Game Mechanics: Water Mechanics in Guk

Aesop · #1 12-21-2011, 01:11 AM

Pathing is easily exploitable in Guk, the pathing is so messed up they literally walk back and forth in the water (reference Lovely's screenshot of the water in front of EE).
I witnessed some people using the exploit on the spiders (in the waterways near giant heart spider), then experienced it myself after I fell off the walkway on the way to zone with a train hot on my heels. I tabbed out thinking I was fucked, and after a minute or so I tab back in - almost out of air with the entire train running back and forth on top of the water.

Naturally no one noticed it in BETA.

I'm more than happy to help test this. Cyren

Easily fixed, but it has more to do with a lack of a node in the spot you described than the water map. You might want to edit the title to pathing so the right people read the post.

Cool, thanks Uthgaard I will.

I can back this up too. When u zone into Upper Guk and make the first right, that stretch of water there is the same way as described above. I've stumbled across this on accident myself. You can literally pull a frog there and it will just run back and forth in front of you.

I wonder how many people have exploited this. Sounds like a great way to solo exp.

A couple people who did got the smackdown yesterday, i'd be willing to bet the king is an easy solo near the EE spawn. Anyone wanna see if it works? Lovely?
