December 22, 20178 yr Throughout both versions of the Beta, I've noticed enemies dying randomly, even while in pause, with no indication as to who killed them: I just figured out how: with a hotkeyed ability (e.g., Strike the Bell or Knock Down), you can press the hotkey, click on an enemy, and it'll apply the damage while in pause. You can do this repeatedly, cancelling and re-targeting, and enemies will die while in pause.
December 22, 20178 yr Does this work with any hotkey, or only with "K"? PoE1 useful stuff: attack speed calculator, unofficial patch mod, attack speed mechanics, dot mechanics, modals exclusivity rules PoE2 useful stuff: community patch, attack speed mechanics, enemy AR and defenses
March 18, 20187 yr Author Does this work with any hotkey, or only with "K"? I had no idea what this meant when I first read it and forgot about this topic. Then I came back to the beta and realised hovering over and hitting "Q" applies damage regardless of hotkeys or pause and "U" and "K" automatically kills them. I guess this is a dev cheat codey thing to get through fights quickly?
March 18, 20187 yr Solution Yes. But you can turn it off by disabling cheats, if it's uncomfortable. P.S. Btw, Q does exactly 1/4 max hp damage. So the mouseovered target will go from Unharmed->Healthy->Hurt->Bloodied->Dead.
