Shang chi works well. Slow him then knock him down

Galan ignores the protection

So does Elsa with a few Busted.

GroundedWisdom

Void works as well, if you have patience and Dex skills.

It’s quite a hard path too so I don’t think I’ll be able to clear it itemless with the bugged node

This is called out of touch with the game lol

You cannot slow mutants. There’s a reason most of that path is mutant opponents.
i can slow with quicksilver but not shang chi both apply the same debuff. And still doesnt answer why i need to knock down twice to remove protection
Shang chi cannot slow mutants or specifically one cannot slow opponents with class advantage. The rest of the node seems to be bugged though

I'm so confused loool. When i use chi charge on storm while she has the unstoppable, it goes away, as if slow worked, but the debuff doesn't appear. But yes everything else is horror

Key point that should be made in the node is that you can’t special intercept. Also, finding intercepting doesn’t always remove the passive unstoppable.

Okay I thought that was just me. Few time I swore I intercepted and got blown up.

Yes. If the node *is* working correctly, then I’m quite sure there is a frame rate issue that is registering my intercept a split second late. Mainly—because I’ve intercepted in this game a few times before.

Galan and Kitty. Scorp for Mojo using venom synergy.

The team is looking into this a little deeper.

Will update as more information becomes available.

Why must they continue to have these ridiculous node combinations while input issues and poor AI exist. Fix the game first!!!!!!

Yes I know you are a better more experienced player than I.
Was comforting to know someone like yourself said it. Cheers

Not at all! That wasn’t directed at you—it’s just frustrating when you perform an action you have done thousands of times in game and the result is sideways. Seriously didn’t mean it that way at all!

It seems how someone said its gonna work which is the unstoppable activating first which then as its thinking there unstoppable u cant knockdown u can test this with a slow champ as i tested with sg and if u use a heavy she applies slow and protection goes on cooldown so its thinking newtons law node is going up before the protection node which is making this interaction of the first knockdown not removing protection

I’m guessing Newton would have calculated all of this correctly. I’m also guessing he’s not on the game team.

Did galan’s own unstoppable prevent theirs and allow for the protection to go down? If that’s the case if you have unstoppable from besides the node does that work as well?

Not 100% sure. It was bang bang with the node Unstoppable and the Galans but I've noticed a few times where after the nodes unstoppable runs out, I can deactivate protection and it won't trigger the unstoppable.

DrZola

Maybe I’m doing it wrong, but here’s Nimrod. Built to Sp2, heavied. Then intercepted to claim the unstoppable and dropped Sp2. Still Protection.

Dr. Zola

Edit: One more time. Protection eventually went down, but not upon intercept. It took another special delivered to drop protection. At a minimum the description probably needs to be reworded.

Double Edit: Can confirm
The knockdown doesn’t get rid of protection. I had to (a) knockdown, (b) intercept while unstoppable to claim unstoppable and (c) perform another special to remove protection.

Thank you Jax.

Darn, had to use a few revives because I wanted to get it over with (to do Grandmaster).

Also, I noticed a few times that when protection was OFF they somehow went unstoppable (maybe after a knockdown).

Mister_pl0w

I got through it but I had to use a couple pots to top up. I had to;

Parry->heavy->intercept->parry->heavy->hit

It sucked considering the way the ai is behaving of walking forward and spamming block making it difficult to intercept.

DrZola

One more—It seems like the coding is (1) not removing protection on a knockdown, (2) permitting protection to remain up after even after an intercept following a knockdown within the timer window and (3) requiring an extra hit or two after intercept but also during the timer to remove protection.

In this pic, the third hit of Nimrod’s Sp2 removed protection from Sinister—which muted damage from the first two hits and dramatically reduced damage dealt.

Shang chi works well. Slow him then knock him down

Galan ignores the protection

Galan worked for me. Good call.

Havok was still hard.

Right. It’s really cute. Add to that Storm’s tendency to shallow intercept after a feint charge and I’d almost think it was a field test of this type of interaction for later content.

Ended up wasting a few revives, which is a shame. Glad to hear that it's being looked into, though. I knew something was off

IMWeasel

Ya this was really annoying

I really hope this node it bugged because this is just dumb

Are these nodes just for level 4 and 5? If they added them to level 3 or below that seems a bit punishing for uncollected players. I've only had time to do level 5 currently.
