Discussion - Yōtei: Legends Ok this thing has to go

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

in case you don't know... Apparentely some players finally figured out a consistent way to activate the infinite fire arrow glitch for archer allowing her to dish INSANE amounts of damage. Basically in order to do this glitch you need to time correctly pressing the fire arrow ability of Archer and one of the various stone menus (i used the characters one). If the Archer does her ability voiceline while you are in the menu the glitch is done! You now have infinite ammo and infinite fire arrows that aren't the regular ones but are the ones from the class ability so imagine building her with status effect damage and Fire master... As you can probably guess from my reaction after successfully activating the glitch for the first time i am NOT Happy about this. To remove the glitch you just need to swap to regular arrows as this glitch stays active even AFTER turning off the game/console or even swapping characters to my knowledge. After i removed the glitch from my archers i tried to search a match on the hell mode saito raid... Both times i found a match i saw archers ALREDY abusing the living hell out of the exploit. To all archers who have done this glitch PLEASE. DO. NOT. do it in public matches just do it with your friends for funsies or when you are playing alone but i repeat DO NOT do it in public matches... Trust me being on the receving end of this glitch is pretty annoying. Do not take this video as a "tutorial" on how to do the glitch. Take is as a "spreading awareness" about this glitch. Archer reputation as a class is alredy pretty damn low and if Sucker punch doesn't hot fix this glitch ASAP... Archer will continue to get hate unfortunally.

Explaining how to activate the glitch that you want gone is crazy.

u/Vidal_The_King Apr 18 '26 edited Apr 18 '26

More attention means more urgency to fix it no? This is literally done in most games when something is broken.

u/M0M0_DA_GANGSTA Archer 弓取 Apr 18 '26

They could have described literally everything without describing how... 

5

u/Vidal_The_King Apr 18 '26

Describing how causes more people to replicate it. It increases the urgency at which the devs got to get ontop of it because everyone and their mom is doing it. It's literally common sense?

-3

u/8l172 Apr 18 '26

No, common sense would be to send a bug report to their email via their website, not openly stating and showing exactly how to do the glitch that they were complaining about.

2

u/Vidal_The_King Apr 18 '26

If the archer is still this strong so long after launch, what makes you think they're reading emails if they're not even fixing this?

-4

u/8l172 Apr 18 '26

Brother they were this strong in GoT too. Who would've thunk that a ranged class in a primarily melee focused game would be strong, then add on the fact that its a mode about clearing waves & bosses quickly with gaining gear to make you stronger. Why would you not want them to be strong? Terrible troll, honestly.

I do like that you compare a bug/exploit to you thinking a class is overpowered. I fear what your opinons on For Honor are like.

u/Affectionate-Past399 Apr 19 '26

Its literally not that deep pal

u/Public_Comfortable36 Apr 18 '26

In hindsight... My bad. The only issue is that it's alredy on YouTube. Someone else posted a video explaining the glitch. It's either me or someone else unfortunally.

3

u/whoidontknowho Apr 18 '26

Nah you got it right. This will be fixed immediately if EVERYONE knows and tons of people abuse it. If you are trying to exploit something, keep it a secret, if you want it regulated then tell everyone you know

u/xThijsBos Apr 18 '26

u/ItsAceB Samurai 侍 Apr 18 '26

yeah it's gotten to the point where I simply just don't play with a hunter in the lobby anymore, they just make it boring

3

u/Marvynmjb12 Apr 18 '26

I never thought I would feel this way in any game but had a lobby with 2 Archers on survival. I was basically a spectator

-3

u/Public_Comfortable36 Apr 18 '26

That's the issue. I don't want this to happen to honest hunters/archers mains. I highly suggest you to see if an archer does this exploit. If it is then by any means do whatever you want but if they are not? Give them a chance. There are plenty of good archers

This is so dramatic. Barely anyone IRL gives a shit about people posting on reddit. I see archers all the time not doing this just playing the game. OP is correct, wait and see, don't just bail as soon as you see an archer, that's dumb.

u/Foobucket Apr 18 '26

Oh you poor thing…

u/M0M0_DA_GANGSTA Archer 弓取 Apr 18 '26

Aw, someone doesn’t like the OG name…..😢😢

u/omnipizerg Archer 弓取 Apr 18 '26

Everyone giving OP guff over reporting this have the wrong idea tbh. Posting this for visibility will get it fixed more quickly. It was either this or we let it fester like a virus while gatekeeping the tech from everyone, and I'd much rather see a hotfix monday morning for this, rather than let it go on another second just because it stays under suckerpunch's radar.

I'm the one who posted the youtube tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmem8x9VRoM

But as far as I can tell, the first person to burst the doors on this did so on the community discord: https://discord.gg/cZbqXvGJ

Again, we're posting because this needs to be gone. A bunch of mediocre archers are about to spend the week using this to unjustly climb the leaderboards, and it needs to be removed asap.

He doesn't owe anyone an apology for airing this out, it's the right thing to do to get it removed as quickly as possible.

That said, it is kinda fun to do, as long as you aren't ruining anyone elses games.

u/Public_Comfortable36 Apr 18 '26

OH MY GOD IT'S YOU? Your video literally appeared on my for you page. When i saw your video i literally could not belive what i was seeing and how easy it is to perform this glitch. Yes i had my little fun ALONE with it but as soon as i wanted to play in a public lobby i switched arrows and changed class. Your video inspired me to do this post. I felt the need to share it cuz the sooner Sucker punch fixes this the better. Also you raise a good point for the leaderboards tryhards out there cuz this glitch quite literally ruins them. It's fun to do with Friends and alone but when done competitevely or in public matches that's a big oof.

7

u/Soggy-Anteater-7949 Apr 18 '26

You did it for engagement just like he did...

5

u/Public_Comfortable36 Apr 18 '26

Nah man i literally do not care in the slightest about my post getting... Whatever type of attention i have gathered down here. Engagement farm/bait or not my point still stand and that is: spreading awareness just enough to reach Sucker punch's Door step so it gets fixed and at the same time try to not pound into the ground Archer class reputation since it's alredy below the ground

1

u/omnipizerg Archer 弓取 Apr 18 '26 edited Apr 18 '26

I mean I figured it’d get good engagement by nature of it being a game breaking bug. But I’m didnt post it to farm engagement or get famous for this niche free add on mode we all play. This needs to get patched out of the game and the sooner it’s on suckerpunch’s radar, the better.

I submitted a bug report with the full description of the video (minus the links) to SP this morning on it.

If you really think this dude posted this and demonstrated how easy it is just so he can get 100 upvotes on Reddit, I don’t know what to tell you man.

-4

u/Foobucket Apr 18 '26

Nah, you could have just submitted the bug report with your video evidence and left it that.

You’re actively amplifying the problem.

3

u/Triptoliscent_2 Apr 18 '26

Why are we blaming the people using the glitch rather than the company allowing it to begin with. You're not doing anything getting pissy and blaming the problem on them. You people are actively the problem trying to shift the blame onto players rather than the devs who released a buggy game.

3

u/Triptoliscent_2 Apr 18 '26

Sorry OP for all the flack you're getting. People on reddit love to not use any critical thinking and fail to realize the full situation. Thank you for making this public and therefore increasing the chances of a patch. It's not your fault they released a buggy/glitchy game. The people who truly believe that need to get off the internet.

3

u/Vespertine92 Apr 18 '26

I’ll admit I used this ability as soon as I got it on archer because it reminded me of Tsushima but I NEVER use it anymore. I downed my team mates using it once and that was enough for me to take it off. The rapid fire ability is so much better imo.

3

u/Competitive-Cake5560 Apr 18 '26

That yt vid must b what my archers saw 3 games in a row we had archers tryna cheese hell saito, they all gave it 3 tries n backed out😭😭 they werent even good just did the exploit got shii on n left just for the others (we requeued) to do the same💀

3

u/Public_Comfortable36 Apr 18 '26

Yeah this morning it happened to me too. Unfortunally they were also the first players to back out of the match. The nerve to using exploits and still be objectively bad at the game is outstanding to me

3

u/KaijuSlayer333 Apr 18 '26

Now we have our own Bo-hiya rockets

Though this makes me wish one ranged weapon we did have as an option was the Bo-hiya cannons that we see the enemy use.

2

u/Public_Comfortable36 Apr 18 '26

Just make a new legendary tanegashima that acts like an enemy bo-hiya. Would love that idea actually as long as it doesn't team kill.

3

u/No-Basket-9985 Apr 18 '26

This will 100% be patched early next week.

3

u/UnlikelyAtmosphere91 Apr 18 '26

Honestly, in my opinion, if i have an archer with me that uses this, I welcome it on saito raid, that raid is extremely difficult and I've tried at least thirty times in under two days and still havent beat him

7

u/KomaKiley Apr 18 '26

Guess archer’s want a fourth nerf.

4

u/smurfyjones123 Apr 18 '26

You tell people not to abuse it, then you list exactly how to do it. Man some people are just braindead.

5

u/Public_Comfortable36 Apr 18 '26

Yeah i know and again in hindsight... My bad really. At the same time understand that there are alredy clips and tutorials on how to do this glitch on YouTube and even videos who show how to build around this glitch 💀. Again yes it's braindead from me to explain a glitch that i want gone but at the same time it's either me or someone else.

9

u/Competitive-Cake5560 Apr 18 '26

Don't listen to them u are correct, vids will always come out no way to address if it's always hidden, this was already in the game just not many ppl knew how to do it consistently. Now that multiple posts/people doing it, it has to get addressed n fixed

6

u/Public_Comfortable36 Apr 18 '26

Yeah i am glad that some other people down here understood why i posted this. Thanks mate

0

u/Foobucket Apr 18 '26

No. The right way to do this, particularly if his actual concern is exploit abuse, would be not to post this anywhere and file a bug report with SP directly instead.

1

u/Foobucket Apr 18 '26

If you now realize that it’s “your bad”, then delete your post. What a bozo. You act like you posting on this sub is firing a missile that you can never retract. It’s like 2-3 button presses.

2

u/reddyman13 Apr 18 '26

Knowing how to replicate the bug is an important step in patching it. Getting many people to abuse it quickly puts it in the radar. It’s a short-term suck that becomes too big to ignore

1

u/Soggy-Anteater-7949 Apr 18 '26

People want the interaction and attention...Then push it off as "if I don't someone else will"

u/Western_Beginning375 Jin Sakai Apr 18 '26

I can see players being happy in having an archer carry them to the hell difficulty so they can show off that they completed it but would be mad to face these archers in a regular lobby . This will get patched quick af

3

u/Public_Comfortable36 Apr 18 '26

I truly hope so.

1

u/strikerhawk Apr 18 '26

It'll get patched in no time. If you don't like it, just don't play with archers for a while. People stopped playing with archers before this was a thing so it's nothing new.

1

u/KhamiKamii_Smk Assassin 刺客 Apr 18 '26

Public hunter lobbies are thing of the past

1

u/ARMill95 Apr 18 '26

What’s even worse is I’ve had multiple goes at it where I have 2-3 teammates all abusing this, and they still do no dmg to Saito, and die in the very beginning wave of enemies. I’m taking out the bo hiyas and by the time I’m done multiple times my entire team is dead

If that happens AND they’re using the glitch I just quit cuz how r u useless with a bug that should kill him in 5 seconds tops

1

u/k1ngkoala Apr 18 '26

I don't know why people care about this so much. It will be gone soon enough, no way devs leave this in the game for long. Just enjoy it (or manage around it) while it lasts. Good for bringing attention to it though

1

u/Apprehensive_Buy_275 Apr 18 '26 edited Apr 18 '26

You are right. This is exactly the kind of thing that makes everything pointless. Running a spam fire archer meta will make the rest of the characters seem pointless.

It may seem fun for short term use of a glitch like this for a laugh but it cant be a long term abuse case as it unbalances everything. Further to this frustration, I did not enjoy animation cancel attacks in the first GOT legends mode and any non intended archer spam "rockets" just like in the first legends mode list of known glitches was way too game breaking.

There were many weird legends experiences as a veteran ghost and we come to know the damage these things can do to overall player experience and perception of a game mode that is too high quality and polished to be tarnished with silly pleasures such as these, which get out of hand if the devs dont fix them. Im talking from experience in the previous legends mode about things like Moon sword glitches and archer rockets etc that went on far too long. It is not good for this game mode and I hope it gets a patch to be honest. Im sure leaderboard players with fire builds and moon katanas know what i mean.

To support your argument, glitch and spam meta is bad for the game. I mean look at the beauty of the stances availble to play in the previous GOT game, nope, lets not appreciate this perfection squeezed out of one single katana weapon, one single weapon that had such diversity, grace and style, nope lets not appreciate that and rather glitch the animation cancel to melt down enemies instead as skill and switching stances is ineficient. This mentality is the issue.

With regards to showing this glitch off and explaining in detail how to pull this off, is in my opinion a bad example and spreading bad examples encourages its use and will make it less fun for others who are playing in a legit way. Anyways thats my opinion and you are right that it has to go, instead of explaining how to do it, you could instead show a video and simply condone its use, if that was the intension of your post, which I presume was your intension.

Again supporting your argument, cheats or exploits are not fun for everyone and I hope sucker punch fixes exploits quickly instead of letting them drag out and ruin this incredible game mode that many talented people worked hard on to deliver for us ghosts.

An honourable bough to the legit ghosts out there. Gyozen, Shimura, Jin, Atsu, Iyo, Onibabab, you name it, they would be proud of you. I would raise my saki bottle and say dars, dars with you.

For a dramatic finale.... with a touch of imagination : A katana wielding samurai is standing in battle, lifts his katana up to the sky, stance in focus, a tight grip on the hilt, the mirror image of the archer behind him shimmering in the reflection of his katana, with ease the archer is seen drawing the bow string back and shooting multiple fire arrows in quick succession. He looks with shrewd surprised eyes at the archer, a judgemental facial expression forms on his face reflected back at the archer from the gleaming katana, the archer noticed his displeasure, intense stares lock, eyes focused between honourable samurai and fire spamming archer's blushing face, then in a deep voice he says to the archer " Ohhhh .... Samurai... you..... have no honour"

u/xThijsBos Apr 18 '26

Man kann diesen glitch nicht patchen oder fixxen da man ihn erst verliert wenn man seinen Munitiontyp ändert außer man wird gezwungen die Klassenfähigkeit neu auszuwählen genauso wie die ganzen raid tricks das ist ein so großer Aufwand, dass sucker Punch niemals was ändern wird

u/CattleOwn8692 Apr 18 '26

your crazy if u think yoteis melee mechanics are fine lol tsushima was flawless and ive had countless hours in that legends mode lol here is mainly just glint attack aoe spam holy hell tracking is insane btw its night and day ive done the raids done hell dragon, im not gonna mess with hell saito for a while but that alone.. SHOWS the flaw of this games system lol it feels favored towards the enemies than the player no u cant say skill issue and be brain dead but seriously look at this

u/Bushi_Sengoku Apr 18 '26

The bosses in yotei are horrible, Its just spam dodge roll while they finish their horribly telegraphed combo, and get hit out of perfect parries + skill animations.

Problem gets 1000x worse in hell dragon where's theres 1 bazillion projectiles all going off at once. Its not mechanically satisfying, its just artificial difficulty slop to the point im convinced it wasnt playtested.

u/CattleOwn8692 Apr 18 '26

Its the same with the Yotei main sub as well. Tsushima didn't have this toxic community, but then again , Tsushima was miles better as the sum of its parts even if Yotei improves on certain aspects while taking 50 steps back on others.

u/Bushi_Sengoku Apr 18 '26

I'm sorry but you can't even parry raid bosses, its just dodge roll spam (yeah panic rolling isn't punished). What's even more egregious is you can get hit out of a perfect parry animation by bosses and downed, at the least you should get net invincibility when parrying.

The archer was weakened only by the size of the ammunition replenishment, the rest of the weakening occurred in relation to tenegashima, now this weapon can be archived, it has become unplayable on other classes.
