June 28th 2017 Update Discussion

[Kardas]

I'm gonna look at the update in more detail (and update my reference threads) tomorrow because I am dead tired, but I will say that the Missions idea is pretty cool. Very much looking forward to the Gunner Pharaoh Dog. And props for your ridiculous punctuality NF. Like, this is way ahead of schedule it seems.

Uuuuunfortunately, I've gotten a bit of a problem with this update. Sure, my phone is not the best thing for playing games, but now when I boot up LotB, all FX are gone. Like, Visions and Wicker Man Eddie aren't on fire anymore, Corrupt General's chest is completely black, and Navigator Eddie hits with invisible cannonballs. Also the rewards chest just kind of pops up which is hilarious. And almost all Eddies look even deader than usual because all their eyes (except GRE) are black. It seems to improve performance though!

As funny as this is, this is annoying for PVP because other than their icons, I have no indication of shields being present on characters. And the coinflip does not show up at all.

Also I had no clue Wicker Man Eddie and Holy Smoke were no longer available via souls (is this also true for Soldier?). I will be sure to update my thread on it.

Thanks for the missions. Fun way to use troopers.

Stun on prisoner did not work for me with the Angel, Prisoner, or Visions Eddie. Tho, he was stunned. I did, however, get credit for just using stun on the other mission challenge.

Sucks about SOL, dude is worthless now.

That's odd... if you force close the app and relaunch do you not see them? Keep in mind that they may not be in the same place in the Achievements list based on what other achievements you have or haven't completed yet.

Ok. This happened to me as well, and now I think we may have another issue. I restarted and it showed up, but it's showing as 0/25 for the level 3 achievement. But I went through and completed a bunch of missions since the time when this should have shown up... so is it just an aesthetic issue? Is it counting my missions as 15/25 or whatever they are even though it says 0?

[Sparton_LOTB]

Regarding mission progress sometimes not counting, please be aware that skills which have a chance of occurring will not count as progress if that chance doesn't occur. We are investigating this further to be sure, but if you're having problems, please specify what mission you're having a problem with and what characters you're using to help narrow down potential issues.

Well... that's sort of working as intended, I guess. We did notice that there were a lot of devices that were trying to use full effects/higher res textures but were almost certainly suffering a really bad frame rate while doing so, so we made some adjustments to try and improve framerates/stability for those devices.

Also I had no clue Wicker Man Eddie and Holy Smoke were no longer available via souls (is this also true for Soldier?). I will be sure to update my thread on it.

'Tis also true for Soldier Eddie; he's not been a possible reward for Rare Gun/Assassin Souls, Legendary Souls, and event souls, since you get him for free in Battlefield.

Sparton, since dusk info is not showing could you say what it does per level and such for that skill?

[Rain88]

Removing legendary souls from grand sacrifice , and nerfing balanced characters MCR , SoL and NBoL while leaving OP toons (GCR became more OP now, didn't think it was possible) intact seems like a great idea

But before it worked well for me, now it looks horrible.
Now I will have to buy another phone to play the game like before?

Can someone else confirm that Vampire hunter Eddie's future basic healing move only heals himself, even though the skill's description states "Heals all allies based MISSING HP for every Mark on target"

I cannot get him to heal anybody else except for himself.

Tried using Wrath's, VHE's and Death mark talisman's set marks and none of them healed anyone but VHE.

[Demoonchild]

If a skill level is for "Effect Chance +#%", then that effect chance is for all effects that have a chance (so for that Warrior Undead Rescuer's Guide, it improves the Steal Beneficial Effects and the Heal chance).

Hey Sparton!! This means than Warrior Harpy now can remove benefical effects 100% Maxed?? So, why do you bother on nerf NBOL's and Magus CR??
Sorry if my question seems tricky, but sounds really weird for me....

As always, thanks for taking your time on respond!

There does appear to be an issue where progress does not always continue from the tier II achievement to the tier III achievement. We are investigating the cause and a potential fix.

Sparton, since dusk info is not showing could you say what it does per level and such for that skill?

The data for it is whack, so it only does what it currently says it does on live.

Once the fix is live, it'll be 5/5/10/15/20/25 (all damage ups).

Removing legendary souls from grand sacrifice

Legendary Souls were never a possible reward from the Tier V Grand Sacrifice.

But before it worked well for me, now it looks horrible.

By "before it worked well", do you mean you had high framerate with the previous visuals?

What device are you playing on?

That is a known issue with Claim; right now, it only heals the character using Claim.
