This has to be a troll.
And I'm not falling for it

Because it's an existing node and they are not going to change it just for your happiness. Why would they make a new node when they can keep an old one, you have heal block on you for different reasons not due to this one node. Oceanliner of ignorance and knowledge was an understatement.

HE CAN'T

You're not going to heal no matter what. Just stay away from the opponent when the timer is about to end

And we're back to the circle of not understanding....

Well I tried.

You did. Win some, lose some.

The fight designer didn't write anything. They didn't create anything. They used existing nodes to create that fight, rather than create a custom set of nodes to do the same thing. This is typically what is done when designing content in games like this.

When the players were invited to create fights for the Boss Rush challenges that involved players, the players were not just allowed to dream up whatever they wanted and the developers created it. The players were handed a list of approved pre-existing nodes and asked to design the fights by combining a limited set of them (three or four). This is actually not all that dissimilar to how the actual Kabam content creators design things in the game. If the designers want to use nodes that don't yet exist, they probably don't just make them up on the spot. They probably need to go through an approval and test process for them, and they might even need to hand off the word to someone else entirely. It could be weeks or months before that new node can be used in content. So anything you can do with the existing nodes, you do with the existing nodes.

The designers literally cannot just write "do this to avoid the defender getting regen" because there's no facility to do that. They can only use existing nodes like LEGOs in their designs, or request new nodes that they can then use like LEGOs in their designs. They don't generally have the ability to freehand write any description they want into the pre-existing node definitions.

You do realize that when they create a new node it isn't as simple as writing it down right? They have to program it into the game. I took some courses on very basic programming which is difficult on its own. The amount of advanced programming this company must do every month is very high considering they add new characters with nodes tailored to them, they also took on buffing 3 champions a month, as well as releasing gauntlet and summer of pain. My point is they wanted this node to work without you healing and in order to spare resources and time from programming a new node they just added 2 nodes that already exists together for the same result, which there is nothing wrong with doing. Hope this clears up any more confusion you may have and if not then I don't know what will.

Yeah I definitely felt some brain cells dying

Games like this are not generally programmed like a normal program, at least not directly. The best way to understand what game designers do is to think about Excel. Excel is a program. A programmer wrote the code to Excel. However, no user of Excel programs Excel or even sees the code to Excel. Instead they create spreadsheets in Excel. Those spreadsheets use the tools that Excel contains. You can do some pretty sophisticated things in Excel with formulas and macros, but you still aren't really editing or adding to the code for Excel. You're just putting data into the cells.

The content designers generally work one level deeper than that. Someone else, the systems designers say, create the spreadsheets using Excel formulas and macros. The content designers fill in the blanks in those structured spreadsheets. Content designers are as far away from the source code of the game as accountants who fill in the blanks in a spreadsheet are from the source code of Excel.

Nodes in MCOC are assemblages of effects. The underlying mechanics of those effects were programmed into the game engine (probably in a meta layer within the engine, an additional abstraction layer). A node designer created the node using those effects. And then a content designer created a fight using those nodes.

In a small company, the node designer and the content designer could be the same person. However, they almost certainly wouldn't be doing both things at the same time, touching different layers of the game simultaneously. The tools and workflow required would probably be completely different.

Go get a doctor

You are probably right but the point of my post was that it isn't as simple as writing something down.

I really don't know how would I hv made you all understand. I know about what the nodes says, cleared it easily, what I was trying to say all this while, the nodes combination was funny. Heal or Hide says I can regen, but at the same time heal block ain't allowing me to regen.. that's it..

I found it funny. thats why this post was made. But then demon guy whom I had bashed couple of weeks ago for making fun of new comers and guys who can't clear blade node. So I had wrote a long post regarding how to help them. But then he added fuel to fire

BuggyDClown

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣We all are victim

Lol, "bashed". Lol

Would be too embarrassing for you too remember 😜 btw how do you manage so many dislike here in forum.. stil can't match your level

The title of your post is “Please Explain.” I and many others came in to explain, as requested.

Regrettably, we did so in good faith, assuming you actually sought an explanation rather than just a spotlight with which to be a troll. This was not the case, and I’m not gonna waste any more time on it.

You're well on your way.

I'm way more active on the forums than you. I comment way more often than you. I wouldn't ever be embarrassed by a "bashing" from you because after posts like this, it wouldn't hold any water.

It's was in a funny sense.. someone explain. Sarcastically. Chek out my first few comments. I said the same. B

By your comment, well you're on your way, itself proves you admit you get maximum dislikes in this forum. Spending more times doesn't matter, what matters is people disagree to you the most

The difference is that I have people to hit that button no matter what I say. Whether it's true or not, they'll hit it just because. They're disagreeing with you because what you say just isn't correct.

Chek my first few comments.. you will ge it. That's why I wrote buggyclown he was the one who got it

You are no Tom cruise or any other celebrity that people will wait for your posts to hit dislikes.

They hit disgaree coz they don't agree with you
