Eliard Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 (edited) I encountered this in Conclaves while dueling an Ash. He appeared to be using Shuriken while dead, and claimed it was a bug; I suspected omghax!!1 and went to test this for myself with a friend. Turns out it actually is a bug that affects probably every frame. I didn't want to test on every frame, but I tried Nyx, Vauban, Loki, and (of course) Ash, and it seems to be that: - This can be triggered when the player is dead without a Revive/Forfeit screen, such as in Conclaves or after clicking Forfeit where at least one other person person is still alive, by simply pressing the appropriate skill hotkey - Any frame can use non-movement non-targeted* skills while dead (not downed), as long as they have the energy for it - Skills are cast from where the player died and in the direction of where the player was aiming when he/she died, regardless of where he/she is currently aiming in Spectator mode - Most skills that do not have a form of "power in use" delay can be spammed without delay (Decoy was hilarious in this respect) - Energy/Health/Ammo restores can be deployed while dead if they are hotkeyed (not manually via the Gear wheel) - Frames (and possibly weapons) are capable of gaining affinity from skills used in this state, and even leveling up - It does not matter whether you are the host or a client * Mucked about a little more, found that movement skills that don't require a target like Tail Wind can be used but won't move anywhere (e.g. you can't ever get to a state where you can use Dive Bomb). Skills that require a target always say Invalid Target, even if there is a valid target there (as far as Teleport and Switch Teleport were concerned, anyway). That's all I can remember for now, but holy crap is that a list. >_> Edited June 30, 2014 by Eliard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
