Is this a bug and has anyone else experienced it?

3 or more times today when I was RvRing I got a series of MAD resists on my nukes.

The target I was nuking on would just run off (or towards me) and I could be resisted upwards of 8-10 times in a row, ok that I do get resisted at times but not that many times in sequence...

For example, me and 2 friends ran a bit in Emain and we targeted an enemy, all 3 of us started nuking him, me and one of the others got resisted for a total of almost 20 nukes in a row and the third one got an "out of view" message.
Situation was we messed him and another guy he was running with and killed the first one other one still messed. We then switched to him and got this result, he didnt even loose speed when we nuked him (and it wasnt SoS cause he wasnt a mincer) so ofcourse he got away.

Strange indeed


Has anyone else noticed any fishy things with resists?

Uhm, not with resists. But I often get something else in target while clickin on enemy players. Worst case was a Ranger who got away cause I got an apk guard in my target by clicking on the Ranger. I couldn't do anything against it.

Sojourner ML 9: Phase Shift - Become immune to damage for 10 seconds, but cannot attack. Costs 50 fatigue

More than likely that.

Just to add to Usps reply.. when you attack someone who has phase shift active all melee/bow attacks are shown as missing, and all spells are shown as being resisted..

When they use phase shift the animation for it is a yellow cylinder with 3~ pulses running along it's length (same as when you use atlantis tablet artifact to become a croc..). also, for me atleast, the animation sometimes doesn't show when people use PS (about 5% of the time maybe) which is really really annoying since I waste lots of power on them then x<

dunno, on my chanter I see some weird stuff..

both colddebuff and heatdebuff have extreme resistrate nomatter what I target in RVR. Compared to stuns/nukes/pbae they resist a heapload more. This has been the case for along time now.

Yesterday I had one debuff and then 3 nukes resisted in a row on a mage... such fun :<

Phase Shift is cool.. I use it to get inside a keep under attack.. Sneak up near the attackers.. use PS.. /y enter/exit and dance with the ones trying to beat me up.. But shouldn't the ones trying to hit me get some kind of mesage in their chatwindow.. something like "cannot be attacked" or "immune to PvP" or something.. ?

I use it quite abit in RvR on my ranger Spinesprout; and notice how alot of people do not know what it is and are still trying to nuke me etc..

Mostly use it on MOC'ing casters to either get away OR get to them; set a GT for Forceful Zypher and pwn them even with MoC :)

As Onigirl mentioned if you're a spell caster you get a spell resisted message, if a melee you get missed. For me as a spell caster it normally means that if I miss the ML animation for phase shift I'll normally blow at least 3 casts before I suspect something is up. Really should be a different feedback message so at least you know it's phase shift. Either that or a nice graphical effect that is up for the duration of the ML.

and get pwned nevertheless :twak: :kissit:

Aye I get pwned quite alot; yet I come back mostly solo. As a rule of thumb I add on everything unless I know the victim is never adding either.

I try to solo alot and surely I get killed alot.. Mostly I come back; seek revenge; sometimes I get it, sometimes I dont.

Tough luck really; but thats the game :) And Im sure to show you 'pwned' when (as if) we meet 1 vs 1

only thing that really sucks with phaseshift is that its not completely failsafe, if someone had prepared a critshot or smthing before you pop it, then it still hits you, as well as some ml abilities which it simply doesnt cover, but ofc its still better than taking all hits :)
