the problem with the hacking in siege is it's hard to prove unless its the fly hack which is rather obvious yet even with fraps people don't get banned...
The godsight is what drives me insane when I'm in hide off to the side by some tree in the middle of nowhere and a mage books it to me and Tstorms my exact location with no HoTs/pets/YB. Or as I'm sneaking along the side trying to get to a gate and people, obviously not wanting anyone to know they are hacking, just stop and stare in my characters direction and turn facing my character the whole way obviously being able to see me but can't exactly prove it.

thats mostly coming from people who I have screenshots of having me targeting in hide from like forever away

It's annoying to have to talk about siege for this but it's not like you can see other players hacking through sardo can you?

One of the more obvious answers (and probably the one you're most likely to get) is that the guild had a scout who reported your location to the mage/ other player.
In a world of black, white, and grey... I'd be bright friggin' purple. M/P on Reni.

since playing my rogue more in siege, i have had the wierd thought something wasnt right with people finding me in hide. So i took my 70 mage and put him somewhere, and had my rogue test the distance at which you could see a rogue of equal level. Dont have Yawaka, dont use pets, and dont use health pots in siege (figure if i die i die meh well) So knowing this range i used that in siege as my measuring stick. Now i also know about the eyes of true knowledge cause on said mage they hae been one of my best items. I look for those first. Now one night we ran into this mage, m/p mind you just like mine, and i would come sneaking up from WELL off normal view distance. I get to double the range i tested and he turns around and Tstorms me. While i know there are legit ways to find rogues, i do think there are some out there using something else. Also in this group there was only 2 sieging the other was a p/k.

I never thought i would agree with rogues but i think SOMETIMES there is something fishy going on.

Ahh! That sounds ever so familiar. We have had the same problem repeatedly from a single player in a guild we have faced many times. He had even got to our crystal without doing a single point of damage to any gate.

We faced the same guild a couple of days back & it was a clean & fun siege with the cheat absent.

I now wonder if it was the guild/person you refer to. I do hope so as that person was the only blatant cheat I can remember seeing for quite a few months.

This thread was entertaining first dozen times it was posted. Maybe two dozens for those easily amused. Now it is just lame.
