• Describe the issue you are experiencing:Hello guys!

Theres a video of an “animation canceling” hatchet guide, where you can hit 3 times faster than a simple light attack, but thats not the main problem.

NOT THE VIDEO MAKER IS THE EXPLOITER, THIS CANCELING ANIMATION WAS IN THE ALPHA TOO, THE PROBLEM IS PEOPLE USING THAT WITH MOUSE SCRIPT AND IT MAKES THEM 10x faster than average player.

Heres the video: New World - Secret Hatchet Animation Cancel Guide for Maximized DPS both PvE & PvP - YouTube

It’s work like that: You need the “Aimed Throw” talent and it’s replace your blocking with a throw animation on your right click then you have to zoom in and press left mousebutton for a light attack then instantly the right mousebutton for animation cancel and you have to repeat it to cancel one with another one and hit 3 times faster. Basically it’s a left click - right click - left click - right click “rota”.

The problem is that now players are using mouse scripts to improve their clicking speed (left click - right click - left click - right click) so they can hit like 4-5 times in a second, and with that scripts players just oneshotting each others in wars or deleting bosses.

You can see their characters are going madman with that animation canceling, its looks like they speedhacking or sum.

Please do something about it or everyone gonna play like that.

This has been in the game since Alpha test and was reported multiple times.
It is nothing but simple animation cancel just like people roll dodging in light weight load sheathing weapons cancelling “stand up” animation.
All games have animation cancel. If someone decides to use macro for this its on them and that shouldnt be allowed.
IF you do it manually like you should it increases Skill Ceiling and that my friend not a lof of people can pull off. I have been playing this game for over 3 years and I see this as another Skill cap level WITHOUT the macro.
Thank you for sharing this as it brings more people in.

EDIT: Yes this video is from me, enjoy watching

Yes brother, I wrote it in the last row that not you are the exploiter, the video is just for the people to know what I’am talking about, the problem is when people are using it with some mouse scripting.

100% and exploit and needs removed. if you think even for a second that this is a skill gap your delusional. its on 1 weapon so not everyone can do it or learn it and it flat out mean you win any melee fight with the damage output this can cause.
