hehe my Gf took these i don't know how it happened


i ment the title to say see thru sry guys lol but its close enough

what do you think? i see how it is possible that this proves the sin's having stealth abilities. reason for that is that this looks like either a) gfx card is overheated/glitchy or b) game coding glitched and showed sin's stealth skill effect on the barb (like how BM's sprint skill shows on mobs LOL)

I don't think so...
I mean, it might be a glitch.

It would be a glitch as a result of a mistake by either an upcoming new skill (content gets updated bit by bit overtime with PWI), or from something else that becomes transparent in-game (which sounds a bit unrealistic to me).

On the other hand it's more likely corrupt files (try verify) or faulty/outdated graphic drivers and/or card.

So does that mean this is one of the Psychic's abilities? To make you trip out?

that one is obviously a graphics card issue... (or a client in need of a verify)

the one here in this post smells strongly of the same thing you get with certain player skills, where it will copy the anim onto nearby players/mobs

It would be funny if we a sin in stealth mode still have his name and faction appears above him XD

Apparently GMs can go completely invisible (and unclickable etc etc). THAT is what I want. b:victory b:sin

That would bring the pvpers of this game to a whole new level of fail and cowardice. It's bad enough already we don't need it worse.

Give Assassins GM daggers while we're at it.

Of course, they are GMs. I believe someone also mentioned something about an instant teleportation ability.

Really, if the GMs were fully visible at all times, it would make a lot of things bothersome. Can you imagine 30+ people ganking the GM while they're attending to some poor fellow?

You people STILL rely on stuns/sleep and ganking to win fights. You are so weak I'd be bored. Yes this is my barb.

I actually fight my fights alone sir, I don't call an entire guild to come defend me while I trash talk safely from my safe zone. doing everything I complain and whine about on the forum.

WaffleChan - Sanctuary

Lol Zoe, sad as ever. "Im God, and youre the epitome of fail.' She makes these ever so bogus claims, like shes some ever powerful PVP god, yet remains blue name, talks garbage, and claims she never PKs. 'You'll never be worth my time to PK.' sad excuse of saying 'i failz, plz dont keel me.'

TW is not PVP. Killing off lower level characters in TW doesnt make you a PVP master. Join a real PVP server if you want to claim you have any PK knowledge. Grow up, lose the ego, and play the game its supposed to be played; in a respectful, fun matter where you can have fun with your fellow man, not talking more garbage than a city dump.

Those pictures look fake. If the character was semi transparent you would see some of the model's internal geometry. For instance when you zoom in on your character it briefly becomes transparent and you can see eyeballs and teeth. If a hand is in front of their face you should be able to see the face through the hand. Here we can see the translucency of the character is flat. It was probably edited in photoshop to create the effect.

Funny how both "glitches" occured to the same barb. Makes you wonder what's going on...

one of my guildmates had a speed glitch this morning. He was running around in archosaur from N to S in like 3 seconds. When I left home he was still on "speed"... lol

that would be quite hard to accomplish in photoshop, would take alot of dedication, and really, unless that guy that posted it is an "attention ****", wouldn't be worth it imho b:chuckle

there's been an issue with nvidia gfx cards recently that causes the terrain to turn into the skill buttons, among other trippy effects... it's not just him

Take one screenshot with the barb in it and another without and blend them together. It would take a few minutes at most.

GM wings are actually +15m/s... for a total speed of 20m/s b:sweat

in addition to the +999999999 pdef AND mdef boosts, they get +999999999 hp

also, the atk boost is for both patk and matk

while moving, they are literally invisible, as in you cant target them, and if you already had them targeted, you would lose your target

while technically with their GM cape they are essentially invulnerable, they have a switch that can add "Immune to Damage" effect b:laugh

i heard a rumor that the GMs have all the skills from all the classes available to them at all times... which would mean they could perform a ulti-aoe combo, consisting of all 6 race's ultimate skills.... b:shocked

At any time, getting too close to another player or zooming in on your own, they will dissolve and dissapear out of your sight until you move/zoom out, thats all the picture is.

And lol in the first picture of the 2, you can easily see its a panda barb...

the effect caused by what you mention wouldn't apply here however, as that only occurs with close zooms on a character. this "invisi-barb" is clearly outside that minimum range b:victory

I dunno, in the last MMO i played rangers and thieves had stealth modes, also we have invisible spells that looked exactly like this.

If it actually were a character glitch then i would suppose both sides, self and opponent would NOT see the character. Or the transparency on self computer would look 'incomplete' aka seeing the eye ball and teeth and what not. In this case it seems the transparency is looking like its actually suppose to be half visible for self player to see.

/Radar/ - Lost City

another reason why i believe this is what the assassin stealth skill will look like when used, is because as the game currently stands, if the sin's go entirely invisible, there's no way the other classes can cope with it, making the skill OP. but with this "partial invisibility", you'd still be able to catch them sneaking up to you, and thus the skill is badass, but still able to be countered b:victory

Lady_marta - Dreamweaver

I think that it's possible that it is at least similar to the Assassin's stealth ability, but I'm not going to bet money on it. It's also possible that it is a Photoshop job (a GOOD Photoshop job, mind you) since there's nothing non-static on the other side of him.

Davitiel - Heavens Tear

Well, it would be more logical and fair if they could go transparent just like in the picture instead of completely invisible. If they would be able to be completely invisible then they would be unclickable and go PK crazy. If they could go transparent you could still see them, but they would be harder to notice. I have a feeling that they're gonna go transparent instead of 100% invisible.

WaffleChan - Sanctuary

That picture can easily be done by re-adding the barb as another layer, and making it transparent in photoshop easily. Or it could just as easily be someone having a poor, overused GFX card. I dont see how this is 'proof' of anything other than a barb standing on a mount.

over used GFX card would also show inside underarmour over lapping polygons that are hidden with color on normal status.

If it were a glitch, which was showing inintentionally a new skill, I higjly doubt it would show the assorted polygons inside the character. That would be just ugly and I know they don't want that. =P

I could create a similar image on photoshop in less than 15 seconds.
I just have one pic with the barb, and one without. I put the one with the barb on top, then use a brush to rub him over and make him look transparent. I don't even have to be careful about it because the layer behind the barb is exactly the same as the one with the barb, so anywhere I go outside the lines won't be visible.
