Nope that's not the bug. Crackshot is just the way to reset the ROF so that you can instantly fire again. Takes a bit of micro ad the extent to which is abusable depends directly on how fast you are.

@Mr_Bramboy No. The sharpshooter attack animation resets the cooldown of your ranged attack, meaning that you can shoot rapidly at enemies (be it treasure guardians or enemy units) as long as there is a treasure guardian nearby to abuse to have your ranged attack reset. In the case of the Iroquois warchief, there is not even a need for a nearby treasure guardian.
Pay more attention to detail.

Thank you for the insights. I'll talk to some others to determine whether or not this is allowed in tournaments.

Can you explain the side stepping? :hmm: Not quite sure if I am familiar with that and maybe I learn something.

I guess he means moving right after having shot a treasure guardian, which makes it bug and not attack you even if you're in the treasure radius. But not sure.
That bug lets you kill polar bears without losing any hp, but it does require a good micro.

Update from me, since Bram is busy:
We currently consider avoiding any unit's standard rate-of-fire delay by cancelling abilities to fall under exploits and not allowed in tournaments until further notice.

As usual, when the notorious cheater causes trouble for ESOC, I would like to clarify the matter a little bit, though it's up to you whether my clarification is given credit or not.

The guy who stole the ESO account from @fei123456 , kept hunting other Chinese players' accounts as well. This time the victim is @callmeQQ, who bought his account during last Steam sale and lost it to the thief the same day.

Kabul says "Never trust chinese players in aoe 3 basically". Well understood. Most Chinese players do not spend time here in ESOC, and it's quite reasonable that you might think many Chinese cheaters are sabotaging on ESO as there are multiple accounts regularly doing cheating stuff. However as far as I know, only one guy is behind all these stuff, and he is that sort of freaky moron. I know 10+ ESO accounts that he uses to cheat, if you want to know them, you can PM me to ease your pains on ESO if you do not want to waste too much time playing against this cheater guy. E.g. Elo records shows that Kaiser's smurf loses to the same guy as disguised by 3 different accounts recently. I will not publish the list here since I cannot give real evidence for what I claim, so it will be against community rules.

Dixi.

I don't think prince meant that chinese people are overall cheaters, just that wuziqi has so many chinese smurf accounts that we shouldn't trust random chinese accs. 50% of the times I meet a chinese acc in qs it feels like it's a cheater, probably wuziqi.

@nt_sven could you pm me the name of the cheater accs I met in qs please?

Notice I was "couprider" before 2016, not "fei123456". I have to borrow an account to avoid being called a cheater. (Though I have my own account now)
I don't know who's "fei" and I don't know what does "123456" mean. But what can I do? We're victims instead of cheaters.
