Bittersweet victory

[Catapult]

The log says most of what happened. I believe I'm not the only one with this experience.



Only the warrior survived. He swaps out to Marauder, but raise has a recast timer of 5 minutes that has to start ticking down.
We get kicked out of the Bowl in 5 minutes.
Only the marauder got his spoils.

Now the usual sadness aside, what actually worries me most is that according to the log, even on the server end, it is allowing Ifrit to kill someone after it has itself been killed.

Is this something that can actually be patched?

I've seen this happen maybe once but its not really a big deal. You don't lose your lamp if you don't open the chest anyways.

Unless you go and hand the quest in... (yeah, made that mistake without thinking)

You should think of it like 2 gunmen in a shootout. If they both fire their shot at the same time just because Person A's hit first doesn't make person B's disappear at the same time. In the same sense the attack is a blast that occurred just as ifrit died aka they both go off at the same time it's not something you can really prevent unless you manage to kill him before said blast goes off. It's not really a glitch or anything the player in question just wasn't able to take down Ifrit before the blast went off, since it is possible to negate the cracks if you can kill him before they are ready to initiate.

The chat log doesn't necessarily display events in the exact same order as they happened on the server.

[Eruantien]

its happened in games time and time again, you just kill each other at the same time, I have once won Ifrit with no-one alive.

how do 3 people get killed by one eruption? has the lag gotten worse since 1.18 when it was pretty bad but still completely possible or were u guys just getting greedy at the end trying to kill him before u died?

The bigger issue here I think is the raise timer and the 5 min timer on loot distribution. This is absolutely something that should be adressed as it frustrates the player for something that should have been a victory. Will it be patched before 2.0 however? Probably not.

I am still holding out hope for some messiah patch in 1.23 that will fix a lot of this stuff concerning primals and their loot. Yoshi P did mention a change coming in one of those interviews he just refused to go into any details.

In the mean time, start carrying the Grand Company raise items.
