[1.2]How is Warp Area and Chain Lightning intended to work?

from Demigod Forums

So I've played around a bit with the new Demigod and the first thing I've noticed is, maybe not a bug, but something I'm not sure if it is intended or not.

Let's start with Warp Area, if me (as Demon Assasin) is standing next to just one unit or Demigod that is included in the area of Warp Strike I will just hit that unit once. So it will only do about 250 dmg in first lvl and only warp 1 time when the tooltip says it is supposed to warp 4 times or something.

Chain Lightning is the same, even though at some lvl the tooltip say it should arc 7 times. If I cast it for example on a rook standing next to a UB it will only hit them one time each. According to the tooltip it should arc 5 times more.

Does anybody know how this is supposed to work?

Both abilities only hit a target once, so if there's only one enemy in range you will warp only once, even if you have 4 warps. I'm sure this is intended, it says so in the ability description.

And I believe you're talking about Warp Area, not Warp Strike, which only affects a single target, once.

Same with the lightning. It will only arc to targets inside the ability range.

It would continue to arc/warp only if there are other targets nearby that hasn't already been hit by the spell.

Does anybody know how this is supposed to work? Or maybe somebody from GPG/SD could answer this. If it doesn't work as intented it's a quite big bug.

LOL are you kidding right?

 

you would want the chain lightning to do 750x5 to both??

 

LOLLLLLLLLLL

 

they are easy to understand spells

750 to ANY target, up to 10 targets, end of story

 

and its already a bit overtuned imo
