Domino+Red Hulk Synergy broken on power shield

Luke208080

On a power shield node, in the master difficulty of the current symbioid daily events, I brought Domino and RedHulk. After a heavy, the incinerate debuff popped up, but punisher took no damage. Happened all fight. I have a video, will try and post.

After a heavy using Domino, I should add.

This would be a bad blow to someone if they found this out in AW.

Power shield only allows the defender to take damge from specials. The synergy cause incinerate damage equal to the amount of heavy damage done over 2 seconds. Since heavies cause 0 damage it should be 0 incinerate damage

@NightCracker said it all. Powershield means basic attacks deal no damage. This includes heavy attacks.

Haha, this is the first thread I've seen where the word broken actually means broken.

He's not talking about the heavy doing no damage he is saying the debuff incinerate came up and did no damage which is broken. As a way around power shild is to use heavy DoT champs. My personal favourite is AA.

When you have several neuros up and throw a special... that feels good

@Patchie93 and if you read the synergy description, the incinerate damage is based on the damage dealt by the heavy. For example, if the heavy dealt 1000 damage, the incinerate would do 1000 damage over 2 seconds. If the heavy did 0 damage (which is the case for power shield), the incinerate does 0 damage over 2 seconds.

I don't have domino so didnt know that about the synergy. Good to know and makes sense

Ahh, good point taojay1. I was looking for the incinerate damage like bleed, but it is based on attack dmg which in that case is 0. Womp womp.
