What is your character name in New World: Dr Stone
What server/world did you experience your issue on: Yggdrassil
Describe the issue you are experiencing: Video shows precisely the issue and tested multiple times. When aiming down/at feet and on any structure that isn’t the ground itself, the gravity well will disappear and the cooldown will be consumed. New World Grav Well Bug - YouTube
Is this a bug or an exploit: bug
(if a bug) How did the issue effect your gameplay: makes gravity well unusable in many cases or at the least very difficult to use as you have to make sure you are aiming waist or above if you are on anything other than the ground level.
(if a bug) Were you able to recover from the issue: no, this issue is repeatable and the video shows it being tested and impacting multiple players using the same ability
(if a bug) Please include a screenshot or video of the issue that you have experienced: Unlisted youtube video New World Grav Well Bug - YouTube
What are the steps to reproduce the issue as you experienced: stand on the ground and use grav well while aiming down/low, it will work. aim low/down when you’re on a structure/stones/stairs etc and aim down/low and it will disappear
When did this happen? (Date and Relative time; please include your timezone) noticed immediately prior to the newest patch tonight however this has been persistent for quite some time.
Can confirm beacon is still broken as well. Definitely stinks that this is still going on even with repeated bug reports on it. Hopefully they see this one. I’m hoping the video of the grav well helps… sounds like they are working on fixing the beacon one too. as a healer main who uses beacon, its definitely tough, but I’m going to play through it and remain hopeful. been playing since alpha as well and they’ve made massive improvements since then as I’m sure you know since you’ve played since then too.
The only fix to AOE’s that i’ve seen listed in notes was a bug related to damage AOE’s. To date i have not seen a fix posted about persistent ground effect AOE yet aside from them being listed as a known issue.
