Describe the issue you are experiencing: FIre Staff skill Incinerate will soft lock trees
for targeting all the way up and down the entire model, also boulders, crates, 2x4’s lying on the ground, and the like, but incinerate has massive issues centering and soft locking NPC mobile models and player models. It’s like the tareget point is so small it’s almost non-existent. It’s there, but in the heat of battle it will likely miss (as everyone else has already pointed out) -
Is this a bug or an exploit: Bug
-
(if a bug) How did the issue effect your gameplay: Makes this skill completely useless. (Fire Staff has enough issues with other skills to make it a dubious choice)
-
(if a bug) Were you able to recover from the issue: No, the skill is not reliable as intended. Switched weapons instead.
-
(if a bug) Please include a screenshot or video of the issue that you have experienced: None needed.
-
What are the steps to reproduce the issue as you experienced: Press incinerate and look at a tree model, it will soft lock the tree, you can also launch incinerate onto the branches off the ground. Same with boulders, soft locks them. Then try doing it to a MOB or player, it wont unless you are extremely accurate with where you are aiming. (to the point of it being usless).
Why is incinerate soft locking a tree for accuracy, but not a player or mob? Hmm…
As an interesting note. If I aim at kneecaps and below on the models of a non-moving target, I can reliably hit targets, but try doing that against moving/running targets, those toothpicks are going to be rough to aim at. And this skill has a zero from center radious…so RIP hitting moving NPC targets.
Worked with a partner. Can reliably hit in kissing range with a more top down view, but outside of personal range it’s a crap shoot to where to aim as I cannot reliably get soft lock indication (which is the only indication this will hit or miss the way it currently works)
