Sweet.

Once locked in this state (showing the up arrow icon) only ATSKNF can be used and squad cannot fire their bolters.

I thought this had been fixed by adding a common cooldown to every ammo type. Do you have a replay featuring this?

Yes, attaching it. It happens around the 19 min mark. Also since the sarge is apparently the last to die i'm obviously wrong about the trigger. For some reason I just assumed the next best model took over the sarge banner upon his death.

Sterngaurd sarge can die. He can just be reinforced at base like a normal member though and has the same stats as the other members.

Damage from Apoth purification vials lasts way longer than the visual indicates. The green goop left behind by the explosion disappears after about 5 seconds but the AoE damage lasts about 15.

Units also complain about being in close combat when taking damage from the nade, but that's hardly a big deal.

Is the Force commander intended to hit your whole squad from half a screen away with the thunder hammer while using battlecry?

No matter the distance between your squad with the force commander, as soon as the force commander connects with a model that remained behind that model could sprint away and be almost out of sight, but the thunder hammer would still magically hit and knockback the whole squad even if they are in the fog of war, it looks really stupid, can the hitbox of the thunder hammer be fixed?

not a hit box issue; it just needs to do a standard special instead of never missing,

The special is tracking. It is specific to the weapon, that's intended.

indeed, but it doesn't need to track and it's stupid, both visually and in terms of pathing with units straggling behind. standard aoe knockback would work fine.

There's a new issue with targeting and attacking enemy units. If you mouse over them the attack cursor doesn't come up at all. It just makes your units move to basically where the enemy is standing. I couldn't target gens or enemy squads. In some cases I could only attack a generator after it was neutral.

I had this bug a few days ago, first I couldn't target friendly commanders to revive, then I partially lost the ability to target enemy squads. I say 'partially' because it still worked some of the time. Weird shit.

Yesterday I had a similar issue where I couldn't cap a power node with my sluggas and had to tell my teammate to do it for me.

i've had issues with reviving commanders before; both with being unable to click them, i think because they're too far into the ground, and with the hero not being able to move close enough. sometimes gens are hard to target as well.

This has been a bug since forever. I used to get it all the time in retail. Something goes awry with the mouse pointer and you need to zoom all the way in to target something or capture points. It usually goes away by itself. Was sometimes accompanied by the camera getting stuck, which you can fix by opening and closing the player list top left.

Camera bug is also cleared by clicking left + right mouse buttons simultaneously.

I'm sure this has been mentioned before but there are lots of problems with retreating while knocked down. If your unit is knocked down while trying to use an ability, you can't retreat until he gets back up.

I have lost my Painboy several times when trying to use the heal on himself before retreating but getting knocked down by Full Auto or whatever before the heal activates. Same thing happens to other single entities.

Any thoughts? I guess the thing to do is just retreat without using any abilities if there's any form of knockback in the area.

Not sure I understand your problem. If a model is knocked down, it must get back up before running again, yes? That's not a bug. It's not supposed to retreat by crawling...

yes but normally if you hit retreat while knocked down, the retreat icon pops up above your head while you're still down, and you start to take less ranged damage. right? or does the retreat icon that pops not actually indicate retreat until you get up?

the problem is that you cant retreat so a squad of shotgun scouts can just kill your painboy before he gets up, melee not required

This is a very well known bug and there is nothing you can do about it. The only way to fix it would be to make knockback cancel ability commands. I'm losing my hero because of this in almost every 3v3.

You're not in retreat while the icon has not appeared. It will appear even on a kb'd unit as long as nothing (like an ability or a capping command) denies it.

Canticle of Absolution adds health (Shields) to Sentinels.

probably rhinos too then.

Yeah had this bug too but it only gives energy no shield or something like that

Really? Looked to me like the beige bar (which earlier represented shield) was filling up.

Yeah i know it was in retail. But now the energy is just visual nothing more

Good then! Never mind.

Slaanesh didn't tell ya ?:D

Too busy with daemonette it seems .

Mekboy's battery pack grants extra armor to the sentinel, i would guess it does the same to the chimera and leman.

Energy no extra armor

I found out that the doom of maln'tai's paroxysm will damage the HQ and buildings.
I think this a bug. 4 paroxysm can destroy the HQ.....

This isn't a bug just a name change I noticed. Bloodletters are classified as infantry and not daemons, same goes for blood crushers who are classified as vehicles and not daemon.

Was this intentional?

Bloodletters-Infantry armor, BC-Vehicle armor
