WTF Moment.... Timing of damage?

Everything in the purple shaded region (sans time master) happened within the space it took for me to start moving. Throughout the entire time time master was on me, I was holding the "move backwards" key down, trying to get back into a fort with a broken door. Add it up. 3419 damage. Three enemies. Only one of them a barbarian, and one that wasn't doing normal hits. WTF? How is this possible?

Yeah this happens to me a lot now. I think a whole bunch of this ACTUALLY happened when they shouldn't have been able to attack, during time master.

Oh and before anyone points out the prickling ivy, I invite you to consider (a) the two normal hits before it, and (b) the animation for pricking ivy did not show up until I was a corpse.

I only seem able to see the top 2 hits on the large version, rest stays black =s

You have been defeated, Pissed off, completely raped by LAG!!!

smashing keys cant save you either i tried

I dont think that was lag, he shouldnt have been able to take any damage during time master, at all....and even if prickle was set off before time master went, then it should have showed up on screen before freeze of timemaster , and btw ara, happens to me plenty on my conju...sanc isnt worth the mana anymore..

I was puling 360ms at the time (which is good for me), I don't think it was the lag....
Having said which, Time Master did seem to go on longer than it should have. A lost packet maybe?

Gawyn_Trakkand · 09-30-2009, 08:45 PM

360 is massive, mines usually 150-180 and i always play a laptop (cant play desktop feels weird)

It shouldn't have been packet loss that acts similar to a ping spike or Lag but it could have just been a random really crappy bug :/ afterall we are in the midst of a new update. Or... maybe the devs hate you XD all could be reasons

Time Master = Freeze and he got raped like a little schoolgirl when he should've been frozen and not taking damage at all. So yeah, game mechanics fail.

It would be nice to know if any of the people who hit me saw me standing there like a gormless idiot (I mean more than usual) for about, say, 2 or 3 seconds immediately after time master wore off... And I mean before I was resurrected (I was busy playing with the GIMP at that point).

Same thing happens to me. I get frozen, or time mastered, and i can literally see peopel still hitting me, but log shows nothing..... UNTIL time master/freeze wears off, and ALL the damage piles on at one time, and im usually dead by then.

This is a serious problem, the spell descriptions are CLEAR, target cannot attack NOR BE ATTACKED while under these immobilization spells. But we clearly are still being attacked.
