Describe the issue you are experiencing:
When my allies (not in a party with me, but in my company) are using the Great Axe, I will be light/heavy attacking mobs, and when they use maelstrom, their maelstrom absorbs my Ice Gauntlet projectiles.
ADDITIONALLY Maelstrom absorbs ICE SPIKE.
If either of these are intended mechanics, they really shouldn’t be, ESPECIALLY the Ice Spike being absorbed. A Great Axe user taking maelstrom in wars/open world dungeons/expeditions should not be detrimental to allied ranged casters, and Ice Spike is NOT a projectile, or at least there is a strong case to argue that it is not, despite it being absorbed by enemy and ally maelstroms alike. -
Is this a bug or an exploit: bug
-
(if a bug) How did the issue effect your gameplay: I’m missing out on a ton of damage when Ice Spike is absorbed by ally maelstroms.
-
(if a bug) Were you able to recover from the issue: it’s repeatedly an issue.
-
(if a bug) Please include a screenshot or video of the issue that you have experienced: I don’t have a GIF but I’ll add one to this post when I get a chance to record it.
-
What are the steps to reproduce the issue as you experienced: Have an ally use maelstrom and try and use basic attacks or Ice Spike (or potentially other projectiles like Fireball) on the maelstrom. The maelstrom will absorb it.
