EMERGENCY MAINTENANCE

There was an issue with an offer that sent out a surplus of Tier 7 Basic Catalysts.
While the Game Team investigates a way to remedy this issue, we will be putting the Game into Emergency Maintanance.

We do not currently have an estimate on how long this will take, however, we will let you know as soon as we know anything.

Thank you for your patience.

Rintrah Rooting

    I stopped using rintrah for this exact reason, unfortunately after taking the 7* to r3. Tried using him again today & it completely throws the rhythm of the fight out the window. Feel like we're due an update on what's not happening 😕

    is it being swept under the rug?

    I'd vote for under the rug.
    Then I’d vote for RDTs.

    Yeah, happened to me again in a BGs match the other day. Really unhappy I R3’d him given this bug.

    But maybe the three of us are the only ones who care?
    I was under the impression someone in CCP had commented to the team about this specific issue. However, there’s been no traction whatsoever. @KabamPinwheel did comment above, but I don’t have anything beyond that.

    We do have a Guardian comment (who apparently isn’t a Rintrah user) but this feels like it’s been shuffled to the dead letter office.

    Any update on this ? I'm having the same issue after specials that you can't punish them because you are still rooted. I've been using Rintrah as a 6 star and never had this issue before, so I believe the duration of root has been changed somehow.

    @KabamPinwheel has noted it. Any chance this gets a fix before the next update?

    The root bug affects his performance in this saga as well since coda wants you to punish opponent special but he stays a little too long rooted after opponent specials, so you can't punish it and opponent gets unblockable.

    Coda? Is this AW?

    It can be. #Coda and #Genesis are apparently the new Saga tags.

    Yes and by next month we'll see the AW node in one of the bgs season as well.

    Sounds like a bug
  • Chief_WiggumChief_Wiggum Member Posts: 185 ★★
    @Oakenshield Yes it still happened yesterday in GC gameplay. I expected it and worked around it. but the root doesn't release in time to allow for punishing the attack.

    HEY, it was me who was poking at this - I just did some more poking with someone on the Game Team, and we think we have a fix for BOTH issues!

    (The too long Root - AND the too far away root)

    It's the end of the day here, so I'll be back to update you on a timeline for both of these fixes, should hopefully be soon!

    Thanks for your insight. Hopefully Rintrah doesn't get the Zemo treatment lol

    What I really appreciate is the team’s willingness to take a look quickly at this one. Veteran players don’t always get it right, but when a beloved champ suddenly feels off and there’s an agreement on what looks wrong, it’s nice to know the team gave us some credence.

    Not saying we don’t whine and caterwaul every now and then, but this one wasn’t that. Thanks again!

    Agree - thanks for getting this corrected and getting it into the next patch.

    Also appreciate you working to keep this top of mind, @DrZola
