Domino Bug - 'Critical Failure triggers' against 100% ability accuracy attacks [videos]

The_StigThe_Stig Member Posts: 17
I have been dueling Domino with Vision and I am having issues with critical failure triggering in both basic and special attacks against Domino.

Domino's signature ability causes critical failure where "opponents take up to XXX Energy Damage over 1.5 second(s) whenever their abilities have a chance to trigger but don’t. Potency decreases temporarily for consecutive triggers."

In the video, I attack Domino with Vision's special 1 attack, which has a 100% chance to steal power from the opponent according to his signature ability description. On the second special 1 attack, at around 18 seconds, I somehow trigger Domino's critical failure on an attack that has a 100% chance to trigger power drain (i.e. no chance to fail to trigger). It shouldn't be the case that I fail to heal block domino on the special 1 (triggering critical failure) because Vision's ability states that if the special attack drains all power, then the opponent is heal block (Visions description does not say that there is a certain % chance that the opponent will become heal blocked).

In the video I begin a basic attack combo on domino. At the start, I have a critical buff from dexterity. Somehow, this basic attack triggers critical failure. Even if the first hit of the combo (a critical hit) somehow triggers critical failure (which it shouldn't), notice that critical failure triggers twice at the end of the fight (even when there is no critical buff from dexterity). At the very least, the second critical failure that is triggered, should not be triggered, because this is a basic attack from Vision, who has no other possible abilities to trigger (and thus no possible way to fail in triggering an ability) in the middle a basic attack. The first critical failure triggers at 15 seconds; the second critical failure triggers at 16 seconds.

@Kabam Miike or some other moderator, could you please clarify why Domino's critical failure is triggering in these instances? It seems like there is a bug with Domino here.

    I think it's because Assassin mastery is causing the trigger-you decreased her defensive ability accuracy by X%. On that particular hit, her defensive abilities would have still procced, so into the Critical Failure you go! It's horrible, yes. But unfortunately Kabam has made us live with it. Working as intended.

    To add to that, once kabam has milked the community, Domino will be nerfed. Fixed, rather.

    Oh, I miss the jail icon on my avatar.

    Very good analysis and testing mate, great stuff but you think your voices are heard? Forget about it , am used to live with whatever the game decides , just accept it and put more potions to heal our champs no choice tbh

    Domino has ability accuracy reduction.

    So you ability may have 100% chance but she has reduced that down to an 85% chance.
    Meaning it can now fail.

    In regards to the critical buff once again her ability accuracy reduction causes your forst hit to not get the boost associated with this buff. Thefeore failure.

    As much as i dislike domino and her abilities there is no bug here. This is her working properly and correctly.

    I want to know how an attack in which I’m triggering nothing at all (for example visions basic attacks) is triggering critical failure

    Thanks for the reply. Regarding the first video, even if Vision's ability accuracy is now 85%, it's an 85% chance to steal some percentage of Domino's power and Vision's second sp1 attack still completely empties Domino's power level, so that's not the ability that is failing. It seems like Vision 'fails' to re-apply a heal block on domino after completely emptying her power bar. However, Vision's abilities don't say that his heal block is applied according to a particular percentage/likelihood. HIs description just simply says that if the opponent's power is reduced to zero, then the opponent is heal blocked. So again, it seems like critical failure is triggering in a case where it shouldn't.

    Because every attack you inflict has an x% chance to be critical.
