[Bug] Sweep ability takes several seconds to activate

October 29, 2012 2:04:40 PM from Elemental ForumsElemental Forums

I'm currently using a Fell Dragon from a Dragon Camp in my battles and noticed, that it takes several seconds for the damage to occur, when I activate the Sweep ability.

Edit: Changed the title to reflect, that this also happens with the champion-ability.

I actually noticed this on a champion, he got sweep as a level up ability. He'd do the animation, and then the game would sit there 5 seconds or so before the damage registered and tactical combat could move on.

Same here - the sweep ability causes this I think on all instances

Interesting. I never tried the champion-ability, so I didn't notice this.

This delay did not happend for me during the FE Campaign. I haven't had the skill in a sandbox game yet, though.

Does it have anything to do with the type of weapon?  Regardless, I've had some times when it has worked and some times when it hasn't, but more often then not the latter.

Delay happens on everything and is really annoying...

 

Dragon with the skill, Sovereign with the skill and sword/bow/etc...

 

It's insanely annoying and completely ruins the fluidity of combat and the game...

 

Last few games I don't even pick of the skill even though it's really good... It's not worth adding in 10 second delays x1/x2, every single fight.
