Drowned with air

#1 Post by Delmuir »

In short, I had a long, brutal fight on Insane in Lake Nur. I finally finished the enemy off but I had started suffocating. Then I accidentally double-tapped and got into a dangerous situation in which I was losing life.

So... I found an air pocket with 10 life left... I'm literally standing on it and my air has refilled to 47. I tap wait... and die.

WTF??!!??

That is very hard to decipher without the game log showing what actually happened.
Stronk is a potent combatant with a terrifying appearance.

If you start suffocating you will keep suffocating until you get onto a non-water tile. Stepping into air bubbles doesn't work. Known issue and widely agreed to be stupid so maybe it will get changed eventually.

I was not aware of this. That is surely the issue. Thanks!

Nice to find this. 'Course it would have been better earlier, before I decided to take my guy into lake nur without breathing eq. for the challenge. Heh. Quick trip to Eidolan...
