Default The Alter Ghost Bug

I'm absolutely certain that if you play tombs often you have encountered this bug. You get to HoH, your team is coming out ahead and you try to cap. And find that the alter belongs to some other ghostly, and that he is nowhere to be found. The offending team the balls in the back of their base and runs around until the timer runs out. This has been around for a good while now. WHY hasn't Anet done something about it? I actually heard one person state that he didn't think it was a bug at all, but something Anet did in order to discourage alter maps from being rushed at the last 2 minutes. If anyone has ANY information on this please post here.

Yes thats annoying as hell. They cap and run him off the alter and go hide him. I wish ANET would fix this, as it is a huge bug. When the ghostly caps the alter, he should stay within a certian radius of it. say like if you were standing in the middle, he shouldnt be able to go further than the aggro bubble, not all the way back to your res shrine and hidden behind a wall

In the latest frog talk, he indicated it would be fixed soon. Go check the frog talk post in riverside inn section.

My guild faced a other bug, we were on the winning hand and I wanted to put our ghostly on the altar with 2 minutes left, but at that very moment our ghost decided to fly or something and he was nowhere to be found.

This happened in the Courtyard map for me. We would have won if the ghost would have stayed. I hope they fix it soon.

Yes happened to me as well. We were creaming 2 teams, had our ghost in the middle of the alter for last like 3 minutes. Thought maybe we didnt notice the capping alter message, but when we lost, figured out one team hid their ghost.

Even Korean Guilds use this exploit. That's how Guilds like the "No1" Korea Guild hold the Altar for like 3 hours in a row. I've seen them do it personally.
