It's considered LOS, so yeah, it's bannable due to bug abuse

If not, than it should be bannable.

I think it already is, tough.
Screenshots are kinda old, I'm not sure if you have intentions on reporting Amazonian for this.
I talked to him few times about it, not sure if he still does it.

If he continues to do so, report section is there waiting for you post ;)

So much about you moving to 70s bracket and even leaving server lol.

Except it says "You are too far away", nothing about totem being not in line of sight. Imo these screenshots do not provide a valid proof.

Would need more than one incident imo, and it's a BG, the totem isn't the flag carrier so could be argued not needing to be killed. Even though it's obvious it is, it's same as someone LoSing, healing, running out, stunning, LoSing again to heal. Which is not bannable, or at least wasn't at one stage.

I would say, in the case we have two screenshots with diferent totems then I would vote for a punishment. In this case we have two screenshots with the same totem case, in my opinion deserving only a warning.

I would say that abuse is when a player does it on purpose and we cannot tell if it is done on purpose by those 2 screenshots, can follow player if you claim he repeat it, however i agree with what bluebell said it's same as someone LoSing, healing, running out, stunning, LoSing again to heal. Which is not bannable, or at least wasn't at one stage.

but if he was using in a warsong for lvl 10-19 potions buffs and well feds of lvl 70+ as you did perhaps it is bannable, but thats not what this topic is about right ?xd

I think most of the staff members commenting in this post show some form of bias towards Shamm for what he had done in the past.

I'll also explain the importance of killing totems at that bracket. If you're unable to kill that specific totem, you won't catch up to the person casting it, especially if he is a shaman... There are no mounts at that bracket, so you can't make up lost ground. It's a direct contribution to losing a game. Somebody LOS'ing with the flag is bannable, so why wouldn't something like this be directly bannable as well? The player is intentionally affecting the game, by doing something, that normally an "auto attack" could prevent any effect at all (let alone a ranged ability).

If he doesn't get warned for this at least, then it is a failure on the staff's part to protect the integrity of the server.

I don't know if you play a melee class, but to anyone who has ever played it you can clearly see on the second screenshot that the totem's visual is within melee range even though the error message says different.

The point is that those 2 screenshots cannot say for sure that he did that on purpose.

Shamm, post the other screenshots you have of other incidents, seems Amazonian's fans and friends require something more.

These two of the same incident screenshots don't prove that the totem was intentionally put there, it could have been an accident, even though most of you claim that it's not the suspect's first offense.
Therefore, with not enough evidence supporting a ban, Amazonian is to be warned, that any next offense will lead into a more severe punishment.
Locking and moving.
