Power Sting Node

In the Hades event, whenever I use Hyperion, his debuff count goes crazy and he dies without ever launching a special. What is going on? @Kabam Miike

    Can you record it? You sure aren't using any special attack?

    Dude look at the debuff count. 48 power stings?

    I'm guessing it's because of transducer and his power gain buff, it oscillates between max power and a bit low so the power sting debuffs build up

    The transducer is why so many sting debuffs but not sure why you are dying

    Yes, tha'ts normal. I was asking if you were using any special attack, since you specifically said you died because of something

    Hey there, would you happen to have any footage of him losing health without being hit or launching a special attack?

    As for the number of Power Stings, that is a result of the Transducer node and Hyperion's Power Gain. When he reaches a full bar of Power, even the third one, he gains a Power Sting; the Transducer node drains his Power back down below that full bar but his Power Gain will cause him to refill it, starting that cycle over again.

    You can post it on another website, and provide the link here. Youtube for example

    Transducer and the power gain, you’re constantly going between 2 and 3 bars which retriggers it

    Regarding the losing of health, the pic up top doesn’t show there being any DoT incremental health loss (no RED damage tics).
    So I’m guessing that indeed he is using at least 1 special after accumulating those Power Stings.

    Maybe @Kabam Zibiit can answer, does the multitude of Power Stings have a multiplied effect on how much “Sting” damage is done to you ?

    And as stated, because of Transducer, it would be hard to actually launch an SP3 (which as stated would do it's damage to opponent, including killing opponent, BEFORE the Sting damage is done to you). But most likely you can only end up doing an SP2 with your power bar “just under” 3 bars. And since SP1 and SP2 cause the “Sting” damage to be done to yourself BEFORE the damage is applied to opponent, you can indeed end up dying as soon as you launch SP2.

    And if Zibiit says that each extra Sting Debuff will cause multiplied Sting damage, that can be quite severe with that many Debuffs (48) on you.
