(BUG) Reflective Scale expenses reflected spell's cost

ZeroTheCat · September 2014

And to those people saying go meele. Even if I use DW against a DK the most skills useable in that tree are considered "ranged spells" anyway so I have no chance at all whatever I do! Even if I could use meele I would get destroyed by their standard of OPness. The only players that doesn't think this needs changing are obviously DK players themselves. Sadly this skill is alone destroying pvp in this game at the moment. It's sad because many players seems to be ignoring pvp right now beacuse of the inbalances. Or re-Rolling DKs. Maybe thats what we all should do I guess..

Skills in DW tree are not ranged spells and flying dagger isn't even considered a projectile.

This thread is just going to be an endless fountain of tears just like every DK thread. Funny how I don't have a problem with other Scale spamming dragon knights, because I hit them all with a sword.

Adapt.

Can we make this guy moderator over threads whining about skills that works as intended and the players needs to adapt?

1000 awesome to you sir.

When a player, DK, or ANY player in Cyro. Starts to buff like mad....lights up like a christmas tree....then said player runs ALONE, into your army.

DO NOT ATTACK...for 4-5 seconds.

Very complex tactic, I know.....

Yes don't attack for 4 to 5 seconds then they refresh after 4 seconds and we shall not attack for 4 or 5 more seconds and again all the while standing in the standards getting talons spammed on us this plan couldn't sound any better. Your tactics are undeniable well played.

Saying do not attack is wrong. Instead, do not use projectile attacks.

Seriously people are smart enough to kill me when im using scales, so I see this forum crowd complaining about the inability to damage and kill a scales users as minority of baddies. Probably the handful of people that dont take the hint when the wings pop out.

Why is it being reflected then??

Kego · September 2014

Flying dagger is a projectile and Scales does not only reflect Magic, it reflects ranged phys. attacks as well.

You obviously don't know how the Dragonknight works if you think it's so easy.
Have you ever played Guitar Hero? Face-tanking 10-15 people involves more finger movement than playing Through The Fire and Flames on Expert and scoring 80-90%.

well it doesent metter how hard its is to achieve the ability, the problem is
one class can achieve it while 3 classes cant.
to use your example while DKs have a controller enabling them playing guitar hero, while all other classes are sitting there with a newspaperin their hands.

Have you tried sparks on a DK? most of their damage is melee, they have no ranged class spells.

Beats me. never been reflected before. maybe they changed it to being a projectile in a ninja fashion. You can't even reflect NPC flying blades either the last time I checked.

Baphomet · October 2014

That's true - snipe, venom arrow, flying blade, they all go through reflective scales now. Either they broke it or changed it so that only magical attacks are being reflected.

In either case, I didn't see any mention of it in any patch notes.

olsborg · October 2014

reflective scales is a joke, way too OP. Id say the same for Green dragonblood(since its spammable)

(I play a dk)

Gorthax · December 2014

it reflects the meteor ultimate which already can be blocked by a shield user. not to mention it also shuts down over load light attacks. Overload is udnerstandable but to reflect a GIANT FREAKING SPACE ROCK HURLING AT YOU!!!! ummmm NO!
