For some reason, the block jumps around even when the mob doesn't hit. Like, I was battling a pack of mudcrabs, and the black was first 80. Then it went UP to 92, then to 61 and it went down from there even if the attack was completely blocked the defence. It went about 20 when the crabs hit with their ability but that is normal. This is all so confusing, and sometimes the number keys don't work. Also, sometimes the whole pve system lags for a few seconds, but clicking the attack button again forces it to continue, usually.

Then another time I was battling a young hydra. Then, I manage to dodge him a couple times (hey, isn't that weird? It says i have 95% hit chance!) But then it took 27 block off! Dang! I think you did something wrong! In short, I am not as happy with the new PVE system as I could have been. I know this probably makes you sad, but I can't help that. I mean, I am not mad at you. I just want the old system back until you can correct the new, or I want a temporary fix, or a workaround, or something! Cause this is going a bit over the edge!

Another time, I was battling some guy. It says: "some guy attempts to hit Merciless5000000, but he's blocked!" The block was originally 80, but it went UP to 81. Then, I dodged and it went down to 80, the mob was blocked and it went to 79. After that there were normal mob hits, but what is this? This is just foolishness!

A poor, rude response. Killer just gets excited because he likes MonBre. happy emoticon

Killer, thank you for the information, I will look into it now.

Edit: found a good bug, I'm pretty sure a lot of our troubles came because when the mob is blocked, it would add block to the monster.

Oh Vael. There's something else, it's really weird. Oh um two things actually.
1, sometimes the mob abilities can go past the block even if you still have plenty left, but other times the block steps in and works fine. THis has only happened with the hydra, which has a burning status effect with their ability.
2. Consume Darkness has only been updated in the pve page and not the normal skill page; on the skills page it still says (and does) only 40 hp heal. Was this intensional? If not, it is aok with me 'cause I rarely heal out of combat.

I'll investigate the mob abilities, but keep in mind some of them are direct-damage, like those hydra.

Thanks for the tip on consume darkness.

I just found a new bug with the block system. My monster, Merciless, has 106 block. But when battling bandersnatches, and I think this is it because it doesn't happen with collossi or crabs or snappers or what, I hit him to start the battle and he usually is blocked, or misses me, and the block goes down to 71. Exactly 35 points. This same -35 block thing happened when I had other block I think too, like 103 or 105. I think you should check out the stats. Also, the mob did not use any ability when the block went down. It was just a normal attack.

Wait it tactually happened with the stone crab too, but not the collosus, probably 'cause it SEES that you need the block and thereby keeps it on, or maybe because the collossus hit you anyway?

I wonder if it has to do with the leftover effect when a mob dies by an effect.
If on the previous fight the mob died from poison or bleading your next fight will start with reduced Block and defense.
I'm fighting with weaker monsters and ran into that problem.
The first fight taxed my monsters Move, HP, Block, and defense so that on the next fight it went down easily.
No Block plus zero defense equals bad! Me no like! Squash nasty bug!

Did I get it?

Nope it happened all the time. Here it is.
MOnster goes into battle all stats normal. yay!
Mob doesn't hit it. MOnster hit mob. Yay!
NOw here's the strange part.
Mob doesn't hit it. MOnster does. yay! AND during the turn, the block goes down by a specific ammount. When I was smaller and had like 100 block it went down by 35. As my block increased so did the ammount that it took off. And it was ALWAYS a multiple of 5.

Also, is this a bug? THe mob's hit chance is always a lot lower than yours but I can usually hit them 24 times out of 25. I mean, a69% hit chance means about 14 times out of 20. Or is that their chance to hit you?

Actually, if the mob hits a complete block (0 damage to block or hp) on first turn, the next turn the monster loses a nice ammount of block. So ...
monster hit mob. mob miss monster.
Monster hit mob. Mob hit monster. Block goes down before second turn. Dang it.

Ah! Okay, I bumped into it once now that I've noticed.
I was fighting a mob that absorbs energy from the ground to heal itself. It already had max HP so it got more defense and less speed in stead. But, at the same time it lowered my block by 51, weird.
Perhaps the key is a redundent effect. like if you are already affected by burn and you get burned again or something. I don't know about the regular hits though.

Was that an ent? Yes, it has happened a little bit, but I haven't upped my defence to absorb all of its damage. I have seen it on mobs where my cpower was like 10 above before I moved out. So yep. The block goes down by a set portion of the original if the mob doesn't hit on its first turn. I hate it, because if I dodge, which is usually a good thing, it makes my block crash to about like 104 and I usually take a lot more normal hp damage because of it. This is one that will really need fixing, Vael.

Don't worry killer, just give him time, he's working on a lot of stuff.
And, the block is much better then it was before, the monsters just use to get hurt from the getgo.

I think I might've fixed it. At least, I made it so that it will only damage if their damage is over 0... yeah, when I started it, a year and a half ago, I was kind of a big noob. -_______-

Now it's being REALLY weird. I was fighting a guy and when I finished and started another battle, I think it didn't add the block back on, and I lost a big chunk of defense too, probably also left over from the previous fight.

Except that it didn't, only yours. THere was no poison abilities the mob could use (though mine had a poison equip but it alomst always works.)

t even happens when you go back to the city. It happens only when poison KO's a mob. If you kill a mob, even if it has been poisoned, the block returns as normal. I mean, if YOUR hit hits the mob and takes it to 0, it works. if the hit doesn't get the mob completely but the POISON does, then the block doesn't come back, and no stats are reset, I mean, he still is kinda tired when he starts the next battle, and loses some defense and dodge.

Oh and, sorry Vael, but when it goes to healing stance, when I click it, it says
Robo corpsemaker 1000 , healing 39 health!
Like the old consume darkness. It works fine out of combat though. Maybe you mixed it up when fixing up consume darkness?

I am in the middle of changing skills to a new system. Please hold on and just wait for these small glitches to pass.
