    Warning: Stay off Ob's lawn...

    Hey guys,

    I am going to be submitting a bug report on this, but I wanted to put out a warning to other PUP; just in case.

    It was funny the first time it happened - but the novelty wore quickly...



    Hopefully they get him fixed so I can go back to farming a Disruptor.

    Good luck, all. Have fun!

    Is it possible they made an overall adjustment to Cannibal Blade that may benefit us, but it screwed up something with OB?

    I would normally say, how did something like this happen considering nothing they have done lately remotely ties into Ob and Cannibal Blade unless they directly buffed it without our knowledge.

    Or this is more evidence of their pathetic code where they adjust how grass animates in Jugnar forest which caused Cannibal blade to be overpowered.

    It's a good find indeed!

    Already reported, however.

    Yeah, when it happened last night, I saw that post (as I came running to see if it was a known issue) - but I posted a second bug report to corroborate the initial report's story. Never hurts to make sure the devs know that it is happening repeatedly.

    My bug-report also mentions my awareness that it was previously reported.

    My post here was for the PUP who don't wander over to the Bug forum. I wanted to save some poor soul from being turned inside out and Silence-of-the-Lambed like we were...

    If I had to guess, which is worth next to nothing, I would say that they likely nudged Cannibal Blade in some way; forgetting that Ob has some kind of formula tacked on to his that makes him all Notorious Monstery - resulting in his damage formula running wild.

    Either that, or they heard PUPs complaining about attachment drop rates and tweaked his drops, accidentally bumping a decimal point somewhere while they were in there with the screwdriver and hammer...

    Yes, it definitely does not hurt, especially if you have additional information to report. ^^
    I wish they didn't always lock the support/bug-report threads after reading them...


    Oh well!

    It's been like that for a while, seen up to 24k Cannibal Blades. He misses like hell, in the end I usually tanked him making him swap to Stormwaker.

    Hmmm. Perhaps there is a situational trigger, or something. I fight Ob a lot and I have never encountered this, previously; fighting mutliple times a week, for a few months, always with the "make him a PLD" strategy. Not saying that he has not done it before, as obviously any individual's experience is a limited sample - but this was completely new to our little duo.

    Regardless, SE has now indicated that it is not working as intended - so hopefully sometime soon it will return to normal.

    ----Edit to add the following----

    Also, I noticed that every time I have witnessed this problem, the damage has ended in a zero. I am now wondering if somehow there is a "decimal out of place" - as if his damage is calculated normally to be 1915 or something, but what hits the player is multiplied by 10 because of the error. My sampling is incredibly small, but even so it seems odd that I have never seen a damage that ends in a number other than zero.

    That's pretty crazy. A work around would be to bring a bunch of ranged DD or mages and just lock it in sharpshot/stormwaker mode.
