So I haven't landed a single hit in ints this morning with either LT or HT...

Taking stock of its offensive abilities, and defending with a lumium ceremonial shield and a kertig bola, you are certain that the Dragon Priest intercessor is a relatively easy opponent.

Also, that's my SB app(1146) and not LT(1347).

Something is uh, really broken. I don't normally miss more than once in a row, yet I missed every single shot.

With LT I cannot hit. HT I can hit but LOTS of fatigue! What broke?

Odd, Not sure if I am hitting or not with HT.

The hhr'ata lands nearby!

It is a messaging bug. You are still hitting, the messaging is just not properly reflecting it.

The Combat People (tm) have been notified and will surely be investigating the problem as soon as it's a more reasonable hour in the U.S.

Seems more than a messaging bug. Totally loosing balance with HT spears, moving from adeptly to badly balanced in 4 throws. Never dropped below solid balance yesterday.

Cause someones gonna say them... Looks like thrown was balanced! ... Sounds like it'll be easy to dodge all the curses thrown in the GM's direction ... Free weapons! Just follow all the weapon chuckers around...


And last but not least, Yall can't hit the broad side of the floor!



Now back to our regularly scheduled conniption fit... !!!HELP!!!

Messaging and everything still appears fine in TF. Might want to compare code.

Hey guys, I've posted an update in the responses category and I want to give a heads up that I'll be doing some more live-testing today. The many thrown bugs we've had since 3.0 went live - which include knocking people out of rooms, messaging issues, 0 skill players hitting 1000 skill players and 1000 skill players missing 0 skill players, and vanishing thrown weapons - cannot be duplicated with reasonable effort in our other instances.

Assuming my internet doesn't die I'll likely avoid breaking anything for more than a few minutes :P

Does anyone have a way to reliably reproduce the tossing people out of the room bug? Trying to find another angle to tackle this from...

Thanks for your understanding!

I've never done it (knowingly seen it), but I'll check with some of the more PvPer type players that may not check the forums, and see if I can OOC them and get a clue.

From my observations, I'm pretty sure that strength and/or stamina plays a role in characters being tossed from the room when being hit by thrown weapons. I feel like I've noticed it happening with greater frequency to my Gnome character (20 STR, 30 STAM) as compared to my other burlier characters.

You may want to try having a character with high strength and stamina throw at one with very low strength and stamina and see if that produces the desired bug. Hope that helps.

I've done it with my crystal throwing club (HT) and my steel 58 stone sledge from Apu's store. I haven't seen it with an equal number of throws from crafted scimitar, broadsword, or bastard sword. Fwiw.
