nMA Stage 4 Round 1 Uppercut OP (BUG) (Accessing Clockwork City from MA)

Merlin13KAGL · October 2017

Playing nMA Stage 4 (Seht's) on my L29 Stam Warden. Dual Wield block the first melee spawn to get knocked back...

Wayyyyy back...(The 'landing' sequence essentially never kicked in.)

Eventually (20-30 seconds) die to horizontal fall damage

and end up here (Clockwork Interior notation)

The big area to the right is Seht's Balcony, btw.

Ride one direction and you can come across "Mephala's Ext 1" notation

Which, as it turns out, is the Sprial Shadows

Get close enough and the stage actually triggers

Get even closer and you can get the best seat in the house...perhaps even a selfie with the boss

Or go the other way and...

End up in the outskirts of Clockwork City, I presume:

At this point you cannot
- Fight anything (you're on the other side of the invisible wall.)
- /stuck (you're still considered in combat)
- wayshrine
- die (no way to take damage
You can /camp and later port (combat not yet triggered initially)
When you do return to the correct stage (MA puts you there), it no longer activates and nothing spawns, leading the condition above.

On a side note, it's impressive how much additional work the level designers put into the exterior of a zone that cannot be accessed. It's also a shame that it cannot be explored and truly integrated into the landscape.

I want a tour through the outer area as Reward for vMA

Just... wow.

@eso_nya I told you the areas where connected xD

@Feanor It's really cool. It looks as if they intended to make it walk-up accessible at one point, with platforms all around, some actual environmental blocks, buildings. So much you don't get to see from inside.

And We wonder why performance is bad in areas.

Who knew MSA was a whole mother zone of DLC pending to be dropped. Seems it’s existing zones too

I have find a way to get out of the map , i will do a post about this cause there is a secret arena that you didn't showed.

Yesterday I found a spot in Wrothgar where a mob would use uppercut on me and send me on a floating journey through the air for 15-20 seconds until I landed inside a big boulder.

I can reproduce it 100% of the time.

Vmas character recognition is choppy at best. A lot of times im trying to get back after respawning and theres no portal or npcs. I walk around casting but it shows all of my skills casting at start. Or ill spawn in to say, llamia stage, and a map wide aoe will kill me (like im standing in the water when im not) A dev really needs to take a look at it this instance its buggy af.

@Apherius , you mean this one?

Oh my

It is impressive how much junk they throw in to areas you can't see. It's also impressive how much that negatively impacts your performance

Actually, uppercuts are fatal in other areas too. I died twice in Coldharbor from fall damage, even though I was on flat ground. This is a new bug.

This reminds me of that time someone was selling a vma exploit for 5 million. Looks like op found it

This happened to me several times today in Obsidian Scar. Once an uppercut knocked me through several walls and deposited me in the middle of a different mob. The other times I ended up in a similar undeveloped out of bounds place, where an invisible wall existed between me and other players/monsters. Very weird.
