Gating just got "interesting"

Unread postby Trevan » 25 Jul 2006, 07:57

I posted this in the bug thread up top, but this was too strange to not call some attention to it.

You can kill gated creatures by targeting them on the ATB bar. Before they've been gated in. In fact, any single target effect can hit them. You can slow them, lightning bolt them, attack them in melee or range, probably even resurrect them. You can even Phantom Force them.

Haven't seen anyone mention this yet...but maybe I just missed it. But maybe I didn't.

I havent noticed anything like that, but I guess its some kind of a bug, but since gated creatures can be buffed and harmed by magic even before they appear, I think it should be fixed.

Wow, I must say I am impressed with this find. Maybe the person who found this or some others can see if this works on battlediving griffins?

Not if we shut about it or if they find it anyway, threats of some kind can be a way to get our will done... :devious:

I forgot, thanks for reminding me. Yeah, this is a pretty bad bug. But speaking of bugs, apparently the AI can still cast spells on BD griffins.
