Assault Bot - plasma blast bugged?
-Regen is heavily resisted. I assume you are looking at the stats on an AV?
Your 50% is going to be 80% resisted (I think) so only actually equates to 10%, which is nothing really. I don't know about the length of time though, I think level difference and the purple patch will shorten that too.
British by act of union, English by grace of God, Northern by pure good fortune!
I'm fully versed in how regen interacts with AV's/GM's.
a regen debuff of 5 (or 500%) is resisted down to about 71.xx hp/sec debuff on an even con lvl 50 AV. They regenerate at ~94 hp/sec
The assault bot plasma burst is doing this for less than 1 second every time it is reapplied, but it is supposed to last 30 seconds.
Detailed combat attributes on the target shows the debuff lasting the full duration, but it only actually affects its net regeneration for a split second.
It is a very very easy bug to see in action and unfortunately sucks pretty bad for what I was expecting the build to do.
I'll attach some screens a little later.
Ok, so it isn't ticking every time the bot reapplies, it just ticks the debuff on and then immediately off every few seconds
This should flat line his regen
This should have him down to 23.56 hp/sec
Worked for half a sec!
Workded for a half sec, but didn't apply the correct value!
Sad
Hey guys.
Plasma blast
* 30.59 Energy damage
* +2.596 Knockback (30% chance) PvE only
* +2.596 Knockback (30% chance) If target is a player
Suppressed when Knocked, for 10 seconds (WhenInactive)
* Regeneration -5 for 30s (30% chance) PvE only [Ignores Enhancements & Buffs]
* Regeneration -10 for 30s (30% chance) If target is a player [Ignores Enhancements & Buffs]
Just tested and the debuff is pretty much always 1-3 times applied vs hard targets. Which should be awesome.... right?
Well the target has a big red -xxxxx regen under their status, but their total regeneration rate is rarely affected. It will rapidly flick to debuffed and then back up to not debuffed in a matter of milliseconds.
It's broken
Sadly this was supposed to be a very large part of the success of the bots/storm I just spent the last month leveling to 50. Which I'll now be shelving indefinitely...
Has anyone heard of any fix for this in the works, or reported it in the past (I did tonight)? yaya we all know bots are great and don't need to be any better, but I'm a stickler for things working as they should.
