    That's not intended :p
  2. That's not an exploit it is a rhino-plasty
    Sorry

    Edit

    Not good the game allow this but let's being honest that won't help you as much as a WS inside a spawn like it was possible before or on hight with a large unpredicted arc of fire.

    I hate it as well but there is a perfectly safe route to travel on the map where you are safe from vehicles which they could have used and I'm going to assume there were transports available since it's extremely common for pugs(of all factions) to grab transports, jet across the map with 1 person or for people to run half way across the map instead of redploying.

    Most of the time I see people get run over, regardless of vehicle type it's because they were being dumb.

    Why I don't like playing vs Eldar? Because like many EU players I have ~200ms lag to USA servers. It doesn't seem to bother me while playing vs other factions mostly (although sometimes shit happens there too).
    But what I see when playing VS Eldar: You can't win melee RPS against them because they ignore it due to lag. As such I see warlocks boldly charging a group of five enemies and killing every last one of them solo. How? I see that he has no shields, I strike him four times with narthecium in the back while he is meleeing others. That alone should've killed him, on top of stacking full poison, but he emerges victorious not suffering an ounce of damage to his health and not even being poisoned. Without him using healing at all. Only in rare cases where lag temporarily subsides I can engage in proper RPS and win. Also due to lag I see wonderful things like DA strafing in circle and ignoring all melee hits that should connect, while gunning me down. Or strafe running to me while firing Catapult and dodging all bolter rounds. Swooping hawks take no damage while flying with 200ms lag because you either see them teleporting around or your shots are just plainly ignored because you missed. And same goes for Eldar vehicles. When I had a EU match I downed Eldar Transport with GC pretty fast. With lag I was barely able to scratch it. It seems that many hits from Grav weaponry just stop registering with that lag. If it's all about lag, then why it's about Eldar? Because they benefit most from it.
    And sadly as been noted, majority of most vocal Eldar players are worst when it comes to proper social behaviour.

    Do you know whats obnoxious to fight against?

    Having a JPA slam into you non stop, grav guns, VSB, flaming insta kill auto cannons, apoths having the borderline equivalent to necron resurrection orbs, having your original healing ability and spell dual effect being stolen and given to chaos after it had been in game for a while, nothing but non stop knee jerk nerfs since launch and being at the end of the que for fixes, items and cosmetics.

    Eldar could literally be non function and people would still complain, in fact they did for months after the faction was introduced.

    Multiple classes are just flatout bad and propped up by the good ones.

    I like that guy. He keeps demonstrating that this kind of population isn't limited to Eldar only :D

    Careful, they will accuse you of poor communication skills.
