APOC SP3 NOT WORKING in escape from Titan ep3

Probably due to the fact that SP3's only count as 1 hit.
Really? Contribute something meaningful. No node supports your statement. One hit or 12 hit specials gain +200% attack. This fight is bugged.
I'm going off the information the OP gave. I just fight with Apoc. I used a special 2, lots of damage. I didn't do an sp3 on that run yet.

OP doesn't mention not doing ANY damage, just saying an SP3 doesn't work.

We've been told over and over that SP3's only count as one hit. So if it's bugged, it might be that interaction that's causing it.

Nah, the problem is caused by using a basic attack at the same time as you start an sp3. The node is bugged and counts the special as a basic attack.

I had the same happen with one of my champs.

Yes try to use your sp3 after backing off, not during a combo. It worked for me

Try throwing special by not chaining from a combo.

For what it's worth, I can never get a sp3 to work if it's the first special I use. I found that using a sp1 or 2 and then sp3 allowed the sp3 to always give damage.

this makes absolutely no sense! the node prevents 90% damage so even if you managed to trigger it you should still be doing damage.

reposting this in other threads:
another bug that we're going to complain about and then kabam will send out a message saying they'll look into it and 2 weeks later say they'll do nothing about it and we just sweep this bug under the rug and continue playing spending money and wait until the next bug and cry about it.

My man, it's a bug. Not a node design

That's just how it works, man. Kabam knows more about this issue than we do and it's their words, not mine. Go use your sp3 against her without doing a combo beforehand and see what happens.

this type of node has always been this way. sp3 never gets that damage boost sp1 and sp2 get.

same kind of mechanic works for stuff like crit me if you dare + guaranteed crit buff. this doesnt work with SP3 for some reason even if you go into SP3 with a guaranteed crit

It's not intended this time around

Because sp3s cannot crit. They deal neither physical nor energy damage. They don't count for contact or non contact hits. It's how they are. Not a bug

Sp3s do get the boost.

Usually in power shield 2.0 nodes,sp3 sometimes won't work. I had the same problem with bishop sp3 in power shield 2.0 node in another quest

GeneralMerce

this is not that big of a deal

"Regardless, here I am yet again wasting units revives and health on a broken game like a complete jackass"

- its only 1 special that didn't land and you need to spend units and revives??? think of it as if you ended up landing a special into a block. Just build back up and release an sp2. Also, if you do die, you should have champs on your roster still very much alive for this fight. Plus its only 4 fights so if yo die, you can just restart if your roster gets wiped and try again.

Please don't start asking for compensation, the comp calls are getting ridiculous.

that's not how it works man, go read the node. its not my job to do a workaround. if the node does not work properly kabam needs to fix it and be held accountable. players are always finding workarounds for bugs which is why NOTHING gets fixed unless it benefits us then it immediately gets fixed! I just want my revives it costed me; not looking for a compensation just something returned I shouldn't of had to use (no issues on threat 5 weeks 1&2 they were actually fun). apparently any items used during a timeframe in battlegrounds are being returned so do the same for this. its not hard....

Okay, then just complain about it until Kabam dedicates all of their resources to making sure you can pull of a special 3 without having to wait a second first. If you want the revives it cost you, submit a support ticket and see what they have to say, the forums aren't a place to ask for personal compensation. Just don't freak out over such a small issue. You know how to work around it, so do it, or don't. They're working on it, and that's all they can do.
