1) Thread has been answered and the added concern about NF degening past 30% has been passed along.

2) If the issue is now NF appears to be not functioning as described that’s about NF not the fix for Thanos’s intended functionality of heal block. It deserves it’s own report. It’s unreasonable to expect them to address that here, especially when other threads have been opened on it and responded to, it’s the same interaction with Elsa’s aura. https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/162413/nick-fury-v-elsa-bloodstone

2) Repeated accusations about a tangent being ignored and repeated identical demands about how “it should work” are not constructive; quite the opposite.

3) Daily posting of the same thoughts with the intent of bumping a post violates spamming, bumping and petitioning. It also comes close violating rule 10 when combined with other behavior displayed.
3. Off Topic, Spamming, Bumping, Petitions, Dog-piling or repeatedly posting the same post or topic is not constructive. Neither is re-posting a closed or deleted thread. If a thread is deleted, it is done so because it breaks a forum rule

We encourage constructive criticism and dialog, however posts that are intentionally created to wind up or incite the community aren’t constructive and will be removed at the moderator’s discretion. These types of posts typically have no value to the conversation and create a toxic environment for your fellow Summoners.

4) Bumping a thread for exposure does not force Kabam’s hand once they have acknowledged it.

5) The forum rules clearly state the opposite of the assertion that the forums exist as a place to communicate with Kabam; they exist as a space for the players to communicate, Kabam at their discretion may get involved but it certainly is not required outside player’s desires. If you need a direct response support is the go to, after that avenue has been pursued seeking an explanation/resolution here is an option of last resort.

6) Finally, while his heal may not be explicitly described, that is how the game implements his LMD. And that is why we see these things happening with the new mechanics of heal prevention and Elsa’s degen aura. Sucks but also is a niche and not often encountered interaction so it’s not surprising why it’s popped up suddenly or why it isn’t being treated as a dire situation requiring daily updates or repeated affirmation.

So to be clear can we expect Fury to be nerfed for any and all future heal block type nodes? If so this is seriously messed up

His ability description make it clear that he’s not even regenerating in the first place when his decoy is knocked out. He discards his decoy and returns to the fight with degenerating health. Nothing says regeneration in profile but it does say he degenerates. If anything, what is made clear in his profile is that nothing is supposed to prevent the real Nick from returning to the fight.

I’m sure someone who can’t fight against fury is happy about this but there’s really no benefit at all for players and Kabam needs to explain why this is even needed. Fury isn’t costing you anything. There’s already a lot of risk involved in playing with a champ at 30% health that you have to heal up to have any sustainability in subsequent fights even though he just degenerates again, and even more of a pain for players to use with suicides on after the decoy is gone.

Seriously though, how do you rationalize it when the very description of the character states that it's not a regeneration because it's a different character altogether between the LMD and Fury.

This is flat out wrong

Although actually look what happens (in normal fights) when his decoy is knocked out. Fury doesn’t just step in at 100% Health instantaneously. Instead he steps in and the health bar INCREASES over a second or 2 from low health to a full 100 (before then starting to Degen back down to 30).

Could be this 1-2 second duration when he IS increasing his health is considered Regen of some sort. (in which the fights in question are negating).

Just because they took a lazy programming shortcut to bring Nick back to the fight doesn’t change the fact that he isn’t described as regenerating anywhere.

His profile makes it clear that nothing is supposed to stop real nick from entering the fight.

But HOW it was implemented (whether true to his description or not) is probably the reason WHY the problem is occurring. Agreed, if he automatically restarts at full 100% this problem probably goes away.

Yea. Think we’re all already aware of that.

The problem is he’s not supposed to be regenerating. Real nick with degenerating health is replacing the decoy and nothing is supposed to prevent that from happening, as per his profile.

Recode how the decoy is replaced to remove the symbolic and formerly irrelevant +health pop-up, or push a fix to allow him to bypass all forms of heal block as he’s supposed to because he’s not healing— he’s replacing the decoy with himself.

And yes they can recode Nick in a matter of hours as they proved when they changed the code for his goldpool synergy when they got scared that it would benefit players too much.

Would be nice if someone from Kabam could explain to us why they are disregarding the entire logic behind Furys sig ability. It seems like they just don't want to give us a straight forward answer because there is no actual justification for this change.

Still would like a straight answer since Fury isn't "healing" at all...

Here is the problem, there is real world logic in which losing the decoy does not require healing, and there is game mechanics in which they use healing to replicate it. I am not saying this is right or wrong, but healing back to max is how they accomplish this, probably because programming something else would be much more complicated.

This is a blessing and a curse. Him healing seems to make him suspectable to heal prevention, but it also allows him to take damage while he is healing and still heal to full, something that would not happen if he was jsut replaced by his real self.

They should probably make heal prevention not work on him, but also that any damage he takes after the decoy is removed, but before he is at full healthy stick.

The suggestion would be an ideal way to fix the laziness of the character design. He should be able to simply hot swap in at 100% like in any video game with similar mechanics, but the fact that they don’t seem to want to address this oversight is really a bad look.

Almost 2 weeks since a mod posted. People are wondering if this is an intended interaction or if it’s bugged....... and if it’s an intended interaction, Fury users are going to be PO’d.

Yeah and each passing day just leads to more belief that this is a permanent nerf by mode. This isn't a Wolverine character or Omega or any other heal reliant champ, this is NOT SUPPOSED TO BE A HEAL OF ANY SORT! Fury is not healing because he did not take damage, his LMD did and thus the reap Fury is the one who should not require heal, thus he should be immune to this stuff.

The fact that we are being ignored on this is bad enough. What's the deal here?

P.S. Thanks for admitting the intent is to bump.
