    The fact that we are not getting confirmation tells me it's not a bug

    Isnt it in the patch notes that it’s a fix ? @Kabam Miike

    Can you clear this up ?

    The patch notes only speak about ability accuracy interactions, from what I could see

    I'm actually amazed how many people are able to somehow convince themselves this isn't a bug, or shouldn't be considered a bug. It is theoretically possible to use this feature to take no damage indefinitely. It doesn't matter how much "skill" it takes to do that: that's the very definition of an exploitive bug. I don't even have to read the ability description or the patch notes to know that, and anyone who thinks that's an ability any game developer that isn't suffering from severe brain damage would give to players of a fighting game is nuts.

    Nice, back to a worthless sp2/3!

    Worthless how?
  • Bwest289Bwest289 Member Posts: 183
    Sp3 does nothing in war at all right now.

    Landing an sp2 has been broken since day 1, and the ONLY thing those indestructible charges do is help against an sp3 (unless the sp3 comes w DoT which makes it useless again)
  • chunkybchunkyb Member, Content Creators Posts: 1,453 Content Creator
    How's his L2 broken?

    Just don't rely on the L3 in war unless you're in a bad spot and need some space.

    Honest question, btw.

    A way to go kabam we can never except something good from u guy's. at Lest make he's Indestructible a bit useful some how or change to Indestructible armor or something. U can call negating damage from block's as indestructible my own opinion that's all.

    It gives indestructible charges that work differently than any other indestructible in the game.

    Landing an sp2 after anything more than a 1 hit "combo" is a **** shoot at best.


    I don't feel like it should counter bane or nodes of the "passive" Debuff sort but it should counter active debuffs just like other indestructible charges do.

    Hey y'all -

    Thanks for bringing this to our attention! We confirmed this as a bug and will be working on getting resolved ASAP. Once we have more information on it we'll update this thread.

    Funny how there was a crystal pack with killmonger released today and you couldn't have confirmed this was a bug before pushing the pack. Honestly not surprising, but that's so unfair to the people who watched seatin's video then bought your pack with a character you put in knowing it was bugged.

    Understood. I love him lol. Not too hurt about this being a bug. But I've never had complaints about his specials either. All or none is a crapshoot for sure if you're taking him there.

    BUGS vs BUFFS vs NERFS
    Just fought a 5* r4 duped Medusa on node 18..easy fight with mephisto..soul imprisonment..no furies..right?
    NO..she was getting furies while being imprisoned...
    Cought me by surprise...cost me a kill..!
    Another member in my ally fought an UNDUPED hella..and he got indestructible at 1%....!WHAT'S GOING ON..????

    At least I had fun using this bug to my advantage while it lasted. Having a 4/55 Sig 200 KM with the bug helps a lot in Uncollected and harder content anyway.

    RIP OP Killmonger 2018.

    @Kabam Miike @Kabam Lyra @Kabam Wolf @Kabam Zibiit @Kabam Vydious if you change KM, you need to change it for any and all champions who go indestructible such as Hela, Punisher, the Heindel synergy, ect. You can't bleed Punisher or Hela when his ability triggers.

    @Gamer a bleed is a bleed. Punisher doesn't become bleed immune. He's indestructible. Same with Hela. Its really hard to keep the indestructible charges when your an average player. You lose the charges from blocked hits. So unless you're flawless in fighting and intercepting you lose those charges fairly fast. If you could spam his sp1 and gain the indestructible I'd say he's OP, but building to his sp2 it's hard for 87% of the people in the game to keep up the charges up full time.

    Except that it's not a bug. His abilities clearly state that he gains 3 indestructible charges, so there is no reason why his indestructible charges shouldn't be able to do everything indestructible from prove yourself node, LC, heimdall's synergy can do, as long as he has at least one charge, so this is actually working as intended.

    It is also not an exploit. An exploit would be something like the hela bug with heimdall synergy, which needed no skill whatsoever to do, just a synergy. However, to maintain KM's indestructible charges takes some skill, that many people will not be able to do.

    I'm gonna start this by saying again that I would love if they kept this and just changed the wording, but it is in fact a bug and there is reason why his indestructible is different from other forms of indestructible. The difference is all about the wording. Prove yourself: "is indestructible as long as the Attacker's Combo Meter is below 15". Luke Cage: "become indestructible and ignore ALL incoming damage for X seconds". Heimdall synergy: "gain both an Indestructible and an Unstoppable buff which last for 2 seconds". Killmonger: "activates 3 indestructible charges. A charge is spent to ignore all the incoming damage FROM AN ATTACK". Yes, it could be argued that it should negate damage from debuffs applied by the opponent's attacks, like Wolverine's bleeds or Hyperion's incinerates, but since a blocked hit is enough to use up a charge, then shouldn't a single tick of DoT be using up a charge also? Also, things like Caltrops, Bane, Dorm's degen don't come from attacks, so they shouldn't be affected at all by the charges. Again, I would love for this to stay and the wording just be changed, but it just blows my mind that people keep saying it's no different than other forms of indestructible when it's literally right in the wording.

    In all fairness, The Black Panther suit in the Civil War Movie was Bulletproff (so I assume it can be knife/blade proof as well), so wouldn’t that mean that he should be bleed immune? Also, if that’s the case, then shouldn’t KM be bleed immune at least when he gains his Indestructable charges from using his SP2? Kabam doesn’t have to make KM outright Bleed immune, but maybe after an SP2, that’s be fine.

    I swear, sometimes I don’t understand why half of the player base hates these changes (bug or not) and why the other half loves them. Does it have to do with making the fight against all KMs tougher? If so, then shouldn’t making him unbleedable after an SP2, work to attackers advantage? Because then he doesn’t gain extra power from debuffs?

    Maybe people should look at the advantages that could come from this? I dunno

    It's a bug. It shouldn't be working like it was. It was not ment to work that way when he was created and designed, and almost sure this was in their minds when the character was created.
    Not working as intended = Fix for it. They don't want to buff Killmonger at this point, or they just don't want to buff him this way
  • CleverNameHereCleverNameHere Member Posts: 34
    The problem is this question of bug or buff has been around for a few days now. It should not be that difficult for Kabam to decide and communicate if it is a bug or buff. The fact that it takes this long to "figure out" on their end is troubling.
  • BarathKUBarathKU Member Posts: 26
    I'm recently experiencing damage immunity playing killmonger especially while the opponent uses special 3. Does anyone face the same?
  • Eb0ny-O-M4wEb0ny-O-M4w Member Posts: 13,944 ★★★★★
    He should take no damage if he has an indestructible charge
