Snipers have no pull ability nor is there an item that lets you pull others. Are you sure it wasn't a Shadow/Sin that pulled you then they used Blackout/Whatever the Shadow counterpart is to immediately go into stealth before you could see them?

PoliteAssasin Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Just the other day me and a friend witnesses a marauder use intercede to an ally, in the lowbies. Not only is that a level 50 ability, but its exclusive to juggs/guards, not sents and maras. I thought I was just imagining it until someone told me they saw it too.

Yeah I've also seen wierd stuff, like in a Huttball match where a Vanguard Force Leaped to me. I was like '...wut?'

Vratza Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 (edited) Powertechs have a pull and tanks can jump to also. I would guess the mirror for the pubs would have them also. This is something that I have not seen (yet) is a toon using skills they dont have. I will keep my eyes open for this and if I see it will say something here.

TalonKorr Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Just pointing this out here. A sniper wouldn't want to pull you. They're ranged, and they want to keep you there. You were probably knocked back by somebody behind you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nitromonger Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Well he was holding a gun, and when I asked in Chat my teammates said Vanguards can't jump, but can pull. Tank Vanguards CAN jump, your teammates were incorrect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clubdeeko Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Well he was holding a gun, and when I asked in Chat my teammates said Vanguards can't jump, but can pull. Vanguard tanks have a gap closer like force leap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enexemander Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 He wasn't hacking. You had something happen that you don't understand. The sniper didn't pull you (and wouldn't want to even if he could). You either got knocked back or a tank pulled you while he was jumping down. Just something to note- Teams with marauders aren't speed hacking, they have predation. Operatives have a sprint. Etc etc. I don't even think there IS a hack to give your class abilities it shouldn't have. Speed hacks are made by tricking the server into thinking you're somewhere you're not. That's a very simple manipulation. Giving a sniper a pull is several steps above that. Here's what actually happened (and something I do on my assassin all the time) - The tank pulled you while he was in midair and you landed in front of the sniper. End of story.

End of story. dont insult me, ive done my share of warzones. i know what i saw. i know who was around. it was a sniper.... he targeted me, and used a pull mechanic which hurled me off ledge toward him.. it had a mechanical sound like a vangaurds pull so no there was no assasin, or jugg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bravo, Sir. if u fine gentlemen read all the posts you will find ive already stated there was no one remotely close to us.. it was a sniper on one side of the flame to the side and me on the other.. he pulled me about 5 yards forward and off my ledge i know what happend, i know what class he was, and i know there were no other classes near us.. especially no powertechs (again the pull had a mechanal sound) u all can argue all u want all i needed to know was if it were possible or if there was some item in game i didnt know about.... now i know he was hacking and i will be filing a report which i dont generally do but seeing as to egregious nature of this hack and the already questionable situations revolving his rated team my decision is easy Edited January 21, 2013 by wwkingms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite a few of the assault rifles look like sniper rifles and now thanks to the cartel market, you have VGs in sniper looking outfits. Just thought I'd ask because it sounds to me like more of a case of mistaken identity than an actual hack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zican Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 (edited) I know you really think you saw the sniper pull you, but Enexemander is right. Powertech was probably falling from one of the platforms as he pulled you. It's common in huttball when someone goes from one plane to another that they become completely invisible to your screen for a few seconds. You landed next to the sniper and the powertech probably landed in the pit. There is no item or hack that would allow a sniper to pull anyone, not to mention no one else on your team seemed to notice being pulled by a sniper. If he was willing to use this hacked pull on you, then he would be more than willing to use it on ball carriers and such. Don't report some random guy for hacking when he didn't do anything wrong. Also this assuming you actually knew the guy you thought did this was actually a sniper and wasn't a vanguard that looked like one.

However, there is no evidence to the contrary either, so it's entirely possible that you're correct. I for one would need tangible proof before believing it though.
