Corruptor attacks on pets - whitescreen

Post by Thenixon »

Seen on https://nexusclash.com/clash.php?op=character&id=528

This seems similar to the Cut the Silver Cord bug that has been squashed. When I attack feral imps with Tainted Wings (this kills the imp), using Life Vampire I either miss or get:
-A blank white screen
-No log messages
-No ice
-No imp left to tell the tale

I haven't really experimented with all of the variables such as other attack charges, other weapons, or a non-fatal dose. I do feel like it happened once on a player-controlled pet as well but I'm not certain.

There is definitely something busted here, I managed to replicate it on live but it wasn’t consistent enough to pinpoint where the failure is happening. Strangely enough I couldn’t replicate it on test, so there must be some factor that I’m not seeing.

Thank you for the report, hopefully we can get to the bottom of it soon.

This has happened to me too. I was a Seraph, using eye of clockwork precision. I was also flying. They were hellhounds owned by another player. On what would have killed them I got a blank screen. No kill message but they were gone. Did not happen on their imps for whatever reason.

I've had this happen a few times on my IB attacking imps/hellhounds, where the game whitescreens as I attack, and when I reload it, the pet is gone, and there is no message log I attacked, and I don't seem to have used any AP or MP for the attack.

I also have a feeling this happened against my lich (clash.php?op=character&id=7870) recently, where it died without any clear attack against it mentioned in the message log.

I think I might have figured this one out, I'm going to leave this thread open for now though. Hopefully no one experiences this after the next game update.
