Hi whichever GM sees this.

Bit of an odd request but ive been in the E&E channel over the last 4 nights without any respose let alone progress.

Id like to show you a messed up mechanic in game which i think could lead to possible bug abuse, its concerning movement speed. I dont want to elaborate due to obvious reasons.

Reason i think this needs to be looked at and not right-nowed is because i reported it on the US servers when i was on merlin and i must have contacted the special needs department as he couldnt see anything wrong... (which clearly wasnt the case in my eyes). I ts not exactly easy to word how it works and what the result is, it really needs to be experienced in-game.

Please could any GM get in contact with me here either by PM or post so i can arrange a time to show/explain this "bug" to see if its intended/can be fixed/cant be fixed.

Cheers

water surface bug is easy to explain, so I guess it's not that

over weekends there is little chance of getting hold of a gm, and i would recomend if you think its a bug problem then rightnow it as thats what the gms will say anyways.

The water bug is where you go into water and you move at a set rate no matter how much damage you have taken so if your on 5% hp you will move as if you have 100%.

Thats the bug its also an exploit so if someone your fighting purposfully dives into the water to get away from you then screenshot right now and let the peeps at goa sort it out.

The other reason i dont use the IRC channel because of being whined at for not helping people out with problems that are beyond my control. So if you see me online (look at E&E post then ill help out) else sorry but i dont use the irc channel.

So what if they dive to get away from your arrows? Or go up and down to avoid you?

It isnt water bug... Tho i assume it can be used in water.
