Adik Tower- fireballs dont shoot.

[Jessie Valdez]

FT Account name: (J Valdez /common name)
Time of bug: 21-11-2017 time around 13.00 - 13.10 FT time
Where: Map 2,2 Adik tower near MEGA below the Adik Base
What: Hhanxel reported to me that Adik tower did not shoot Fireballs. I took Akkilles and create a Test clan to see If the Adik tower works. Yes it did, BUT only with Arrows NOT worked with fireballs . I also used my main J Valdez to join Adik just to look if they had Fireballs Ammo inside this tower. They had 4 pages of Fireballs.
Why: When I atack Adik tower and got auto on my "test clan" it only shot me with arrows not Fireballs.
Other comments: MEGA members using long distance balistas so the tower can't hit them. ( They fighting when I got the report)

Need some additional info.
What type of tower was it, and what level was it?
How much HP did your attacking account have?

Please note:
Clan towers and castles have different missiles. If there are no missiles in the buildings, arrow missiles are used (unlimited). Fire missiles are only used if attacker's HP are 3 times bigger than building STR. In all other cases, stone missiles are used (if they are in storage).

Square Tower
At its building: GOLD 6m - PLANKS 15 - STONES 67
Completed level 1: STR 1500 - HP 2000k
Range Magic Resistance 90% - Damage Resistance 98% - Item storage 125
Upgrading it: GOLD 600k - PLANKS 2 - STONES 9 - Benefits: STR +150 - HP +200k

So building str would be:
1500+ (150*2849)

Building STR should be 428850
428850 * 3 = 1286550

Attacker hp, rounded up, is 1066000

Since Fire missiles are only used if attacker's HP are 3 times bigger than building STR, this is not a bug, and it is working as intended.

Thank you MadMikael

I just want to state for the record that this has either been changed or animations are wrong. Either way it has me scratching my helmet.

I have seiged in a large group before many times with levels ranging from under 100 up to and not always including players with levels over 9,000 and when we attacked the tower it fired "fire" missiles at everyone in the group including the lowest levels.

That's why this thread made me scratch my head. I have never seen a building not shoot fire missiles at everyone in a group regardless of their level so I don't know if this rule only applies when one player is attacking and doesn't apply when a group is attacking.

I can confirm that sometimes the animations are buggy
and that you never should entirely believe what you're seeing

you're an archer
try attacking something, then while attacking, unequip your bow
best if it moves around too
like, test PvP with a friend

then there's lag
where nothing is ever 100% where it appears

as for towers
I would not be surprised if it does not switch animations between shots
really, it's the numbers you can't see that make the difference

to test it
have a really high and lower level
attack a tower that has only fire missiles in it
the higher level should go first, and get attacked with fire missiles
then try and time it so the lower level attacks and gets targeted
sure, the fire missile animation could show
....but does the lower take fire missile damage?

[Ryaca]

That's true Mad. I was thinking the same thing. I was thinking that the game might get laggy if the animations were to switch back and forth so maybe comp made it show just one animation on purpose.

I don't know about the damage I just know that when the missile his the lower level they disappear.

The next time my Duke asks for a clan vote on if ShdW should seige or not I will test this for you and may even send you a pm if you would like to observe. We don't seige very often though.

[MadMagus]

You will not see me on clan maps
Those are dangerous places, and I know many who would like to try and make me feel it

Maybe, you could contact the GMs on it.

[Ryaca]

Yeah I can imagine there are players that do not like you which is a testament to your legacy as a GM. A genuine fair and balanced GM will have enemies. There is no way around this.
