So, when is VPR getting nerfs? (Frontline)

"I know there is. Believe me I know, I've had entire ranked seasons ruined by a couple of those—that were fortunately banned."


It was one player where I have noticed it and it happened all the time when I got them in a match, does not matter if they were on the opponents team or in my team.

"- "ignoring animation delay", what did exactly happen and how? And is it always the same person consistently doing it?"
My english is not that good, but I'll try to explain, it felt like they did not really care about their animation delay, its like they were attacking faster than everyone else

"- "heal/purifying themselves once under specific HP thresholds": ok, but what do you exactly mean by that again? How can you be able to measure that consistently, on the same person as well every time they take damage? Every damage burst they'll take is different, forgive me for really having a hard time imagining how you can even take measure of this?"
Basically, they never went below 70-80% HP unless they had no MP left, even if they did not need to heal constantly, it always happened, it didn't really feel human, I don't know how to explain it, as if they had a program running, that heals them each time they fall below HP X or insta purify when they get stunned/debuffed

"- "insta switching on low HP target" can also be so many things. So what you describe sounds definitely sus added back to back, but each of those elements on their own isn't exactly conclusive of anything either."
Them switching was just extreme fast and it happened all the time, I don't think any human can react that perfectly, I've never seen that at anyone else. As if they had a program running, if enemies are near by, attack player X with lower HP and I even saw them switching back, like there was 2 people one had less hp, they switched, then the other had less, they switched again and repeat, I hope you get it what I mean

I was only checking that one person doing that, so I noticed those patterns, I didn't see that happening with other players, which was very suspicious when I took a closer look at that one person doing that

Just on this, that really depends on what job they were and what actions. Also, were they under the effect of Dervish? Viper in LB? Bard with Fantasia? Ninja with Huton? All of those lower recast times and they will attack faster than you/others around them. So it would really depend on what jobs and how consistent was it. For ninja, they can go Huton into another ninjitsu, to make Huton available again when their ninjitsu is recharged, so they could easily spam it for each time they are attacking you. Same with Dervish, if it's initial engagement and the fights are not prolonged.

I know there are cheats out there. I dont think its as widespread as people believe. I've only ever seen one person moving around freely, when they were getting monk lb'd and should have been in animation lock.
