"After today's patch and verifying the issues in game, I posted 2 threads in the developer forum questioning what is going on and if/when fixes can be introduced. The Developer actually in charge of these issues responded to both threads which I must admit is great as he posts only a few times all week if at all. I have both good news,bad news and then more good news. The good news is the Developer acknowledges all of these issues do exist andhe has actually fixed (!!!) a majority of our issues! The bad news is that he fixed themtoo close to the Publish 6 cutoff date for themto make it into this publish.However, all of these changes are ready to go for Publish 7!!! This means they should be showing up on the Test Center in the next few weeks.
Some concrete info:
- /chargeshot1 is now working correctly
- /chargeshot2 is not working but the Dev thought it was. He is looking into this more. I think a hotfix is unlikely but who knows.
- Bleeds were heavily changed. Actionshot1 and 2 no longer stack.
- Actual bleed damage is 1/10th of what it was.
- Bleeds do real damage on the initial strike BUT it is random pool. This is a bug as it is supposed to be hitting just action. This may be fixed as a hotfix. The damage on the initial strike was to compensate for the lowering of the bleed.
- The damageon bleeds is a work in progess. It may be increased. It was drastically lowered because of exploits to epic enounterswhere people would bleed a target then hop on aspeeder and kite.
- The AoE wierdness of actionshot2 is fixed for Publish 7 (whether that means full function AoE or it is now single target I do not know yet).
- A word versionof the Status of the Specials sticky thread has been in this Devs hands for a couple of weeks now. When this Dev says a majority of our issues are fixed, I think he is refering to this list. I think we can expect some good fixes in the next publish!"
interesting info--thought you guys would want to know.
