This ability completely ruins stam, you line of sight it and it literally goes through walls. Im pretty sure theres no counter play to it. Please enlighten me. I can even go up against a magplar because when I need to go on defense by line of sighting and their beam is just following me through walls what do i do

    Definitely, I wouldn't be surprised if it got broke during an update

    It could also be a visual bug

    If it is going through LoS then I will definitely start using it lol

    You're about 2 years too late for the nerf Radiant Oppression train.
    Make Rush of Agony "Monsters only." People should not be consecutively crowd controlled in a PvP setting. Period.

    There is a bug that Jesus beam goes through walls for 1-2 ticks, i mean it wouldn't be a templar ability if it has no bugs right? @Joy_Division :wink:

    It's really, really frustrating however the majority of those situations come down to the server and your Client being desynced.
    For you the beam guy can't see you but the server hasn't noticed, also there are several things that provide visual LoS but aren't seen as real objects, many trees, some stones, thin objects especially in cyro Fall into this category.

    Especially with lag around the beams get interrupted way too fast or you see yourself beaming someone through alessia bridge. It's really frustrating for both sides as it's inconsistent sometimes my Jesus beam breaks while i had perfect sight on my enemy and then i kill someone who is already 2m behind a wall.
    I don't know what's causing that bug because it even happens with no noticeable lag but it defenitly increases when lag Kicks in.

    Probably it can't be fixed with Jesus beam in its current form so i guess until templar gets a reworked beam that's not a dps loss anymore you will encounter it. Sometimes in your favour sometimes not.

    It seems unfair because if I charge up a heavy fire or ice attack, it gets canceled when the enemy loses LoS.

    But I won't jump on the nerf wagon because there's too much of that going on.

    My bad. I got the wrong impression from "This ability completely ruins stam," "Im pretty sure theres no counter play to it," and "I cant even go up against a magplar".

    Which?

    Both should be broken by LoS

    Last I saw both were

    Last I saw only Zaan was ignoring LoS

    And last I saw every class can counter Zaan.
    NB cloak it
    DK’s Out heal it / Block it.
    Sorcs Shield it / streak away from it.
    Templars can cleanse it (unless that’s fixed now) and can out heal it.. both mag and stam
    Wardens can easily out heal it and sprint away from it.

    If you can’t counter Zaan, just don’t PvP.

    Zaan doesn’t need a nerf for all of those reasons, and the fact not many good people use it. And if they do, 80% of the time it’s a MagDK which isn’t a big deal considering most MagDKs suck and already hardly do any damage as it is.

    And the other 20% using it just suck in general

    I’ve been having trouble with LOS on those pillars specifically. It’s not a SA issue I don’t think.

    yes just leave a set in the game that's better than an ultimate and that provides enough free Damage that a fulll tank can kill People, great balance.
    The set is unbalanced as hell, why not bring back double proc Viper and selene i mean they could be dealt with too with that logic.

    the issue with the set it that the set with the highest burst pressure in this game is better than an ultimate that's designed to be a 1 man nuke while the coutner Play the set offers can be countered.
    if you want to have this much free Damage it has to be so easy to counter that not even a Player with 1 hour of Play time should die to it and not some *** where the wearer can counter the attempt of the enemy to avoid 25k free proc Damage.

    Wtf? It's not a comment on the set as good or bad.

    It's just a fact, that last time I saw Zaan used or when I used Zaan, it ignored LoS.

    Simple fact.

    I do not know if during the last update it was changed or not.

    Just ready to jump at me over anything at this point huh?

    Radiant definitely breaks on LOS, but it doesn't check LOS as often as it deals damage, which sometimes allows it to get an extra tick or two after you get behind an object. This is good IMO, otherwise the skill will break erroneously too often when near any object.
