Thread: Being Tracked in HIPS

When is this game breaking bug going to be fixed? When are burgs that use this 10 minute cooldown, going to be allowed to use this without being tracked in it and pulled out?

It's bad enough burgs move at tops 88% run speed, and can't outrun trackers, but to be removed from hips because of trackers is getting ridiculous. Fix it Turbine, you fixxed bag swapping that was any sort of counter to this ridiculous problem.

Fix it.

A paying customer.

Wow.........

Should be untrackable for 10s.

Simple solution. =)

^ this, although I'd hope this went for wargs too, as I've had many deaths from hipsing and being tracked.

Agreed.

Most egregious is that you can even get tracked with non-stealth tracking while in HIPS. I've had a couple rank 9 wargs use the track when they saw I or another burg was about to HIPS. Ninja tracks ftl.

Simple fix to both is to make tracking a HIPSed/Disappeared burg/warg/ranger (for completeness sake ) return an invalid target error, cancel the track, talisman on CD.

Really?

Strange, my Burg moves at 100% speed when he uses HiPS.

But then my Burg is only level 55, so maybe they get slower as the level. :/

Hips lasts 10s at 100% run speed, your normal creep moves at 100% run speed, up to and including 120% run speed. After the duration of hips has ended at tops you can move at 88% run speed.

This along with a lot of moors related bugs should have been fixed ages ago, keep campaigning, maybe one day....

Yes, please. This should be changed.

As should ninja tracking.

Burgs may not be as great in the moors as they once were, but This isn't one of the reasons.

I don't think it's game breaking. I also don't think it's a bug.

Because stealth classes need to be buffed right?

Because being tracked in a skill that says in the tooltip, stealth is unbreakable doesn't need to be fixed?

then people should not be able to map in stealth

and it takes about 10s just for a person to show up on track after you track them

Unless you are a warg. Wargs can run faster than most classes even in stealth. I had a warg in stealth with no buff's outrunning my reaver with the DP run buff (not charge tho lol.)

If they weren't trackable in HIPS then it would have to apply to wargs as well... And I don't think wargs need any buffs.

while at it, give all classes a HIPS skill, so you can get a taste and lose a lot of points to people that like to gank without taking risks and have them magically disappear without chances of taking them out of stealth.

Why not just combine every class so nothing dies?
