Using The paladin exploit in Onsal is indeed cheating

[Reinhardt_Azureheim]

Something can work "as intended" and still be used unfairly. It would be easy to just remove the Cover effect when someone is taking a point, like how using a skill makes you lose the effect of Guard.

It's also a problem when I see my teammates say "we're losing, I'll switch to PLD and someone can come with me to cheese it" in order to force a win.

Then I suppose Christmas came early for you because that is exactly what they did.

PvP

In certain PvP duties, it was possible for players to interact with and take control of certain devices with little risk via the effect of Guardian used by a paladin. As this was an unintended use of the action, Guardian will no longer have an effect on targets interacting with an object.

Cover interaction is changed. See ya all in the "Reduce the largescale pvp damage reduction" soon my friends.
