September 19th 2017 Update Discussion

Sure, it does. But I think it is now as it is supposed to be.

I actually welcome this change, but wanted to see if it was a change for all or just a streak of bad luck on my part.

Sounds like a run of bad luck. Kaz or Sparton just recently said that defense gets no boosts to proc rate. I've seen what you're describing a lot. I think it's hard coded into the game that way, so the devs aren't intentionally lying about it. The other possibility, although I don't think it accounts for all of it, is poor random number generation. The bad RNG I think does explain a lot of why we tend to pull a lot of the same character at times.

It could be coincidence, but since the update every defense I face has proc rates through the roof.
Vampire hunter getting 3-4 extra turns in a row, SSD taunting 3-4 toons every time, counter strikes triggering nearly 100% of the time.
As I said could be coincidence, but I am pretty observant and this is very sudden and noticeable.
My attack win rate dropped 9% overnight, and it's not like a major meta change cause this, I am facing the same teams and toons as a few days ago.
Anybody else notice this or am I just suddenly incredibly unlucky?

Same here, I was playing on my way to work and at first thought I had just gotten sloppy, but I keep losing to teams that I usually wipe out regularly. Something is off, might be proc rates or just perfect hit probability of the defense team...
I'll check my own defense stats, they should benefit from that as well.

I posted previously that the description and the actuality of the boss’s ghost are not jibing. Can’t use permadeath on him either. I used three toons with permadeath, so he was well marked, but still was able to ghost.

I managed to remove the ghost effect with the Magus Undead Rescuer's Raze skill.

I did try this to no avail. But ty. Glad it worked for you. He’s a bore if you can’t get rid of it.

For some reason permadeath only works on the boss after he's already ghosted. I don't know if it's supposed to be like that, but once it hits he dies instantly

I've had this happen as well, but now I've also had multiple instances of him not ghosting when killed with Permadeath active. I know that previously, if you inflicted Permadeath with the killing blow, he would ghost anyway, regardless of if he had Permadeath on before that or not. Might be the same thing now.

I can confirm this.

I can confirm this.
