Fireball Becomes Targetable + Graphical Glitch

Time : 02:49AM (GMT) - 06/08/2015
Control Mode : Mouse

Bug Description :
Fireball gains a sort of hit-box which allows it to be targeted. The hit box is visible graphically, I could target and attack the fireball but their was no collision, attacks passed right through.

Couldn’t find reliable method of reproducing bug, though once it happened in an area (often in boss fights) it was frequently repeatable.

Wait, what? The fireball is supposed to be targetable, are you using a rod or a staff? The fire ball can be hit using melee attacks, but not magic/ranged ones. If you have a (2h) staff equipped, you can hit it as a wizard by pressing C.

it’s a feature not a bug lol

Intended, you can use the C key to propel your fireball to the next target.

This is a feature. The point is you can play golf with the fireball to suffice its small aoe and range. I actually don’t want them to remove this function because i can make trick shots with this and use the fireballs to increase my range for electrocute.
If you pressed c while using a staff you can move it.

I remember hiting those with my Quarrel Shooter normal ranged atacks… At the second dungeon in a party with a Pyromhancer… Strangeee o_o

Targetable should be normal for malee hit. But those square box graphic isn’t normal.

^ FWIW, I had the box as well.

Maybe it only can not be hit by magic then? I know I can’t hit it with a rod or a staff by pressing z, but c with a staff works

My screen never seen in as box. Possible to cause by graphic card or pc spec idk. @.@

That box only really appears if you hover your mouse over it. Kind of like the aura around an NPC

Oh I got it now, It’s only show box when using mouse mode. I’m using keyboard mode so I never seen one even hover my mouse over it. XD

Thanks for the replies guys, I wasn’t aware it being targetable was intentional, however now that leads me to question why it isn’t always targetable?

The “box graphic” was present even when I wasn’t mouse hovering it.
My normal ranged attacks would often not target it when I tried to, but only on occasion.

However its behavior is intended to be, I feel an improved tool-tip is much needed.

Thanks for the info =)

The translation team was establishing guidelines of skill/attribute description when the beta started, so what you see in the tooltips is largely unedited. Some things are missing as well, maybe that’s why it doesn’t state it. On the other hand, there are some combos that ToS wants us to find out ourselves, for example something about quarrel shooter being able to tear down an ice wall for additional damage to the enemies. Maybe being able to melee is one of them.

As for why the rectangular hitbox is always present, it might have been a glitch. I think I remember having seen something like this in hectic situations. Also, you are in melee range on that screenshot, maybe the game locked on to the nearest target because of that?
