Sefer.9618 Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 The Necro's Shades cannot do damage anymore when placed on (the edge of) walls/battlement, hills, ramps, bridges and many more. Also the slightest difference in elevation or loss of LoS due to rocks, trees, ... results in "Obstructed! Obstructed! Obstructed!" ... Sometimes staff marks get triggered but don't to damage/effect won't happen, too.This seems unintended because i.e. Elementalists are still able to do damage with their skills.EDIT: It's not walls only. The smallest difference in elevation results in "Obstructed!"EDIT2: Or objects in LoS ...EDIT3: examplesEDIT4: https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/14962/scourge-shade-obstructed-on-walls-in-wvw#latestEDIT5: https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/7beqvf/patch_bug_thread_7th_of_november_2017/dpin908/?context=3EDIT6: https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/7cdj48/scourge_shades_get_obstructed_unless_theyre_cast/EDIT7: https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/7crbt0/scourge_shades_getting_obstructed/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormwings.8329 Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Its on a necro so is a fearute. The best is when 2 are inside the shade and you activate F2-5 and you see "obstructed" only on 1...Probably theres something wrong with "Fixed a bug that could cause this skill's targets to be lost due to proximity between shades or the casting scourge" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dzeRnumbrd.6129 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 I am getting this constantly also and I hope it gets fixed quickly because clearing walls is one of our main roles in WvW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bash.7291 Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Honestly I would take the previous targeting issue where overlapping shade/necro would only hit 5 targets instead of 10 over this. It completely breaks the AoE design behind the shade. I have messed around with it, and there are even times where you can cast the shade directly behind the target, and still get an obstructed message. How could the placement for the skill manage to have LoS, but not the actual hit -.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azoricus.7409 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 And now it seems nefarious favor is also doing something it should not(?). A bit of comunication from Anet would be great. At least a "we're aware of this and looking in to it" post would be nice. As a 95% WvW player that mains necro, this makes me seriously think of starting to raid with another class cause with the shades being obstructed by "blades of grass" we loose a better part of our role in a wvw fight.

Sefer.9618 Posted November 11, 2017 Author Share Posted November 11, 2017 Worst thing is that this is happening open field, too... or even if well placed on players as reported by others... Reported on several places but no sign of recognition from ANET... :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya Ya Yeah.7381 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 Getting a lot of obstructed off shades , not just for walls but hills and slopes in areas too. Please give this attention cause it's getting known and now opponents are positioning to exploit it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(hard to see in wvw blob battle)This bug, however, is very noticeable. It's not that people are hiding it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eros.6801 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 Can we have official responses from Anet? Is this a bug or another unofficial nerf ? Or do you even cares ? The obstructed in most game mode is really annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But these 2 problems are big game breackers... one for wvw and other for pvp. Hope that Anet will solve this as fast as they can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadlySynz.3471 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 It's almost getting to the point of shades being unreliable because of this. It happens even on a slight terrain differential. This needs to be reverted back; otherwise then any and all skills from all other classes that have the ability to hit things on differing terrain also needs to be getting the "obstructed" message as well.

Harum.2896 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 This has made me rage quit WvW with scourge several times now. Decide to go back to reaper to test the patch changes till shades get fixed but that just made me rage quit the whole game for now.Pls fix necros asap.

Jaya.2760 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 Another weird behavior: I can hit canons on walls with my shades and F-skills(but the person using that canon is obstructed), but oil is always obstructed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if you place the shade behind a corner or pillar and you slightly cover yourself it's gonna say "obstructed" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
