August 25th 2017 Update Discussion

Still getting constant freezes in arena. Other side was vampire hunter, nomad, allied general and wrath. Killed Vampire hunter while frozen he revived with immortality talismans and no life bar. Killed everyone else but he is there stunned but unable to act. Have lost so many battle this week cause of constant immortality talisman freezes. My team is Magnus Corrupt Rescuer, Solider Eddie, Gunner corrupt rescuer, and warrior pyro solider.

Mark is failing to give the extra turn, this has been happening for a while, any comments Sparton?, most recent occurence was on PVP vs Kamuz, just a few minutes ago.

was it the first turn for vampire hunter, if he got another turn from something else and then cast mark I think it only has 75% chance to extra turn.

Yes I know what you mean the last update mentioned extra turn chance reduction after first attack on PVP, but I thought this applied only to actions that say % of extra turn, not to the ones that say 'Instantly gain an extra turn' (no %, text makes it look as guaranteed), any comments Sparton/Kaz, can you please clarify?

And by the way Sparton/Kaz this is not important but, I am curious, after one completes a level at which time the loot is decided, the moment the last enemy dies, when it says victory and you receive the ironite/gold/sot or until the click to actually open the chest happens?, I think it's when the character dies but can you tell?, thanks.

I believe Sparton already confirmed this. He said it is a bug though. Its back on page 5 of this thread.

This is a bug we thought we had fixed before release (for situations like Warrior/Assassin Child of the Damned's Shadow passive), but it appears the fix did not also work for guaranteed extra turns from skills (such as Vampire Hunter Eddie's Mark).

You can see the rules and decay amounts for extra turn chance in the Character Tuning section of the patch notes.

You are right JJJ, Sparton confirmed it's a bug and it shouldn't happen with Marks, Thanks!!!

There's a bug with Magus CotD blizzard shield..

I've been farming/leveling up toons on Children of the Damned today and I have noticed something strange on the 2nd wave with the 2 Magus CotD. If first applies a blizzard shield, then the 2nd also applies a blizzard shield, some of my team is being frozen BEFORE I have attacked the blizzard shield let alone broken it down. Sometimes Eddie visually has a blizzard shield as well. I'm thinking earlier August update where this toon got a buff has caused something (maybe this was always a possibility but didn't occur until 2+ power per turn made it possible?). Here is a snap shot.

Garden of Dismay Level X just froze on me. Cleared wave 3, start wave 4 and one of thw Corrupt Rescuers is asleep on the floor and then it froze. Bizarre.

I am sure that is a known bug. The fix is to kill the Magus Rescuers on wave 3 first and then it should work OK - it did for me anyway.

Good luck!

This happens to me several times per day (if I've played) and it's been doing so for many months. I think it might even have been there from the start for me, and I started playing a week or so after the game was first released. Also, it usually gives two notifications at the same time.
