Apparently it's against the rules to post an exploit on the live forums so I've had to revise this post. There are several PvP related exploits that are considered by many to be game breaking and it seems to be destroying what is left of the fun in this game, please fix these exploits and those who encounter them please make as many tickets as you find people exploiting and bring and end to some of this mess.
Without going into detail there are certain consumables you shouldn't be able to use in PvP that you can and they're quite powerful, there are certain classes that have features you can use & abuse when you shouldn't be able to, client side hacks to manipulate the game for many purposes making you nearly invulnerable and so on.

1) Unkillable GWF. Just the combo of exploits along with the abuse of powers, like using dailies more than encounters, and going unstoppable more than not, and sprinting endlessly. I ran into a guy like this. Just the normal GWF is hard enough to kill without going black and purple and immune to damage whenever they are about dead. Several times he did this, along with wizards on his team too.
2) Perma Stealth Rogues. The stealth is bad enough, but along with a cloud of steel that has many, many more than 12 charges... Well yeah you can guess how fun that is.
The good thing is that some guilds will get a name for this. I know that when I go into PvP if I see a certain guild tag I just leave. When you get all 5 cheaters in there is is just lame, and why let them farm me for points. I was in a game with just 3 of them and it was not so bad. They always rush mid and ignore their point, trying to pressure you and then go back for their point later. As soon as we all met them at mid and held them off, they all quit out. Of course there was a bot on their team so maybe that is why they quit.
But there are times when playing when you obviously know there is something wrong going on. Getting hit from places that you should not be getting hit from. Abilities and powers being used too often or out of class. The dreaded black and purple effect where players go immune to damage and run around while their buddies kill you. Impossible to catch is not all that OP to begin with, it only makes a rogue go damage immune if used from stealth. However, when a non rogue is using it, or a rogue gets damage immune when not stealthed, there is clearly something wrong.
There are a lot of bugs in PvP right now and a lot of them seemed to emerge after alchemy came into being. Honestly there should not be any consumable use in PvP, period. Potions are for sissies, but you know something is very wrong when you see someone get a full health bar immediately, nothing in the game can do that but a health stone... Thanks for the pay to win in PvP Cryptic... While I am at it, why is there even BoE gear in this game? Sure I can see it for crafted items, sub par "wellfare" purple gear, blue gear... but Tier Epic content gear and PvP gear should never be BoE... period. There should be no actual market items you can profit, in the terms of astral diamonds, in end game PvP or PvE in terms of actual gear. Item enchantments, enhancements, etc. Pets, that that sort of thing. That is what should drive the AH. It is pretty lame when you can roll into the AH as soon as you hit level 60, spend 180k AD and be in good enough gear to run anything in the game. Thanks once again Cryptic, for the Pay To Win cash model. It is pretty clear what NWO is about. It is just another PWE cash shop with I win buttons and a dev team that cannot stay ahead of the hackers and botters.
The AH exploit with the gateway was amateur at best, lets face it. The best things in CoH happened after it was sold to Paragon... Any chance that can happen to Neverwinter?
If you get killed by a perma-stealth rogue then you might as well quit playing pvp. I have never been killed by one of these builds and I laugh every time I get into a match with one. Not even if they are geared and have enchants are they effective for anything. It is easy to find them by combing the tower node and once you are next to them you can initate combat which causes them to lose stealth. They are worthless builds and do nothing to help their teams, but of course low skilled players like yourself come to the forums and cry about it, not because it's an OP problem but you just plain suck at pvp.
Unless they nuke you with 16k daggers then finish you off from stealth not to mention a 1 shot SE still. A perma stealth can do more dmg then some others there aren't really gimped at all and is a bull lame class that ruins any sort of PvP.
I believe the immunity of some people can be explained by:
[Soulforged Enchantment]
● Lesser: When below 25% Health upon receiving damage 2s damage immunity once every 60s.
● Normal: When below 25% Health upon receiving damage 3s damage immunity once every 60s.
● Greater: When below 25% Health upon receiving damage 4s damage immunity once every 60s.
● Perfect: When below 25% Health upon receiving damage 5s damage immunity once every 60s
This would also explain the shadowy purple effect that you can see on the target during immunity.
I am not saying this solves it all, because i've seen some weird stuff aswell, but this could very well be mistaken for an exploit. We can only hope that third-party-softwares with hostile codes and other in-game exploits are sorted out ASAP.

Conq. GF 2-shot is another cheesy, broken class and build.
Permastealth Rogues are bad Rogues that don't know how to properly play so the resort to cheese and another broken build.
There are still a good amount of bugs and exploits in this game, but IMO, Rejuv potions is not one of them. EVERYONE has been able to use Rejuv potions since this game launched 2 and a half months ago. If it was an exploit, then Cryptic would have fixed it by now and/or banned people who used them. They didn't and they haven't, so it's legit. It's just super cheesy when a Sent. GWF or GF uses it because it makes them go from super tanky to unkillable.
I have seen Soulforged proc back to back to back without cooldown on certain GWFs. I don't know how they do it, but they can.
Contact GM or Report Bug in-game with: Shard, The exploiters name, accountname, what happend, where it happend, what time it happend.
Then they will for sure look into it and see if they can spot anything fishy in the logs. It may seem alot of work for no reward, but believe me if everyone took the time to report an exploiter when spotted, you would soon start to see a change.

The exploits are cared about but information on exactly how certain actions are caused and/or abused would speed up the correction process greatly. Please send any details pertaining any exploits in through the In Game Bug Report Features, Support Ticket or send a message to a Community Manager or Moderator and it will be investigated and resolved.
In the mean time I am afraid topics which directly discuss exploiting are not fit for forum discussion but again if you have any additional information on any PvP or general game exploits please report it.
