The game experienced a brief connectivity issue this morning. The team promptly fixed the issue and things are back to normal, thank you to everyone who passed along reports!

Just encountered this in war, on a few occasions. Parried Mordo and used a heavy to counter his astral evade (as i have done ever since i started using AA) but this time, it didn't work and he applied degen.

Is it the node (node 42 - arc overload)?

I have always used this technique and never encountered this problem. As far as i am aware it is not the neurotoxins that counter the astral evade, but the quick succession of hits (similar to how drax counters Mordo).

    It is definietly 2hits that counters astral evade, not neurotoxin, as it cleary states under Mordo skills that he resists any ability accuracy reduction effects.

    That said, you need to be in closest possible distance to Mordo for it to work

    Thought so..thanks for clarifying.

    Well, i parried and then heavied - don't think i can get any closer than that! 😁

    That won't make a difference. Second screenshot shows it happening without the unstoppable. The unstoppable has happened numerous times when it's successfully prevented astral evade before.

    Hey @Donn1. Archangel ignoring Astral Evade with his Heavy was actually a Bug, and it has now been fixed. I'm sorry for any confusion that this caused for you! Since this is not a Bug, I'm going to go ahead and close out the thread. Thanks!
