0 HawkSoft Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 A beta build should not have any catastrophic bugs but is very likely to contain *annoying issues* both known and unknown. I am currently running the beta because I want to help make the first release of v3 as good as it can be and so far I am impressed with the overall quality. For me, getting to try out and provide feedback on the updated gameplay is a bonus.
0 Gromnir Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 aloth is having the non-firing issue similar to our priests. the issue began after using wall of fire for the first time. am suspecting that the non-firing issue for aloth is related to wall o' fire.

0 Wolken3156 Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 It happens with Wall of Thorns as well, which sucks since I love the Wall spells =(
0 Aarik D Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 Hey guys, I tried out the spells you mentioned and I was able to cast it fine. Can you offer any addition information? Were you guys interrupted by any chance? Who were you fighting? Are the AI casting the spell or are you? What AI settings do you have on? Thanks! Obsidian Discord || Grounded Discord

Were you guys interrupted by any chance? Who were you fighting? Are the AI casting the spell or are you? What AI settings do you have on? The enemy I experienced this on was the Sky Dragon. My Druid would cast Wall of Thorns and while the spell will successfully go off, any other spells he attempts to cast afterwards would play the casting animation, but would have no effect. I had AI settings completely disabled.
0 Dr. Hieronymous Alloy Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 One instance of this that I've seen, at least, seemed to occur with my cipher on rare occasions where the spl target moved during the casting animation. My cipher would freeze in "casting" pose and constantly rotate towards the spell target without the spell ( or rather in this case Power) actually ever firing. I'm not sure if that's the same problem these folks are talking about or not. Either way it was a fare problem and difficult to reproduce and usually fixable by just casting a different power one time.
