Re: Sharpshot is not a free damage skill

Sounds like a vulnerability if the next skill can only be cast after the animation and this is determined client side. Also seems to punish older devices that will lag. Also sounds like you can boost dps on older devices this way.
There are checks in place server side to monitor this.

Any device that lags connection wise will suffer in sending data, much in the same way it would for movement, chatting etc.

What if I'm 600/1100 though a speed capped auto and I use a skill with a 2 sec cast time, once the 2 secs is up do I continue from the 600/1100 and inflict an auto after the last 500 (half a second), or will the auto reset and make me wait the entire 1100 or 1.1 seconds. If the answer is yes then what about instacast skills do they make my auto restart or have no effect?
Probably need to run further testing on that one (Server Ticks / Skill Time etc)

Hey, Muldar. What's the verdict on this? Do I have to attempt to time a sharpshot in between my autos or can I safely cast everytime the skill is ready without a penalty?

Never got to test it fully / very hard to test on our internal servers with things changing everyday.

From looking at the data instacast wont reset the auto timer and you will continue the extra 500 through animation then auto.

Either way it would be pretty minor losses and anything that would affect you and your clan would affect the opposing clan.

It is something I hope to look into in finer detail in the future.

Muldar pls keep in mind that ppl dont care if they lose half an auto ot even a whole auto hit when they deal with mobs and lixing.
Problem is when u have to go bossing. Battles r 10 min plus. Most r like 15ish even more. So in such long figts a minor dmg loss due to a skill not working properly when it is said it is insta cast makes huge difference.
I believe that this is what ppl actually want to know.
