Lack of/missing animations

Comment

A character doing literally nothing during an expected swing of a sword is going to look so weird that I'd sure hope that it's obviously a bug.

You can check out a build guide video for that skill and see that every attack has animations. Some of them are shared because casting a fireball and casting a volcanic orb are similar enough that the mage doesn't need to make two different gestures.

Edit: triggered abilities don't have character animations because you need to be able to do stuff at the same time.

Edit 2: wait, do you mean VFX?

I spent hours testing Transplant Rubber Banding issue so you don't have to.

I've done my fair share of troubleshooting issues in my time and I feel pretty confident that this isn't a simple lag issue. I can reproduce it every single play session. It happens at exactly the same rate of progressively getting worse. It happens when my latency is showing a solid line of 22 to 24 MS 100% of the time I check it.

My theory is that there is some kind of event firing off in code that tells the server to update the position in some tiny fraction of a second after the teleport happens to the target position. I believe this delay is intended to be almost instant. I believe that this trigger is supposed to say "the teleport is finished now and the character can move now!" Until the trigger, movement isn't really valid from the client. Other players see me just standing there too.

But there is something wrong in this calculation and that delay isn't constant. It's some kind of time delta that is growing over time (somehow related to the character sessi...

That's not how movement works. I still think it's 2 issues.

With the cost of a key (not 1.1)

So, let me ask you 1 questions... If this were due to ping, wouldn't it be unusual that the amount that I rubber band is exactly based on how long I've been playing without deaths? And that it starts off just being small, like a fraction of a second, but later can become more than 1 or 2 entire seconds (even though other abilities aren't affected?) That it grows exactly in a linear fashion? All of this while latency always shows as good?

If there is some kind of network issue, it's a lot more subtle and esoteric than just normal lag. Though, I think it's a code issue.

No, it wouldn't be unusual. There could be a second issue that's causing it to get worse but I think the reason it's happening at all is because server and client disagree on player location at a specific time index and the server is snapping the player back intentionally.

I could be wildly wrong about this and without having the server logs, it would be almost impossible to tell.

Most common cause of rubber banding, yep. My guess, since his ping is decent is high jitter. Or a modem kicking t3s constantly.

I wish that LE had a test server with an IP we could ping to test these things at 1ms intervals instead of the ~15-30ms of the ingame monitor, but that's a super luxury.

I think if you use something like Wireshark to find out which server you're connected to, you might be able to manually ping it. The delay in game is just the polling interval of the UI. I haven't actually tried this but I did set up the UI in game.

I have no such rubberbanding issues with it that I've ever noticed.

I run a ROG 3080 Strix. Ryzen 9 3900X.

Not sure if it could be a part, but my gaming pc has a dedicated 150/15 connection and my ping to the server is always 35-45ms.

I could see rubber banding on a bad connection to a server. Funny enough, I used to be on us east but have a better connection to us central despite being in the land of bath salt zombies. Try swapping to a different game server or check the ping?

I think you've identified the most likely issue. The client and the server likely disagree on where the character should be because of the time difference caused by higher ping and the server is snapping the player back.

Would you like to see story passives/idol unlocks become account/ cycle linked( so each season you need to unlock idols/passives once, legacy would just be once)

Comment

I'm sorry to kill an idea but this will not happen. Level 1 with 10 passive available is not a scenario we are interested in. I have been successfully lobbying to add passive and idol rewards to other spots though.

Better to find out now than have your hopes dashed reading patch notes. It's been "on the list" for years now. It'll happen eventually.

I know they've already said that the stats panel is getting a rework, I believe for 1.1. No idea if it'll do exactly what you're asking, but you could post the suggestion in their Discord.

edit: corrected by dev

Character Stats Panel is not receiving a significant update in 1.1.

Hand Of Aurelus won't trigger a zero cost Healing Hands from Smite if at negative mana

Comment

Any chance you could make healing hands trigger during warpath hits instead of just the first hit?

I think that would change the intent of the node too much. (assuming this is the node you're talking about)

When you directly use a melee attack and hit at least one enemy, you have a chance to cast Healing Hands around the target. This consumes mana based on Healing Hands's mana cost. Healing Hands restores less up front health when cast indirectly.

Unless you're using Desperate Measures node (top left) to keep casting smite while oom, then it won't trigger.

I think they were mostly being downvoted because of tone, not content. Having the post be endorsed makes the tone feel better I think. Also, it wasn't super negative.

To the people down voting this, we agree with it. Having to rerun the maze is a mistake we made. It is unnecessary.

Shattering question

Shattering does grant a minimum of 1 total affix though so items that only have 1 affix, it does give you at least 1 shard of that specific affix.
