Shattered Kingdoms

damage to eparry was halved but what about the bug here? fixed or not?

It's questionable whether this is even a bug. I'm not going to spend the time to investigate it further.

what do you need to investigate? The message you get is 'you parry their bare fist!' meaning you hit their damned hand, yet sometimes I get for the hit on their hand, 'they dodged your attack!'.... No they didnt, i friggin hit them, it said i did. How is that not a bug? Anyways, i guess it doesnt matter since you "wont investigate it further"; I am with you on that one, fixing drink containers so that they say whats in them is sofaking spectacular and way more important than fixing combat bugs.

Bryan, it is not a bug. You parried, blocking their attack, and they moved out of the way before your weapon hurt them. Getting frustrated over something so absolutely minor is pointless. Denegrating the work of the IMMstaff is also not the way to get your point across. I would say that this issue is done.

It's a code issue.

While parrying does require violent contact, the problem is that when you do an enhanced parry the game gives your character an additional attack. And that attack is subjectable to dodge and shield block, much like riposte is. So...it's not really a bug per se.

As I have said, I consider it a typo. Change it to "You place your weapon and attempt to parry XXX's bare fist." and it's done. He can dodge it/shield block it, you can miss him, he can slip past it using wild fighting or a cabal skill.

Would it be better if it was re-worded? Yes.

But just realize what is going on and that should be enough for most people I would hope.

Besides, its not like its going to happen ALOT

it takes a shitload more than something sk related to get me frustrated Achy, and I have nothing but love for the Imms(cept will , im just poking a little fun is all...

DA's solution would be perfect with the exception that I would think with every recieved attack there is an attempted parry, not just every so often. ardiths point makes sense but that sort of sounds like a bug/typo to me. achy, i guess the problem i have with that explination is understanding how one could block someone elses hand with a weapon without hitting their hand with the weapon.

It isnt a HUGE deal and I dont really care, but it just doesnt strike me as something that could be all that hard to fix... but what do i know? And yes, i actually love all the new drink container functions and think that finally being able to light stuff is rad, but i cant tease you guys a little?

I hate lakir a lot.
