still attacking while CLAOKED. Happened to me tonight outside of theed starport. I did a exploit report, but since Ive reported this before and NOTHING happens, maybe SOE are ignorning this blatant expolitation.


Nothing more frustrating than seeing lighting bolts and chokes coming from THIN AIR !!

Well they can attack while cloaked but cloak goes poof. They can always recloak..


Perhaps what your talking about is the notoriously annoying choke 'n cloak mythod?

No there is an exploit out there they can permacloak...sorta. They are invis to everyone and it does not use force up, but they are not "cloaked". YOu can ae and hit them still or look in your combat log and /target name and then you can fight back.

I used the lightning bolt/choke and cloak method and was immediately called an exploiter. I think people just don't expect the attack and then feel cheated when their assailant disappears faster than they can spot them. Never had the cloak bug on me where I can attack and remain cloaked, never seen anyone do that either. But apparently it happens.

It does, and it's easily repeatable.

Well don't worry to much about cloak its gonna get nerf soon so let them keep it, they knew it was gonna happen sooner or later....I mean using a force power while cloaked always seemed very odd to me....about time they did somthing about it.

Ok, i know of this. Don't have cloak myself and never tried it IG, but posting it here in the hopes that if it does work then the DEVs will fix asap.

Apparently you attack a npc factional turret, then once it starts hitting you run 32m away and cloak, then let it incap/db you, still whilst cloaked. When you clone you will still have the cloaked state, but without the power running so it cant be broken. You can attack this way.

Again, i have no way of knowing if this is true, as i saw someone talking about it IG, but jsut thought if it is, i'd get it "out there" to hurry a fix along.

it is in fact a bug, it can happen without even realizing it or trying to make it happen (i have no idea how to produce it and i dont WANT to know either), the Devs are working on fixing and nerfing it so cloakers will not be able to use any power and have a snare while cloaked...

please don't acuse every jedi of exploiting.... yes there is a cloak bug but i believe or it was supposed to get fixed.. there was a way to make it willingly.. but in some cases you could not tell that you did not decloak on attack... it could have been lag? if he is cloaked and attacks you but you are laging maybe by the time you catched up you were dead and didn't even see who it was and he was gone and cloaked again... doubtfull but still a posibility... but yeah it sucks when bugs get in the way...

i SWEAR you bounty hunters need to check your own back yard before looking into someone esles.


You ever hear of MAURA/AMARANTHA/MARIAM? (RL name Tom)


A BOUNTY HUNTER MCM and exploits timers like nobodys business. One of the BIGGEST cheaters in the game and youre going to blame an unknown jedi for exploiting when Maura a BOUNTY HUNTER is LEGENDARY at exploitation??


tell u what look under these names under search for the forums and you will see that there are bounty hunters who exploit just the same. NO different.
