    TTT for a fix. This is a serious bug. She's missing an ability.

    No sense of urgency. We'll be coming up on 2 months soon.

    Good thing we're not using her. Because if we were, then we'd be getting mad.

    Is this a bug?? Seriously, I thought it was how it works, this is happening to me since i got her as a 2* duped, over an year and half now, since i started playing

    You're confusing power steal (attack feature - takes opponent's power on hit) with power drain (which is mutual and occurs when SW is struck by an opponent). Power STEAL should not negatively impact SW - to the contrary, it should STEAL power and fill her power bar, which it did just fine until the Dec update.

    Still bugged post 17.0 update. This is really starting to piss me off...

    Still happening post 17.0.2 as well.

    Bug is not fixed yet. Her power steal is stealing her own power even after the new update.

    Hey all. It looks like that team is close to a fix on this one. I'll will post an update once I know a fix version. Thanks!

    Power steal has been screwed up since the beginning of december. We're passing 2 months. Your last post about being close to a fix was 1 month ago. How "close" is "close"?

    Help... we're going on 10 weeks now.

    Last mod post was almost 1 month ago, Jan 18th

    Extremely frustrating that this isn't a priority or that we don't get timely updates.

    Still nothing on this one? She is still losing a little power when she power steals. The most visibly noticeable is when you are at sp2 and she power steals and puts you just under sp2 on the power meter.

    Just to revamp for those confused:
    Power Steal = only happens when she is hitting opponent and steals some of their power meter to add to hers
    Power Drain = only happens when she gets hit herself and completely drains both champs power.

    These are not the same effect and Power Steal is the one bugged currently.

    Image if the “known issues” thread was honest and actually listed known issues.

    What if...?

    Why not let this go on for another month? That way, we can say that her Power Steal has been down for a full season (3 months). Try to put that in perspective Kabam peeps.

    It's going to be a cold day in hell if you think Kabam will fix a problem that benefits them (lag, dashing forward problems etc.)
  • World EaterWorld Eater Posts: 3,566 ★★★★★
    Over a month without any update from the mods. It's ridiculous and downright pathetic at this point. Obviously bugs are not a high priority unless it's something that benefits Kabam. 1 more week and it'll be 3 months with no fix. Ya'll should be ashamed of yourselves.

    That's basically a disadvantage for playing SL it is so dumb especially when you need that SP2 to do alot of damage

    Can we get a fix for this @Kabam Miike?
  • Dexman1349Dexman1349 Posts: 3,060 ★★★★★
    Does seem to be working better. Haven't really used her much since the patch.

    Hi all!

    The issue with Scarlet Witch's Power Steal taking power from herself was resolved in the 17.1 update. Thanks for your patience as we worked toward a solution!
