[Update 17.10] Few reports

If I am not mistaken ... it works like this on retail too ...
The dmg is "calculated" right when you cast the spell with All effects on it ... but dmg is dealt 4 sec later ...
It was just "visua" bug that we saw dmg before it was dealt ...

 

If my Erosion lands on a Sorc with RoC/Wintry, every time my DoT takes place the debuff will take place aswell. Is that how it's supposed to work? ;

 

Then how exactly was the CC -> Delay -> Weak Spell -> Nuke trend born?

 

But the sole fact even they thought of using it is that there should be some advantage of delaying during CC ;____________;

 

Sorry .. you were right.

ShingXiao Sorcerer Aion PvP 2.6 vol 4 - YouTube

At 7:55 he fights Templar ... He does CC .. Delay then flame fusion .. bammm 1400 dmg from DB.
This is frekingly OPPP ...

If this will be fixed one day here, ought ...

 

A full ABG templar! *points out*

 

I've encountered opposite thing at retail servers, tho my Sorc was only lv51.

I've never had such thing like "Aetherhold -> Strikes with DMG, no resist -> no aerial state" at retail.
Could it be i was that lucky? idk.

 

kinda wrong for the Aether hold.. xD

if the target is stunned while the aether hold cast is done (should put the target in aerial in that time) he doesn't get in aerial state BECAUSE he's already stunned ;O retail

 

To make an analogy to things people may understand... or not :S

But a patch is frigging not a magical entity that miraculously fixes what you want and does not possibly impact other things. I am far from a comp. scientist but I have seen some of the coding and pages upon pages of what appears like jibberish to me is what it is. @_@ A single period, a code that perhaps overrides a code, maybe something takes priority over another which it shouldn't which causes a bug, maybe a target field wasn't filled out, etc.

Considering how many of us play here for free, we DONATE TO BUY GEAR (hardly from the depths of our hearts), I'd consider ourselves lucky we even have a dev willing to try. I know if I was working on it I'd be stressed while doing it and after seeing the communisty bashing I'd probably throw my hands into the air and say screw you all.

But I don't know if this analogy will be correct but I'll use an example of Benadryl...

Benadryl is a histamine antagonist in its core really, and not that thrilling. But it gets lovely side effects on Acetylcholine receptors (which.... if you know anything about the nervous system) is pretty damned importaint. It impacts muscle contraction, alertness, and hell you can even get constipated. It isn't a magical bullet, and coding isn't either I'm sure.

So just sit tight and be patient, or you can PM Carl telling him how you'll pay for more Dev's to work for him to "fix this server". Although I'm 90% sure you'd be rofl'd at.

 

I do aprreciate Dev´s work, I peronally know it is hard tofix things ( have expriences from WoW Gm role ) ...

I simply don´t get the misleading information in patchnotes ...
