So, I've seen something happen 3 times this morning; guardians blinking out of exsistence.
The reason I'm posting it here is that I'm not sure if it's some hidden/new ability/combo (I know exotics can improve blink), the network (because I mean... we know its an issue), or some cheat/exploit (granted this isn't anything like borderline invincibility, insta-supers, or full-auto Vex Mythoclast).
While in Crucible (2 times in Control, 1 in Elimination) I saw Hunters blink and then just.... disappear? Granted, I know blink can be pretty effective, but I mean they were gone and halfway across the map. Like this would be an insane distance to travel with blink.
In my context, I was doing the good ol' shotgun-punch method. The hunter would come around the corner, I would pop up and shoot them, then they would suddenly jump and blink and that was that. I confirmed one ended up halfway across the map because they killed a teammate who was clear on the other side seconds after I shot them.
It's annoying but effective. If it was an ability I'd definitely use it; you can blink significantly farther, however, end up somewhere random. Blink with no directional control. If this is some cool combo, does anyone have details on it?

3 RepliesWell, seeing as how hunters don’t have access to blink, they were either badly lagging or cheating or both. Dedicated Pvp servers should be nexons “renewed” pvp focus next year.
