stealth player still has to come out of stealth to receive the ball, and im willing to bet with them having been in stealth they're capable of being cc'd.

BUt it's too hard to counter a strategy they use over and over the entire game! D:

using taktics in a warzone with class skills is NOT.
You all still don't realize that this wasn't intented as a way to score when Huttball was released. Otherwise why would fire be there if it can just simply be bypassed. Think about it. The way the coarse is set up. It was never intended to have a pit to ledge quick score pass and I am willing to bet if it becomes the norm there will be a change to show we are all right in our belief that it is wrong.

They do have Force Leap though. Which is a level 2 skill.

When you end up with too much pressure to one side. It is often difficult to counter because you now have members of your team stuck keeping the goal area clear and no one to spare to camp the other teams goal line. It is a one sided advantage is what I am saying. So it isn't really fair. You are not the better team when you do this. You are just the better cheaters. Except it and keep doing it. I just leave when I see it done. Even on my own team. I do not agree with this method of scoring.

It's not exploiting but it's extreme cheese.

Once the strategy gets more rampant and/or ranked pvp gets introduced I fully expect BW to tweak hutball so that NPC stealth breaking scans periodically sweep the inzone.
