520 lightning armor vs bounty cull tasks 12/28/2016 10:47 PM CST


Could 520 lightning effect stunning creatures count for bounty tasks? I haven't tested the 435 versions on time stop (550) and whether they counted as well but if they don't could they? I think this would be in line with how other spells are currently working.

I'm not clear here - Stunning won't kill a creature, so 'counting' for that (bounty completion) doesn't make sense. But 520 shock effect does stun any creature that can be stunned, bounty-assigned or no, based on my experience. So I guess I just can't get my head around the ask.

Or maybe it is just me. I don't understand this one, either. ;/

Most disablers that deal no damage count for culling creature/bandit tasks, including 410, 316, and 1120, so it is correct that this is inconsistent with other design setups. Whether that is intentional or an oversight is the question.

He's talking about getting credit for his bounty. i.e. he 520 shocks a bandit, other group member chops its head off and it dies.

You don't have to actually kill something to get bounty credit for it.

Like other disablers, the stun effect will now contribute toward your kill.

Thank you very much for this quick fix. Can 610 also be reviewed to provide this benefit?

Ahh, see - that works. Soloist and all that, that's not where my mind went. I just like to see them stand around waiting for me to get back into the fray. And needless to say, I get that credit.

Thanks, Methais!

So long as you are doing these things. What about reflecting arrows with a shield?

Sweet is the sound of the pouring rain,
And the stream that falls from the hill to plain.
Better than rain or rippling brook,
Is a mug of beer inside this Took.

How about Feint? I'm forcing stance and inflicting RT and then everyone else gets the kills =[

Stunned is not equal to Paralyzed.

Not that this means that it shouldn't work. Only that by the spell definition given you have not met the criteria for it to work.

As Robert pointed out, that's not a stun.
