- What is your character name in New World: NobleKangaroo
- What server/world did you experience your issue on: US East - Calnogor
- Describe the issue you are experiencing: Players (the player in this video is Stream Sniper) are still able to reach the rocks above Ambusti / Scorched Mines and are grieving players running around there. They are either using a new exploit to get on top, or are staying there and logging out so they can remain in the area. The last patch (1.2) changed how fire staff’s Burn out, great axe’s Charge, and rapier’s Fleche work, however the players that were already in this spot have not been forcibly moved to a town or outpost, or have found another way to get to these spots. I don’t know why any of these rocks even have collision, they should really only be “visual rocks” and not have collision.
- Is this a bug or an exploit: Either, depending on how you want to classify it. It’s a bug, in that the area was already made to be inaccessible and the players are exploiting this bug to get to a spot they should not be in.
- (if a bug) How did the issue effect your gameplay: Can’t retaliate as this is a now inaccessible place on the map.
- (if a bug) Were you able to recover from the issue: Nope.
- (if a bug) Please include a screenshot or video of the issue that you have experienced: Ambusti exploit - YouTube
- What are the steps to reproduce the issue as you experienced: Follow along with the video posted on the New World forums.
Simple fix is to simply deal 4000 damage per second ticks to players in the area, like the Brimstone Sands area currently does when you cross that border.
@Luxendra - I hate to ping you on this, but there’s been multiple posts here (among other places like Reddit) about this, players have been reported in game, yet nothing seems to be done about it. I hope you can bring some attention to this. It’s been an ongoing issue on our server, among others, for over a month now.
