Slumber Node in Dungeons Working as Described?

In Dungeons, is there a reason an opponent under the Slumber debuff would gain power when hit? The node reads:

"For the first 15 seconds, the Defender is Stunned and Power Locked, after which the Defender gains a permanent Fury passive increasing Base Attack by 1000%"

Facing a Hela miniboss yesterday with no other nodes on her, she gained power when I hit her while stunned. Am I missing something? Please advise...

No other node @Haji_Saab

I've fought that node multiple times and never experienced any of the champs, including Hela, receiving any power gain

DrZola

Thank you @R4GE . That's what I thought--I wound up clobbering her nearly to her Sp3 before I realized she was gaining power while stunned. Opted to keep hitting because she was nearly done--of course, she woke up with 523 health, an Sp3, 1000% attack boost and an angry disposition.

So it must have been a bug.

The first time I fought this node the same thing happened. The next room had the same node, but no power gain that time.

Medusa gave me a nice surprise on that node yesterday.. Was hammering away with Magik and went to slap her with an SP2 to finish the job and Medusa autoblocked with a few seconds of her slumber remaining and preceded to wreck me. Can’t help with your question but just wanted to share lol

DrZola

Yeah @TheRealmKeeper you have to deal quick, heavy damage to make it worthwhile.

My issue is the node not working as described unless I'm missing something about Hela that allows her to override the Power Lock. I've searched my Hela description and don't see anything.

I’d assume not since he doesn’t automatically begin with reflect stun. So far just Medusa’s auto block and Kingpin with other debuffs applied have been confirmed to wake up early.

Off topic - Slumber on cosmic/skill day is awesome with Jane foster.

I faced one who did not.

Same for me.

DrZola

But Hela doesn't have tenacity or the ability to shrug off, right?

Given that mods don’t seem interested, I figured I would submit a ticket to the crack Kabam support staff. Would be nice to know whether this is officially a bug or just another unexpected random crapshoot programming surprise ...or something actually supposed to happen. DZ

Wait that's not normal? I almost died from an SP3 from that lol. Definitely a bug then. Could barely kill the opponent before the stun ran out.

She still hits like a noodle mate. I have her as a 5 star r3, even put some sig stones in her. She's garbage lol. When's rank down tickets

Haha I don’t believe it is normal. Node clearly states stunned AND power locked for 15 secs.

That's pretty interesting. And you're sure there were no other nodes? What champion were you using? I am not ready to confirm this as a bug yet, but it is something we can look into.

Also, because I have seen the question here.... Yes, Black Panther (Civil War) can reflect the stun to you. Avoid leaving that node up on him unless you want plan on taking him down before he can get an Armor Up buff, or can nullify it!

Spera

Happened to me also
My champion = wolverine
Opponent = kill monger
Dungeon = 5
Node = slumber
Kill monger was stunned but not power locked

@Kabam Miike Absolutely certain. I have a SS I am happy to send you with the active buffs. Unfortunately, it’s too big a file to drop in here while I am on my phone. I was using my 5* GR.

Here’s the pic @Kabam Miike

On a side note, fun node when it works as described. If I’ve missed something about Hela’s abilities, then let me know.

Dr. Zola

DrZola

What I'm wondering is whether I happened at some point in trying to deal damage to use GR's Sp1--which would Fate Seal Hela and remove this "buff." Honestly, I don't think I did, but that's the only possible explanation I can come up with.

Dr. Zola

MasterFlint

This happened to me also, but not consistently.

Bendy

I think it happened to me on a few champs one was black widow other was a civil war bp can't remember about others though

DrZola

Yeah, I truly don't know what is going on. Now that I have canvassed other sites, it seems like I'm not the only one who has faced it. I suppose in my case it is theoretically possible GR Fate Sealed Hela; however, I've encountered several others who have had an issue with the node not functioning as described.

I can back up that BPCW on the Slumber node reflected the stun as soon as I hit him. I was then stunned, and he proceeded to combo me. It was definitely a shocking moment. You don't for get that. I was expecting 15 seconds of getting it done as fast as I could, but after my first hit, the tables had turned, and I was getting the beating.

Thats why I specifically stated the slumber node. Your hits are basically crits for 20 secs (or however long slumber lasts). thats like ~40-50k damage in 10 hits with r5

NinjAlan

That node also starts with a short attack, I've had to Parry it each time I face it

Also the nodes where the opponents is supposed to be stunned for 1 000 seconds is a great joke, never Worked

NOOOOOOOOPEEEEE

They aren't supposed to be stunned for 1,000 seconds they are supposed to be stunned for 15 seconds and once that stun is gone they get a 1000% attack increase.
