Nyx Absorb...

[ast00]

I was playing some random Grineer mission, screen flickering, G3 incoming. I had 412 energy to drain from and full efficiency build, so I thought OK, I pop Absorb, after absorbing about 50k damage, I pop off and they are dead.

So I tried it. Absorbed 15k, died instantly with 350 energy left. Let's just say a bug doesn't allow me to get the Brakk. EVERY TIME I encounter G3, I die to the most dumbass things, for example a corpus "ally" walking into my rocket, or I lag and get killed by the air shooting.

BUT this time I was SOLO. That means no invite only, no private, I was SOLO. No lag, just a bug. It has to be fixed.

A lot of complaints about G3 instagibs happening recently. Even when in absorb like you where.

G3, Harvey, and Stalker should be immune to certain abilities.

 

Being able to insta-gib them is just as bad as them insta-gibbing us.

But they are not clearly immune to abilities, it's RANDOM. And I'm sure it's not intended.

The wording makes me sure the intention was to make them unaffected by warframe abilities, not negate any buffs on players.

 

However, their goal IS to hunt and kill Warframes, so ignoring such things would be appropriate for them. An aoe purge and energy depletion aura is not difficult game logic to implement.

 

Right now it should be a bug, but that may change.

 

But are you sure they instagibbed you through the skill? I ask because I've had mine automatically end.

Mine was still on.

And I'm fine with them ignoring skills, but then the devs should SAY it. Or at least it should be consistant. It's bullcrap that once it works once it doesn't.
