My Newborn of Light Warrior, equipped with strike set, counter attacks my Corrupt Rescuer Gunner after the later casting Resucitate. It removes all beneficiary effects of my Corrupt Rescuer Gunner, mainly his Shields (Repair and Shelll passive) and Endure. The counter can trigger in both case when an allied get revived or not.

A Grim Reaper Eddie attacking with Slash more than once will remove the Void Shield from the defender. Starting from the 2nd attack the void shield will not reflect the attack. If the Grim Reaper Eddie’s Slash attack hit only once, the Void shield remains.

• For the first issue, if a character has more than one "shield", then only one functions. That does mean right now that if you have Shell on a Gunner Corrupt Rescuer, what you describe happens. We intend on changing that in a later update when we do fixes relating to shields.
• The Repair not working if a Prisoner is around is also known, but I don't know when exactly we'll be able to do a fix for that.
• Revenging/countering characters will no longer attack your Gunner Corrupt Rescuer after using Resuscitate in the next update.
• For the Grim Reaper Eddie issue, there is a known issue where, for attacks that "reset" (like Slash), any reflected damage that would happen from the resets happen when the first strike hits, so the damage for the resets is happening, it's just happening too soon. Not sure about the Void Shield disappearing sometimes after attacking though; I've passed that to the team to investigate.

I would recommend clearing cache and redownloading all assets. The most recent update should have checks in place to make sure data downloaded from the server is not corrupted, but more improvements are happening in the next update if a redownload of game assets doesn't work for you now.

I lost the battle but i surely laughed a lot.

Yikes, that's a really strange one. I've passed that to our QA to investigate further.

What Eddie were you using?

Shouldn't the taunt affect next round not the current round?

The short answer is Taunt is working as it always has.

The long answer is Taunt makes it so a character will do a basic attack against the character which inflicted Taunt at the next chance that character gets. Normally that means at the start of your next turn, but if you get it in the middle of your turn, then you'll (potentially) be immediately basic attacking. Similarly, like most other debuffs, the duration ticks down at the end of your turn. That is why the Taunt will go away when your turn ends (like Taunt normally would), which is why you don't have a debuff that lasts longer than it would so it could affect you on another turn. Essentially, Counterstrike and Revenge don't change how debuffs work, they just makes attacks happen at a different time.

Also, while the Sentinel Soulless Demon has the highest AoE taunt chance in the game, the odds of taunting the rest of a team when countering is still fairly low (assuming 1 of 4 team members have gone, it's a roughly 1 in 6 chance of taunting all of the remaining 3).

Sorry about that.

Haha, man! New talisman effect: 75% chance to make the game freeze and force the attacker to quit and "lose" the fight. :p

That make sense?

I don't know if is that your talking but thats what happened to me lol

I've experienced what you guys are talking about here. Because of that annoying effect, I generally save the SSD for last or second to last if he's got a pair of strike talis on. Or, I'll wait to hit him after my other toons have already attacked another enemy toon. Generally, my warrior NoL will disarm that annoying effect after the first attack so that I can then safely dispose of the enemy SSD (warrior NoL is like my very own clutch QB who wins the SB in the last half after being down by over 20 pts! ;)).

The most recent update was supposed to fix this bug? Didn't know that. How might I go about what you suggested to do? Would it be going to the "App Info" screen for LOTB (after going into App settings) and just choosing to "clear cache", or should I "clear data" as well?

Yep, laughed my ass off, thanks for that one. I love fun words, gonna have to start using it.. "You've been bamboozled!!" :)

Have there been server issues as of late? Today alone, I've "lost" 3 fights due to the game timing out after I win the PVP fight. Also experiencing long load times in PVE.

Same happened to me in PvE today, long loads and some crashes.

Hey Sparton, few more bugs, if you guys are not familiar already: one occured today, against magus CR, similar to above, my SSD was invisible, GR' Slash did no damage to him, than CR froze him with power move. Also, on CD's power move, Mummy's BotD and idk what more, circles often won't appear at all. Now, on CD it's not a big deal, but on Mummy it really is. Thanks in advance \m/

Edit: another one-after hitting an enemy with nomad, it's usually my CD's turn, and the target circle just goes to other enemy before I realise and play move, often leading into not killing enemy char 'cause they are low on HP after Nomad's punch.

I checked with our QA, and they recommend if you want to be super safe to both clear cache and clear data, then uninstall and reinstall from the store (just to be super sure you don't have any bad data still on your device and that whatever flavour of Android you're running isn't doing something funky).

Not that I know of, but I've pinged our progammers to triple check and see if there's something that has been done recently which could be the cause of that.

+1. 4 crashes/freezes on games that I won or would win, and all that now when my def finally made a big leap. Only had three real loses so far on attack.
