0 Tiltskillet Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 I think this follows the same pattern as Overguard in Nulli fields. Frost, Rhino, and Atlas Overguard get nullified, Kullervo and Styanax Overguard don't. Why? No idea. It seems weirder that two of them last through nullification (and presumably falling off the map) than that three of them behave as I'd expect.

You lose Warding Safeguard when you get nullified, so whatever code takes Safeguard away from you is probably in play on Icy Avalanche too And Atlas, well that one's obvious, the overguard is tied to him being a Rumbler.

I just wonder what Pablo would say--if we got him drunk--about why special treatment for Kullervo and Styanax is justified. Other than something along the lines of, "The code is a mess and we've got more important things to do." Or, "What, first I've heard of it." Or, "Have you seen my cat pictures?" :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You lose Warding Safeguard when you get nullified, so whatever code takes Safeguard away from you is probably in play on Icy Avalanche too Icy Avalanche is the same as Rhino's Overguard, it was a thing you had in the buff bar, just the same.
