So people will understand before reading a lot of pages
It's not a bug, it's an exploit used by stealth classes.

While stealth bugs exists (people remain stealthed even after death), this is not one of them.
The door was armed from the other side - a known exploit. The player should be reported.

On a different note to all the stealth lovers out there - not all classes have stealth detection!

Unless Juggernauts can stealth and phase through doors, I'm pretty sure the Jugg that came through the blown door and popped his AoE Mezz was the culprit. He respawned on the wrong side, which is a separate exploit or bug. The assassin didn't do it. (Didn't even seem like he had enough time in the video to do it after popping vanish.)

I had this happen the other night. We were against our server's best premade that made it all the way when they attacked, and now we were defending the door. I died, and respawned in the bridge area. After figuring out that I was stuck there and would have to most likely sit there until time ran out, I tried to plant to see if it would work. (we were going to lose even if we did make the first door, I was just curious, not trying for a win) It did, but was defused quickly. Pretty soon most of the team had respawned on the bridge side. They started to plant, but by that time, they were getting defused almost immediately since they wiped most our team.

Long story short, I quit that WZ w/ 4 mins left because neither side was going to get to PvP anymore unless they let the door blow.

Although it sucks to have the Door blown w/o a way to stop planting, but its not much fun on the other side twiddling your thumbs either.

No idea what caused the bug, but hopefully they fix it soon.

It not a stealth class that did that it was some one that died and was on the wrong side of the door happen like 1% of the time a person dies and ends up behind the door you cant see them at all they plant the bomb there team mates stop you from removing the bomb. you can even see the jug that did it as he comes from the door when only one sorc goes in.

THEY ARE PLANTING THE BOMB WHILST IN STEALTH

Wasnt so hard to understand was it? Thats what the problem is. He had no idea he was there despite looking at the door. It doesnt matter if he has "anti stealth abilities" or not, the fact is stealth is meant to be broken when you do something apart from run in stealth. Do you think the world is flat?

The bug that needs to be fixed is players respawning at the wrong location.
Whoa.. I see it now, yeah because of teh Sin getting pulled from stealth after the bomb was planted it looked like the Sin planted it but yeah there's a Jugger that comes out from behind the door near the end.
