MM Pets and Interface

I actually made a thread about this in the i22 bug section, but thought I should inform people anyway. :3

Quote:
I've been doing a bit of testing with my Thugs/Dark MM using the Rikti practice dummies post-issue22, and they barely seem to be triggering Degenerative Radial Flawless Interface (75% proc toxic, 25% debuff HP). Using my MM's personal attacks, it triggers fine, but the pets seem a bit off.

BRUISER: I had the Bruiser fighting against the dummy for five full minutes and it didn't even trigger once.

ENFORCERS: The Enforcers are the same way, they cannot trigger Interface either after fighting for five minutes.

THUGS AND ARSONIST: The Thugs and Arsonist individually tested, trigger it as normal.

GANG WAR: All Posse members can trigger Interface.

Is this working as intended or is either Degenerative or Thugs bugged? It seems odd that only the Tier1 pets can trigger Interface while the Tier2 and Tier3 can't. If someone has other MM classes or Interfaces, could they help test it please?
So input your data and findings and hopefully we can see if this is working as intended or not. o_O

There was a bug when Interface first got introduced (pets weren't procing) and then later they fixed it. Hopefully the bug doesn't appear again.


What's left is to normalize all Assassin Strikes and improve Stalker's old sets (Claw, MA and EM)! You don't need to bring back the missing PbAoE attack. You just need to make the existing ones better! For example, make Slice a WIDER and LONGER cone.

Right now, post-Issue22, it's affecting part of Thugs and Degenerative, so I need people with MMs to help test. Whatever they did to fix Lore Pets and Interface apparently broke MM Pets and Interface, haha.

Did you test against real enemies instead of dummies?

If I remember, I'll take my ninja/ff out. They use reactive.

For all intents and purposes, the practice dummies are enemies. You can see the procs triggering by the graphical display each proc has.

Just took out my Ninja/FF and Reactive procs just fine. I just found some lowbies to kill in Grandville.

I can see the graphic and see the DoT damage clearly.

I don't know if dummies are different but I guess it's a bug if you don't see the toxic DoT on regular enemies. I know Reactive works.

Did you test each tier individually?

Yup. I specifically summoned Genin first, dismiss, Jounin, dismiss and then Oni.

I did not summon them all together as it's a bit hard to tell.

I also don't have Degenerative. At least I am 100% sure Reactive works.

Arbiter Hawk replied to me saying it appears Thug's Bruiser and Enforcers are bugged, though he didn't say if any other Interfaces still work with them or not. Anyone else got Thugs and other Interfaces to check?

Against actual enemies, Bruiser rarely procs it, a lot less than what 75% chance to proc would seem to suggest. I had him running solo around Grandville smashing things, and the graphic toxic proc rarely showed on enemies.

Enforcers can proc it, but not as often as the Tier 1 Thugs, which is odd... perhaps some attacks aren't flagged to allow Interface to proc?

Against the Rikti practice dummies, it's weird, since the Tier 1 Thugs can proc against them often. In fact, ALL of my non-MMs with Interface can regularly proc against them with the Tier3 or higher Interface.

Ah.... very odd that some MM pets are bugged. I thought it would affect all of them.

Just hit 50 with Thugs/Traps. I took him to 51, then got the Total Radial (tier 3) Spectral.

I tested it on dummies, and ALL of the pets proc it - tested them individually. The brute procs it the least since he attacks slower than the others.

It also procs with gang war all the time.

This was just with watching the circle effects of Spectral Interface on the dummies.

It goes off with Acid Mortar, Caltrops, Trip Mine, but I could NOT get it to ever proc with Seeker Drones.

Apparently Seeker Drones aren't proccing anything, according to the devs. I'm sure that will get fixed down the line.
