[BETA 1.6 B4] Sunburst ignoring possible targets

#1 Post by Elkan »

I started a new Anorithil in the ID for 1.6 b4 and quickly started putting points into sunburst which is my new favourite spell since 1.6, Very much enjoying the shoot-through mechanic introduced in b4, however I'm startling to see quite a few instances of sunburst only firing once, or twice when there are several valid targets to shoot, at talent levels where it is able to fire 4 or more beams, I'm not sure the reason why its not firing, but the only thing I could come up with so far is that I may have a valid line of sight, to the targets, but it might not be able to draw a valid line of fire to them? I'll have to play more and see if this rings true in further testing

Update, further testing debunks the line of fire theory, I can easily draw lines of fire with shadowbeam to the positions of skipped targets, so Its not clear why it is firing less than it should do.

a bug was introduced when fixing sunburst to actually fire beams (instead of 'hits')
every time sunburst fires a beam it's removing 2 targets from the list of acceptable targets
fixed
