Player did not take any damage for several PvP encounters vs 4

  • Sir Mazh

    Hi guys,
    Got the unpleasant moment of caughting a guy, a singler player that did not die, did not take any damage from sword, pistol and blunderbuss.
    First encounter I boarded his sloop alone, he was on the wheel and did not saw me. I placed my aim at his head and fired my blunderbuss, he did not die and let go the wheels. I hit him 2 more times while he panicked and tried to get me with sword, 3 blunderbuss shots at close range, all hits and he does not die, kills me with sword.
    Next encounter, I dropped a gunpowder keg on his ship without him seeing, my mate immediately shoots the keg, exploding and killing me, the target, as always, didn't die.
    Next encounter he boards our ship and camps the captain's quarters. We 4 camp the door and pick shots at him with pistol and blunderbuss, all 4 hiting some but never killing him. He comes out sword in hand, chest open to all our shots and charges killing us one by one with sword while we run away, shoot and sword him too. Did not die again.
    Next encounter after we started reporting him on SoT discord and preparing to tape the next encounters, he comes again only boat shooting, both of ships are sunked and we all fight under water, despite 4 shooting at him again, he only dies when a shark bites him after killing 1 of our own with sword.
    One of my crew members whispers his xbox namertag telling about reports.
    More encounters followed after that and now he always dies with gun shots like every encounter We ever had and saw on SoT's Stream. Everything looks normal now, he got afraid of getting taped?

    I got killed and robbed sometimes in SoT, I get killed in many games. I'm not here mad because me and my crew got killed several times, I'm not in rage or something like that.
    I just saw and have 100% that guy did not take damage. Don't know if it was some bug, or cheats on his part. But that guy did not take damage for several encounters. 100% sure.

    His namertag is [mod removed] and we played around 3Am GMT to 5Am GMT
    Is there a way to effectively report a cheater to Rare Dev's?
    Me and my crew all reported him to Xbox App.

    Could have something to do with the lag everyone has been experiencing with this stress test. Everything you do is server side so it would make sense. Maybe even on the other players side you were ever shooting your gun because of this lag.

    Unfortunately it was just the lag you were experiencing in the game. I was lag walking all over.

    @sir-mazh Could all come down to badluck and latency because of the scale test. I my self got shot allot of times but i've survived plenty of shots m8. Because of distance and not every bullet hitting me from the blunderbuss. (just a few) what am i saying is.. It could all just be massive luck along with the latency.

    I've shot somebody with the blunderbuss up close and the player not dying.. Then i swung him with a sword and he still died..
    And as the people said above me.. Better quickly remove that name m8 it's against the forum rules.

    And if you want to report someone i advice you make a ticket via "support"

    Ahoy Pirates,

    Apologies for the late reaction to this tag, we have had our hands full with a bunch behind the scenes.

    As a few members have mentioned, we do not allow 'naming and shaming' of users within the Sea of Thieves forum, for any reason.

    And as such, I've removed the gamertag mentioned in your original post.

    If you have something you believe needs to be reported, please do so via the Microsoft support page or Xbox Live support.

    Thank you all for your understanding in this matter.

    @davejc64 no griefing on our part mate, he was the one coming at us alone, I simply jumped off my boat to board him as he came closer.

    second, ye could be lag, but i wasn't the only one shooting, there were 4 including me shooting at one guy at the same time and he does not die. kills us all with sword despite we swording him too. No bananas eaten. Also don't think surviving a gunpowder keg at 2 meters from him while I die is lag too.
    Don't think it's lag. Suddenly after whispers about report, he started to always dies normally.

    Don't think it's lag, just a lone cheater coming against 4

    @LogansDadToo thanks for the link mate, will see what I can do.
