Ethereal Fuse cast time is still 2.0 seconds, Should be 1.5.. This was brought up in beta but nothing was done about it. ITC counters are being rapidly consumed by Various TDS nukes especially Wildflash Barrage. In some instances 1 single cast of Barrage has used 7 counters of Improved Twincast. Can we PLEASE get some kind of acknowledgement from a dev on this and a ETA on when this will be addressed. This has gone on too long now.
Why in the world are you Wildflashing at all, let alone during ITC? Not that the bug isn't a problem, but such a strange way to interact with it
He's (probably) using it because it's broken and doing more damage than it should be. This is also the reason why it is using extra counters of ITC. They changed some things on the back end, and it seems to have royally up the way procs work. Basically, the mana cost of Procs is not being calculated correctly. Here is an example: [Wed Dec 03 04:12:24 2014] You begin casting Twincast Rk. III. [Wed Dec 03 04:12:24 2014] Your magic splits. [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] You begin casting Wildflash Barrage. [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] Your Shimmering Ethermantle flickers with a pale light. [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] Your Irae Faycite Shard: Pure Wildflash feels alive with power. [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] Your Freedom of Thought feels alive with power. [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] Beimeith hit Combat Dummy Beza for 20864 points of non-melee damage. [First Proc hits.] [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] Combat Dummy Beza is blasted by pure wild magic. [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] You have been granted gift of mana 101 to 105! [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] You twincast Pure Wildflash. [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] Your Irae Faycite Shard: Pure Wildflash feels alive with power. [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] Your Freedom of Thought feels alive with power. [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] Beimeith hit Combat Dummy Beza for 21575 points of non-melee damage. [First Proc Twincasts. Note: This SHOULD NOT be happening] [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] Combat Dummy Beza is blasted by pure wild magic. [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] You twincast Wildflash Barrage. [Main spell twincasts] [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] Your Irae Faycite Shard: Pure Wildflash feels alive with power. [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] Your Freedom of Thought feels alive with power. [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] Beimeith hit Combat Dummy Beza for 58907 points of non-melee damage. [Second Proc hits] [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] Beimeith delivers a critical blast! (58907) [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] You deliver a critical blast! (58907) [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] Combat Dummy Beza is blasted by pure wild magic. [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] You twincast Pure Wildflash. [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] Your Irae Faycite Shard: Pure Wildflash feels alive with power. [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] Your Freedom of Thought feels alive with power. [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] Beimeith hit Combat Dummy Beza for 24297 points of non-melee damage.[Second Proc Twincasts. Note: This SHOULD NOT be happening] [Wed Dec 03 04:12:27 2014] Combat Dummy Beza is blasted by pure wild magic. Three spells are being Twincast: The Main spell is twincasting, and the two procs are both twincasting, resulting in 3 counters being used and getting 4x proc casts instead of 2. Twincast isn't supposed to be working on the procs because Twincast requires a spell cost 10 mana. When a spell is proc'd by another spell, it is supposed to have 0 (or 1 I can't remember which) mana cost, meaning Twincast will not work on it. Something they changed broke this.
So, yeah. How does that equate to more damage? I'm sure we have a lot better uses for that many ITC counters that will do tons more damage tbh. Hi, Bemeth
Weave/fuse is supposed to do that. It's a combo nuke with 36 sec recast. You get 2 hits from a normal cast, 4 from a twincast. Wildflash is not supposed to do that. It's a single nuke with 4 sec recast. You get 1 hit from a normal cast. And should get 2 hits from a twincast.
Neither one is supposed to eat more than a single charge of ITC (&AD/PD), though. Hitting one spell gem should = eating one charge
The question remains when are they gonna fix, or even acknowledge the issue (s)? I'm fairly patient but it's kind of ridiculous for it to have gone on this long imo.
