Without getting into detail, the tell apparently is a mid or fatroll followed by immediately buffing a weapon that shouldn't otherwise be buffable. They don't need to be locked on or even see you before they can do it. It doesn't give you much warning to work with, 'cept maybe a charge or spell attack during the weapon buff if you are close enough to see what they are doing. Kinda sick that the much desired DWGR nerf has led indirectly to another terrible glitch, but here we are.
As an aside, this is the sort of thing that caused me to focus nearly exclusively on coop. Losing pvp duels to glitchers is annoying but not going to ruin your day or make you question your competence. But there are a lot of newer players out there (I still run into noobs constantly in coop) who have zero chance against this. They won't "learn" PvP from getting gutted by glitchers in a couple of swings, they'll just quit. So I do what I can to even the odds for them in hopes some of those wee baby turtles make it all the way to the sea. As the saying goes, if you can't do something smart, do something right.
