Stalker Entropy Shield Teleport Issue

Hey guys, I was wondering... I have a Stalker with Energy Aura and while pvpng I was teleported into a drone. If I have Entropy Shield which has resistence to teleport, and there is no way to enhance the protection, how is it that I was tped?

I know in PVE it has 100% resistance, so is it less in PVP?

Does it take a few yellows to bypass the shield and land a successful teleport?

Thanks

It's bugged and the TP protection isn't working. It's been that way since I13, so the odds of it getting fixed anytime soon aren't all that good (unless someone can convince them to fix it with I17).

and the joke is thiat TP protection only matters in PvP (when was the last time you were TP Foed or Wormholed by a NPC?), and it hasn't worked since i13

The main person laughing is Castle. welcome to pvp 2.0.

You are welcome to submit your complaint to the nearest trash bin of your convenience.

my best guess is that when they were changing status protection to status resists for PvP 2.0, they changed the TP protection to 'TP resist' which is apparantly useless. The question here, was it an accident or on purpose? From what I recall, there were a lot of suprised people who thought they had TP protection, who all of a sudden were being droned when issue 13 went live.

I thought they had fixed it. Oh well, I remember a TP attempt against me that failed. Don't think I was mezzed though.

LOL @ all you robots! It's not bugged so stop the QQ, it's your weak PvP 2.0 state of mind!


Pro Tips:

1. Learn to control the game, don't let the game control you.

2. Think protected and you will be protected.


Don't let the bugged TP resistance fool ya.

I may be wrong, but I don't believe TP resist is even flagged for pvp at all. This may be the main problem. Look at CoD (Yes this is the updated one on cohtitan)

Self:

  • RES(Knockback, Knockup) +10000% for 0.75s If NOT on a PvP map [Ignores Enhancements & Buffs]
    Effect does not stack from same caster
  • -10 Knockback, Knockup, Repel for 0.75s If NOT on a PvP map
    Effect does not stack from same caster
  • RES(Repel) +10000% for 0.75s If NOT on a PvP map
    Effect does not stack from same caster
  • RES(Teleport) +100% for 0.75s If NOT on a PvP map
    Effect does not stack from same caster
  • -10.38 Stun, Held, Sleep, Immobilize for 0.75s If NOT on a PvP map
    Effect does not stack from same caster
  • RES(Stun, Held, Sleep, Immobilize) +103.8% for 0.75s If on a PvP map
    Effect does not stack from same caster
  • RES(Knockback, Knockup) +10000% for 0.75s If on a PvP map [Ignores Enhancements & Buffs]

  • RES(ToHit, RechargeTime) +30% for 0.75s If on a PvP map [Ignores Enhancements & Buffs]

Seems to me that it isn't even flagged for pvp in the first place. Because if there is a tag on "If NOT in a pvp map" or "If on a pvp map" is very specific. Sometimes there is no tag on some powers, meaning they still work in both zones... For example, look at Electric Armor's Static Shield:

Self:
  • -10.38 Stun, Held, Sleep for 0.75s If NOT on a PvP map
    Effect does not stack from same caster
  • RES(Stun, Held, Sleep) +103.8% for 0.75s If on a PvP map
    Effect does not stack from same caster
  • RES(Psionic) +26.25% for 0.75s
    Effect does not stack from same caster
  • RES(Defense) +30% for 0.75s If on a PvP map [Ignores Enhancements & Buffs]
    Effect does not stack from same caster
  • RES(ToHit, RechargeTime) +30% for 0.75s If on a PvP map [Ignores Enhancements & Buffs]
    Effect does not stack from same caster
  • RES(RunSpeed, FlySpeed, JumpHeight, SpeedJumping) +50% for 0.75s If on a PvP map [Ignores Enhancements & Buffs]
    Effect does not stack from same caster
Target:
  • RES(Teleport) +100% for 0.75s [Ignores Enhancements & Buffs] [Non-resistable]
    Effect does not stack from same caster
  • RES(Recovery, Endurance) +103.8% for 0.75s [Ignores Enhancements & Buffs] [Non-resistable]
    Effect does not stack from same caster
This may or may not make a difference, but I believe it does.
