I am fairly certain everyone has had one of those tells where someone claims exploiting or some form of cheating after they lose a duel. Long story short ... armour hole is back, but it gets better, seems to just be an action hole. Be sure to watch your legshot's in PvP, i got the hate mail and found out the hard way, hopefully this gets hot fixed ASAP ...

I was doing Nightsister's tuesday night and i guarantee this was not present then. I didn't get a chance to log in yesterday, but sure enough today, attacks seem to have a chance at bypassing leggings and boots completely and inflicting full damage ... /bugged it, needless to say would have been nice to know something in armour resistance changed:

Profession: Armorsmith
Ithorian armor is now available
Fixed gap on female RIS armor helmet.
Added Twilek version of RIS armor helmets

Not really a complaint more of a head's up. I don't see it being a huge issue for us, but in case you get a nasty message from an upset player, just wanted everyone to know.

fullAutoSingle2 is sticking a nice dizzy on now. I do not remember seeing it work this well ever. I am thrilled that it sticks so well.

DROW? I remember a DROW when I used to play PlanetSide, that wouldn't happen to be the same one, would it? If so, is Xennor still there?

Indeed it is, Xennor is still around, i believe he is playing on the Counterstrike team atm. Nice to know we have fans

Here is what i managed to get from the little bit of testing i managed to do. At my bout over the duel i figured i'd verify this a little better. From the combat log, i was counting between 2 and 5 boots/legs resistance between each "hole" (i honestly couldn't think of a better way to wording this) So it looks like about 1 in 3, maybe 1 in 4 were getting through. Combat log doesn't tell you what pool gets hit unfourtunately, but from watching the floaties, didn't appear as if health or mind was affected. I kinda figured what happened was a stealth fix to the Helm/Chest/Gloves/Boots problem. So i tried taking off my leggings, and again about 1 in 3 getting through. Then tried without biceps or bracers and still no health hole. I shot this up on the Pub 11 Issues thread right after i posted this thread. When i first noticed this it seemed to be about 1 in 10 or so, but it is much higher.

Mentioned it some guildies and apparently it was an issue yesterday for them as well. So it might not be Publish 11 that is causing this. Also i only tested this with composite

I think I witnessed this while dueling today.


After an unsuccessful Stun Baton run, I switched to Carbines and wasn't doing much damage until all of a sudden, my opponents action pool drained considerably (as if he wasn't wearing armor). Saw it happen twice in the span of 10 minutes of constant CrippleShotting against a fully-armored opponent.


Bug? Maybe. I'll have to test it out some more too.

Well I just let off 41 LegShot3's on Chilastra and not a single one bypassed my armor.


This may be a server specific thing, like the vendor problem we just had....

Weird, other than the claims of the person i was dualing i only experienced this in PvE, of course i never tried in PvP ... hopefully it is server specific, something tells me that might give SOE a reason to get it fixed quickly.

Yep it was affecting us in the action pool the usual hits was between 300-500 then it would be 1800. We was working on siths and we were TKM's and Master Rifles. Also it was after Pub 11 came out.

Hmmm and so the plot thickens ... after a few hours tonight, figured i would try boots only no leggings and like magic ... taking OFF the leggings removes the armour hole. re-/bugged it. Hopefully this will be fixed quickly. The simple fact that less armour is providing more protection just isn't right.

Same on Bria. I dueled my guild leader and I did not notice any high amount of damage to the action pools.. Ie his armor was working. Also my dizzy states, are coming up much more now it seems.



But I think the armor hole thing is incorrect. More likely the guy had disabled Armor leggings,

On my server there is a massively bad t21 exploit that can kill you in under 2 to 3 seconds... using their strafe 2, and another bit of info i wont put here to feed the fire... However besides that i was using legshot today, and it seemed i was doing less damage than i should have been. Little wierd i thought personally.
