Ares Immortality passive not removing in last phase

It took me 12 shots at taking out the last phase and not once did Ares’ immortality passives reduce like his abilities say they should…. Confirmed bug? I haven’t seen any mention from Kabam acknowledging this.

Yeah it's a bug

Kingering_King

You don’t need it anyway

Chovner

@Kabam Crashed any comment on this?

Folkvangr

He used 12 revives, that is a whole special less to dodge

They confirmed it’s a bug. No clue when it’s going to be fixed. If you are doing multiple paths, you may want to wait for it to be fixed.

I hope this bug can be fixed soon. But it's Friday now, and it's gonna be a long weekend in the US and Canada. So maybe we will see how it goes after next Tuesday.

In addition, it will take a very long time for Kabam to figure out how many items they should compensate to us LOL. I've already explored two paths. And this bug cost me 8 more revives every run on average. The more you've done on Ares, the more compensation you should have. But I don't know if Kabam agrees with this idea.

Anyway, I don't have tons of resources so I had to stop doing my third run just to save some from this bug.

Well, mine was 30 revised for that last phase so I need them

Chuck_Finley

I don’t think there will be comp. And yeah - it’s not going to be a while to be fixed.

I had a few revives expiring, but not the amount needed to slog through. Thought about messing around with 1 run this weekend… but if the whole point is because I have excess revives, and the revive fest fight is busted and taking even MORE revives, guess I will just wait.

It’s just crazy that one of the biggest pro-player benefits of that fight isn’t working. They pumped it up on stream too, so you can’t gaslight this into being a typo either. The fact that it’s still broken and probably will be for at least 3 more days is nuts.

I honestly believe if it was a pro-player bug and it was removing more immortalities than intended, it would have been patched within the hour of it being discovered. No way would they leave it for multiple days like they are this one.

Chuck_Finley

100% agree with this. But be prepared for the disagree brigade to show up and say we don’t understand game programming or personnel resources, etc.

It can’t be disputed it was acknowledged- but it’s buried on some other thread that 99% of the community will never see. No official announcement. No timeline for a fix. No urgency. Why? That’s not an unreasonable question. And a lot of the possible answers aren’t endearing.

DocWest

Lately we are getting some responses, but they are days after a bug has been festering and it’s usually just saying they have eyes on it, but then no follow up after that. I know a timeline is dangerous if it’s not met because of backlash, so that’s why we probably aren’t being given that info. But some of these newer bugs are pretty significant.

From what I can tell, they still haven’t fixed the screen flickering bug that blocks most reward selectors. You have to individually go through support to get it fixed. That bug is close to 2 weeks now. Also the friend list/message bug that won’t let you scroll or click, which has been around even longer. And now this Ares bug. Not everyone is good enough to solo. And not everyone has hundreds of excess revives that they don’t care about burning.

There are other bugs too that aren’t as big of a deal, like all the broken lighting, textures and clothing on multiple champs. It’s just ugly to look at, but doesn’t seem to hurt the gameplay as far as I can tell. I can live with those bugs. It’s the aforementioned ones that are much more significant and frustrating.

I spent 17 revives on last phase, it would have saved me a revive. I hope they put out a compensation package. Wishful thinking

Polygon

Wait this hasnt been fixed yet?

Chuck_Finley

Nope

Smoky4ii20

Is just one charge is not that deep , you can remove 18 avoiding the sp2, and like 10 charges before he throws any specials , complaining about one charge is wild , unless you're trying to kill him with 100 revives lol

Chovner

I do feel like if the bug made more charges fall off with every successful action they would have fixed it already honestly

PT_99

Hopefully compensation coming 🐸

Smoky4ii20

They definitely should give us some extra revives for it .

captain_rogers

Remember how they immediately fixed the side quest bug that allowed people to complete all difficulties. I'm no conspiracy theorist but they do prioritize fixing bugs that benefit us over the ones that hinder us.

Chuck_Finley

With the fix delayed… and say they give out a bunch of gives as comp… where are you are going to spend them in two weeks? Nowhere… unless you stop doing epoch of pain until there is a fix. People pushing through all paths are just getting screwed out of revives whether there is comp or not. The lack of any other content makes compensation pointless.

Which is also convenient for Kabam

Average_Desi

Remember when people were able to get extra rewards from the side quest and they left it as is? Remember when people were not getting points for Pain quest and they fixed it fast? Remember when Howard the Duck got a bug that gave his double armour breaks and they left it as is? Remember when corvus was not draining power and they fixed it fast?

You really think they want their epic end boss to remain bugged for all time?

Chuck_Finley

You really want to go through all the examples of non pro player bugs that were left out there while others pro player bugs were fixed?

Everything you mentioned doesn’t translate directly to units. This Ares bug does. Do they “want” that forever? There is a difference between “want” and “setting priorities” - this obviously isn’t a priority. Even your missing point scenario was communicated widely when it occurred. All we have is a comment in a long thread buried pages back on this forum that they are aware Ares is eating revives incorrectly.

Oh you can try. It's always been about how easy it was to fix and how impactful it is. The Ares bug doesn't directly translate to units unless you're utterly dog***** at the game. But I digress.

I don't care about this but as such . But about the sentiment that Kabam priorities bugs that are "pro player". Moleman was able to hit Maw for a long time before it was eventually fixed. There's so many examples. People just remember the ones that persist.

How much money Kabam must have lost(according to your logic) when Mole Man kept his true accuracy for like 2(?) years.

Chuck_Finley

Thank goodness we have superior skill summoners like you come along to put the rest of the summoners in place.

Never mind Kabam, just leave off the revive/ charge mechanic. We know you already communicated that is how it should work, and it’s in Ares’ abilities but @Average_Desi says anyone complaining about it sucks and probably shouldn’t even play the game.

Average_Desi

Nice strawman but okay. If your plan was to go into the fight 99 times to defeat him, then yeah, you shouldn't be playing that fight. That's the only case where you need units for that fight. Else you can just defeat him from the DSE revives or Free crystal revives.

Graves_3

If it’s a feature of the fight and was advertised as such then it is expected that it work. Telling others they don’t deserve to play or shaming them for their skills for relying on an advertised feature is what is utter dog****

Average_Desi

Yes it's a feature. Yes it should be fixed. I'm not saying it shouldn't be. I'm just saying that the reason it has not been fixed so far has nothing to do with units as some people claim it to be.

Smetira

Why do you want any comp? Your previous comment said one charge is nothing and it doesnt even matter. (Stupidest take I've seen in a while)
