ill try my best to explain this but take what i say with a grain of salt. if i could record this i would explain it better.
when you basic attack or charge basic attack. being that these are melee these attacks have to go threw a animation.
startup frames - lead into active frames.
active frames - are what collides with a allies or enemies hurt box/collision box. this is the point of the animation that is allowed to do damage, heal, buff or debuff.
recovery frames - are when the active frames have ended and the animation might recover. some charge skills will have to recover.
" charge skyward smash let go and hold back notice how you get stuck at the end of the animation? this is called recovery. you can not move until fully recovered "
how ever basic attacks are not like this. they have 0 recovery this is why you're able to move at the end of the animation when preforming a charged basic attack.
some skill attacks like charged skyward smash have recovery frames. i think this also happens with axe throw and windmil as well.
the thing with arcane legends is the " Auto lock" mechanic.
without this mechanic warriors in the current state will be unplayable. " its still really bad but playable"
this is because most of warriors kit " basic attack and skill attacks " have 1 active frame that only becomes active when a basic attack or skill attack is used. you have to be in range and locked onto a target for this active frame to become active. if you're not locked onto the target well... GG you're skill attack or basic attack will wiff completely. this is because you have to be range for this active frame to be come active.
for projectiles like aim shot,fire ball and axe throw
the projectile itself has animation and hitbox. the visual animation can be short but the hitbox of a projectile can stay active until it can collide with the target. i think projectiles have infinite active frames until it can collide with the target.
example
a rogue aim shots a mage at max range. the mage has 5000% movement speed. " 5k movespeed is not possible" just for a moment imagine it is for this example.
you basically want to out run the aim shot arrow as it travels. if the arrow cant catch you then the arrow basically travels for infinite.
if you stop running you might have to wait like a hour for the arrow to hit you. thats unless im wrong and the arrow vanishes eventually.
to sum this all up
if warriors chest splitter had the same range as aim shot.
chest splitter would happen instantly at max range because its not a projectile lol.
again take what i say with a grain of salt im probably wrong and i suck at explaining things through typing.
would any dev confirm this for me ?
with all that being said. please read it all. im out peace
P.O.G
p.s
arcane legends needs a aiming system and and toon lock mechanic.
you can find this in mobile legends.
