(1.4.6) Shot myself so hard I landed in another campaign

#1 Post by pfhyyhtsche »

While running a Gunslinger with the Long Arm, Embers campaign, I got pulled into my own Vital Shot in the sunwall tunnels. On returning to my previous location I got killed by my shot 3 more times, then one final time when taking the eidolon's "return elsewhere" option, which consumed my blood of life on the world map and dumped me in Maj'Eyal, outside Derth. I haven't played adventurer much lately, so I'm not sure whether returning after dying should have re-killed me so many times or if it was an unintended interaction from the Long Arm's innate penetrating shot, but I definitely know that getting dumped into the western continent is an unintended behavior. For now, I'm gonna have fun with it, but y'all should probably know that this can (somehow) happen. I didn't have any particularly intrusive addons active as far as I'm aware.

That has to be the most hilarious set of circumstances I've heard in a while.

I had a bug like this a while ago with Paradox Mage (1.3.x). Basically the resurrection rules get funky if there's a projectile that can do more than your max health sitting in the square you'd resurrect. Anything but resurrect elsewhere kills you and leaves you in that square. If you go elsewhere, it STILL kills you because it first puts you in that square before warping you elsewhere, but at least you can recover from that point.

The ending up in the wrong campaign is new, but there were a few bugs that others have reported where Elsewhere sends to Maj'eyal accidentally.

Can we please delete a projectile if it kills you?
And move the game forward a tick when you die?
