View Full Version : Skills randomly not activating

Just re-reporting here since this is the official "bug report" forum.

On occasion, when I charge a skill on my sorc, it does not activate upon releasing the button. The character animation does occur, but no skill activation. The actual skill and skill slot do not matter, it's random and seems to happen on all of my mapped skills.

Another thread describing the problem here: http://www.spacetimestudios.com/showthread.php?88125-Skill-activation-glitch&p=986307#post986307

Hope you guys can look into this soon. It's especially troubling when I run into a huge mob expecting to stun them and end up just standing there with a lot of aggro. :p

I usually don't post on forums, although I read them regularly. AL is good game, although my personal opinion is, that the latest updates are making it less enjoyable. Anyway, it's right of the guys in STS to make changes to the game mechanics. What frustrates me is, that these guys ignore bugs like this one. The issue with skills not working properly has been reported several days ago and I haven't seen not even confirmation that it has been recorded. The result is, that I'm logging into the game less frequenly and for shorter time...until I'll just stop playing it completely....

I had this issue the other day and it made me rage quit pvp. I know since we all play on touch screens that could be a contributing factor but when i press the buttong on my screen it should work. Maybe a touch sensetivity setting would be nice?

The best is when it's a 10+ sec cool-down spell that goes on cd, but the spell never cast...

Same exact thing happens to me, it normally happens more often when I have high ping so it might have something to do with with lag time. Something like when we lag the game just "forgets" that we cast a spell and never triggers it.

Thats one way that this happens... However it also happens to me when my connection is not only strong but also stable (without any lag at all) so its reaaaally frustrating.

Not only mages... this happens to me on rogue too, usually when charging attacks.

naw it doesnt have to do with touch devices.
I play on chrome and my bomb/razor bugs out so much it drives me nuts

I can confirm this happens on both my mage and rogue. Didn't play enough with my warrior yet to know if it happens there too.

Very annoying.

Happens on my Mage and Rogue definitely. I think I saw it happening yesterday on my warrior but it was in mayhem so I might have bumbled the tap somehow (but doubt it since the cool-down was triggered). iPad on solid high speed wireless, never lag.
