Maw of madness camp exploit

Hello,

It have been few times I see Destruction folks (not sure that Order can reproduce), in the scenario Maw of Madness, take the orbs and go back to there camp and manage to get back up with there NPC.
Then they just wait out for a win by taking the orbs again and again.
We don't have any way to counter that, 'cause NPC champs etc...

Screenshots

I would fix it with pleasure, if only I had a bugtracker entry instead of a forum post :'(

Wasn't sure were to put it, I've been here only for 3 or 4 weeks and didn't spend too much time on the forum.
I will write a bug report, and look after its resolve as you so pedanti-kindly ask me :'(

Thanks

btw, in your screenshots, they are not in the safe zone, you could have just walked there and killed em :)

Indeed. That's actually one level below the safezone. I've seen Order do the same and Destro players get confused and stay back, despite the fact that you can just walk up the ledge below the respective camps.

Only reason i play that scenario is for that, easy points for more emblems and it's NOT an exploit.

If you can walk there then ANYONE can and you CAN be killed there so it's NOT an exploit.

I don't feel obliged to discuss any other factor involved in RoR scenario dynamics.

And that's extactly why I posted it here first. I didn't played this game for several years and can not remember exactly how things were meant to be.
But, well you can see how that worked for me.
I have a healer that won't event try to kill anything and an aeo dps that focus on close combat (BW) so most of the time I would have got some attention from the NPC.

Anyway just tryied to be helpfull and report something that feel weird and may not be wanted by the dev team, my apologies for that. Won't append again folks.

I am no dev, but i would say: No harm done. And secondly, it is better to ask aout such questions one to often than to ask one time to less. So ask freely so it can be adressed and discussed.
