I believe I was abducted!! - Guild Wars Forums

Me and a party were just going to Lions Arch, We were fighting the undead, and suddenly, as I was walking my character was rising, in about a half a minute I was so high, the ground started to blur, and the sky textures got messed up, I was a real help to the party when I was making 50-60 hits with my bow from up there, My party member will come online tonight, and send me the screenshots he took, because you can really see the height from down there, It was amazing!

$hade. · May 28, 2005, 08:44 PM // 20:44

Its happened to me before on the Frost gate mission

Bash · May 28, 2005, 09:17 PM // 21:17

That happened one time to me in Regant Valley. I was trying to get to Fort Ranik (post searing) when a large mob of charrs came through that little valley before that large aqueduct. We all died, and we were resurrected at the thing. Well, I noticed there was only 3/4 people in my party. I started running forward, when then I saw my mage running about 60 ft in the air straight towards the charr that just killed us. Soon, he died again. It was quite an odd glitch that I'm sure happened to a few others also.

When your that far up arrows can hit max 200 with no skill.

Vindictive · May 28, 2005, 10:03 PM // 22:03

So in the equation to calculate damage from arrows does the person with the high ground have an advantage, like real life?

Arrows have a range like 23-32, but when your higher the more damage it does.

This same thing happened to one of my henchmen on more then one occasion. Here are a few screenshots of it, its not as impressive as it seems.

Tavenlen · May 29, 2005, 01:42 AM // 01:42

It happens to henchmen all the time -- something to do with the pathing AI, I would guess.

I've never heard it happening to a player before though. Score one for the bad guys!

Antilles · May 29, 2005, 05:10 AM // 05:10

This is a bug they definetly should not fix

crow_killer · May 29, 2005, 05:50 AM // 05:50

yes my hench started floating up in the sky after he died....I can't remember where it was but atleast we all know he now is in a better place up above
