Ultimatheory

The Contest is down for emergency maintenance...

Shhhh. Listen very closely and you'll hear the "whoops"

Zuro

I think my sinsisters bleed or poison is based upon the percentage of the enemies health going down instead of what bleed or whatever is actually supposed to be and since this is against lol this could be why it’s such high numbers

Its the suicide masteries, and sinister transfers those debuffs to his opponent using his special 1.

Kabam Miike

Yes. This is definitely a bug. It seems to be caused by Deep wounds referencing the Health of the opponent instead of Mr Sinister, like it should have. We're working on a fix for this right now.

TacoScotty

That’s hilarious that they wouldn’t test that basic interaction that players knew to test right away

Bet this gets fixed by tonight

Everyone who has finished LOL take your 4 star sinister and get it done.

Any thoughts as to how he can be taken down on a debuff immune node or are we gonna wait until it's a problem?

RacerX

Yes please correct this bug before his crystals are released thanks

hiddenblizzard

Why were you leaving while heavy attack charging? You can do it like quake?

It want it fixed in the next hour... A bug that we can identify this quickly should be addressed as fast as possible. I know this is going to quickly turn into a case of "Fixing bugs that help players right away, etc.", but that's again ignoring the countless bugs that hurt players that we scramble to fix right away.

This is a server side fix, and will be fixed as soon as it can be.

hiddenblizzard

CCPs can complete lol quickly before he changes!😅

Zuro

Mister sinister out here wildin but if I’m being honest if this were to stay he would be a great defender

Suicides since it takes a portion of total health instead of a fixed amount combined with the fact that Sinister can pause DoT debuffs

Yes when he does his heavy he pauses all debuffs.

But charging ur heavy leaves u vulnerable

Nah, we get it. Bugs that manifest in certain ways are easier to identify and "fix"
Thanks for giving some insight into your thought process though.

The_Boss9

So if anyone pulls a 5* sinister before the fix can get an easy LOL run😂😂😂

Stagedear85

my only question how come Modok auto block and medusa fury bug wasn't fix on the server side of things like this one. anyway over all im thankful for these new champs and looking forward to get my hands on one soon.

The REAL question is, why did you make a post about it before doing varient or LoL?

It isn't really a question of how the problem presents itself, but rather in where the problem likely lies. This sounds like a bug where the proper mechanics exist, but have been declared incorrectly in the data for Mr. Sinister. Such bugs are relatively easy to fix if they can be characterized completely, because they are in effect small typos in the data.

Sometimes what the developers want to happen is something the game engine can directly do, and they just need to set the right flag to make it happen. Sometimes what the developers want to happen is something the game engine cannot do directly, but you can make it happen by assembling a set or sequence of smaller events that combine to get the thing to happen. This is a little harder. Sometimes the thing the developers want to happen is something the game engine cannot do at all in the general case, but you can make it happen in the one place where it has to happen, hoping the other cases just don't come up. This is tricky and brittle. And sometimes the thing the devs want to happen is something the game engine cannot do at all no matter what you do, and new game mechanics have to be invented and added to the game engine. This can take an indefinitely amount of time to happen.

Also, the game client itself actually runs combat on our devices, but the game client contains two separate sets of data. Some of the data is "hard coded" into the game client, and some of the data is dynamically loaded from the game servers when needed. That's why when you read about game leaks you will often see descriptions of powers or abilities that have blanks where values are. That's because that data literally doesn't exist anywhere except the game servers until the content goes live and that data is fetched by our game clients when those fights occur. As a result, any bug in how abilities work that exists within that dynamically loaded data can be patched by Kabam at the servers and our game clients will reflect that change relatively quickly without having to update the game clients. So any bug that exists there can be dynamically fixed "on the fly" so to speak.
