His tentacle hits should make him immune to the nodes’ damage, right?

    No. 100%. I tested

    He doesn’t even though everything seems like he should, a bug by the looks of it

    I used a 5* 5/65 Omega Red and finished the fight on 65% health. I was surprised, thought his tentacle hits would heal him. I thought it was because I got hit by heavies twice (opponent was 5* R3 Cable), but now I think not, he would not lose so much health from those hits and would heal from tentacle hits. A bug or working as intended?

    This is definitely a bug. Omega should be able to avoid incoming thorns damage like that.

    Yeah he should.. it’s exactly what his tentacle hits are intended for... non contact hits. It’s why he’s good for korg... electro etc. they need to fix this ASAP.

    @Kabam Miike was this tested before release?

    To be fair, it still makes contact. Whats not working is his regular ability to not receive damage back, which doesnt work on regular thorns as well

    Nobody with non contact hits can bypass it. Also heal block on it as well so you can’t take the damage to defeat them and heal back any of the damage. Only healing is through potions.

    Non-contact hits (aka projectiles) should be able to bypass it

    Omega red = always
    Psychic thornes = cant

    Behold, the future is now.

    Using domino I did ML 3 hit combos. Medium is a 2 hit attack. The 1st hit of M hurts you, then the second hit of M plus the light hit heals you as the 2nd M hit and 1st L hit of Dominos combo are non contact attacks. Finished fights at full health

    lol they don't even acknowledge this error, again. It's false advertising in the champ's ability description:
    "Tentacle Hits reduce 100% of the damage inflicted by enemy abilities that deal instant passive damage when they are struck". That is exactly what thorns is, yet he still takes the full amount of damage

    That fact this hasn't' even been passed on to the team for amendment and just completely ignored is so unethical

    This has been acknowledged as a bug in another thread and I think they said they fixed it as he should def not take damage on tentacle hits.

    Indeed, this was addressed, and will be fixed apparently.
