SE's Stance on Pillars in Dark Devices Area?

[vpc]

I searched and couldn't find a topic about this; anyone know SE's take on standing atop the pillars in this area and attacking everything without being hit? This is the same exact exploit people used in AK with the tree.

Here is a screenshot I took of it:



Already reported it, just curious to see others viewpoints since this was incredibly annoying to watch haha

You reported the location/effects of the pillars, or you reported the player for standing there?

Both, it's clearly an exploit knowing you won't take damage from enemies IMO.

It's not like they used some illegal 3rd party hack utility to put themselves there. They used the terrain to make the fight more advantageous. Look at call a duty? or any other pvp style game where you have to stay alive to win. I do not see anything wrong with this and if you tend to play PVP in this game get used to using the terrain to stay alive. That is what it is there for. Reporting this only makes the game more vanilla and stifles ppl's ability to show ingenuity. Man oh man.

Is this pvp? No, and please never bring up Call of Shitty again..at least bring up CS if you want to make a point. Why was the exploit in AK fixed if this is not an issue then?

I don't think this game ever had terrain advantages

The game is designed such that you are clearly not supposed to be immune from all attacks. This is obviously a glitch ("bug") in the way the terrain is designed. And in taking advantage of this, you violate the User Agreement 2.1 "you may not take advantage of game system bugs and exploits during gameplay".
