King Ezekiel - Regal Authority

Hello hello!

Before getting into the topic at hand, I do have to remind you all again that there are very clear rules on this Forum that I expect everyone to follow. The rules are not there to silence you, but there to make the Forum a comfortable place for everyone. That means old and new users, new players and long-time players, staff, and anyone else checking in.
It is perfectly fine to disagree with others and voice your opinions in a constructive manner, but that does not warrant toxic behaviour and insults towards anyone.

Please keep this in mind and understand that if not followed, you are not only making this place unpleasant for yourself, but for others as well. That includes staff.

I wanted to otherwise jump in on the subject and confirm what has been said already - Ezekiel’s LT together with push-mechanic weapons causing 100% interruptions is a bug.

We have not at any point announced, or shared information in the game that would indicate this is how it should work. Not in Ezekiel’s LT or for eg. the Morning Star weapon. If something isn’t working as intended, then you should always report to support for further check and information.

Bugs that cause involuntary issues that are out of the players control will always be looked into for possible actions or compensations. However, if something is not working as intended and does not force any actions or losses for the player, but the player still decides to utilise it, then it’s a decision made my the player. Something like that will not be compensated.

We would like to ask you to not interpret this action as stubbornly fixing a bug just because it is a bug - we do see that it brings in a fun element, and makes Ezekiel a very powerful option in some cases. This isn’t a problem, but our focus is on the fact that the Push-mechanic doubles down as a guaranteed interrupt - it affects the balancing of many other things than just Ezekiel. We are working on changes and improvements to melee classes, but having this unintended interaction makes it more difficult for us to introduce them and see their impact clearly. We’re also not saying that we're definitely not bringing this interaction back in some form later on, but as it is now, we do consider it a bug to be fixed.

Thank you for discussing suggestions and ideas around this (constructively). We have already started discussing the matter more with the team, and will continue to do so. I will be closing this thread now.
