Possible issue with being untargetable in Gem Feud

[sttr413]

Reporting myself YAY. Please don’t ban me tho, I have no idea what was that issue about xD I’ve been called “cheater” yesterday (on that video, lol), so I am posting this to clearly show I am not.

Date and Time(Please, specify the timezone) : 20.02.19, gem feud time, my GMT is +3. see video below

Server Name: EU Fedimian
Team Name: Rayburn
Character Name: Rayburn

Bug Description :
My guildmates report they were SOMETIMES not able to land hits on me in Feud for some reason. I have no idea what is causing this, but my guess is that it is somehow connected to the area around enemy NPC giving invulnerability. Full video of Feud below; See 5:02, 5:54, 6:47. Especially at 6:47 - it is clearly visible that my guildmate Shadowfinder and several other players attacked me, but I took no damage and no DODGE/BLOCK was shown (I have both).

That said, my guildmates were able to attack other players coming to NPC area just fine, so there must be some other factor involved.

UPD: Additional factors I had during feud that may not be common for other players -> possibly may be source of bug and worth checking: Stone Whale Card, Cleric Buff Armor Enchantment (24h), Goddess Blessing from Goddess Sculpture, Boruta Scout Seal +1. But it is most probably not as simple as that, as I used all those before and never noticed an issue.

Steps to reproduce the issue :

1. Unclear, probably connected to enemy NPC protected area and maybe BM/Assa skills.

Screenshots / Video :

Game Control Mode : mousemode

System : ASUS x550j Laptop, Win 10, RU Region

PS. By the way, thanks for fixing feud!! It’s so stable and smooth now!

I’ve been called “cheater” yesterday (on that video, lol)

Yes, that was me. Because it looks exactly like some kind of exploiting game… ahem, “features”. You can’t be hit by ANY of my char skills. This is not I can call a fairplay.
Also I have another question about that freeze skill. It’s definitely not a freeze bullet. What is it? Card or something else?

[sttr413]

Twas totally freeze bullet. My cards are Glass Mole, Stone Whale, Denoptic, Netherbovine. It’s just really easy to land 30% freeze when you have insane ASPD with Outrage + Hasisas. You can see me using freeze bullet in the video.

Was I unreachable on NPC area only? Because you can see in a video I died quite a few times.

Maybe Stone Whale bugs out giving invuln instead of 10% dmg reduction, rofl? xD

[pheel79]

Ok. So it was Freeze Bullet, but I doubt it was basic 10% as it should be in feud. I’m also have enough DEX to shoot fast, but the rate of freezing enemies isn’t that high.

I think the inv. effect wasn’t only on NPC area, but the whole map. Even I was chasing you, I still can’t cast, for example, Electric Shock skill. Even basic AA always miss. So, yes, Stone Whale is possible suspect.
Damn you, Stone Whale!

[sttr413]

I’ve added some other suspects to the OP post.

@GM_Francis I am not sure I can modify the ticket I’ve already sent, at this point OP post contains more detailed info than the ticket, can you kindly modify the ticket on your side? Thanks!

@pheel79 Wait, Freeze chance is lowered at feud? Never heard of it. Tooltip says 30% chance.

Wait, Freeze chance is lowered at feud? Never heard of it. Tooltip says 30% chance.

Really? If my memory doesn’t trick me I read somewhere, that 30% is only in PvE. In PvP chance reduced to 10%. But I can’t give any confirmation on this statement.

[sttr413]

Those skill changes apply to TBL (like 80% damage reduction to ALL attacks), I am not sure if they apply to Feud as well (probably not). So no idea here as well. But it certainly doesn’t look like 10% freeze in my experience. I also sometimes use Sausis Gloves and their 10% seems to proc not that often.

[draconis]

I don’t think it’s related to the NPC but it’s probably a packet loss/server freeze/micro lag problem happening in the middle of casting a skill that makes you untargetable/invulnerable.

[sttr413]

More ppl admit to having had same issues in the past. Looks like the issue is real after all.

[Andraax]

Unfortunately Feud is totally buggy - still. I think (hope) everyone knows this. Yeah, you also manage to freeze me all the time, probably really your ASPD or any bug.
Is it okay to hijack this thread for other buggy issues during Feud? I think if i start, it will be a lengthy post.

[sttr413]

I manage to freeze everyone all the time (except PDs and Murmillos). My freeze bullet is on easily reachable button on my keyboard for a reason. And with a 30% freeze chance, I really don’t know what’s so surprising about it. Proper BMs using Freeze Bullet also freeze me all the time.

You can try to, but I don’t think more than one issue per thread is effective. You know how IMC are.

[Andraax]

Isn’t the freezing chance of “Freeze bullet” meant to be 10% in Feud? At 30% sure no wonder, but if the chance is meant to be 10% that would be the bug I’m referring to.

[sttr413]

I’ve answered that question above. I am not sure TBL skill changes are applied to Feud.

Meanwhile, cleric duration buff (24h) is gone from enchanter shop with today’s ninja-patch! I wonder if that is somehow connected with said issue

[sttr413]

Bump, issue is real, another Assassin was bugged today (not me).
So I believe it is connected to assassin skills, probably iframes.
AoEs don’t work as well, not getting damage at all.

@GM_Francis I hope you agree that being INVINCIBLE for no reason is pretty serious stuff in PvP.

[sttr413]

@GM_Francis
If bad connection makes you invincible, does it mean I can use 56 kb/s dual-up and be OP?)) Wow, ahhahahaha.

This is not an answer.

[Ennislol]

It looks to me that you gain iframes and even after, for a slight bit you don’t get hit.

The only thing I can think of, is that the game believed that after the iframes you get calibrated to incorrect team, meaning they think you’re on team A, so you don’t take dmg in that npc area until it realizes you’re not actually team A.

[pheel79]

This is not an answer.

It isn’t. But I can “stand in the shoes” of the manager who reply you, because it’s hard to reproduce issue with the (net)code under the game’s hood in a specific situation. What could he/she answer you? Only that this issue was forwarded to the devs to investigate. It’s definitely their fault.

BTW, while dueling with the mounted class (lancer), I’ve noticed, that some kind of the same behavior reproduced when you targeting and attacking their pets in mouse mode! It’s a bit tricky though, but achievable. Animation of AA is playing, but no damage. Maybe you became a pet? Lol.
