Arcane Marksman / Deadeye nonfunctional?

Post by SkullFace »

Attacking using Cold Shot with Frost Shroud running and 70+ MP available:
- You feel a chill about you as the magic causes the air around you to flash with ice crystals. You can feel the potential hanging in the air, waiting to be discharged. (2024-03-17 18:26:16).
- (2 times) You attack Ayleen Parsons with your Jack-O-Rifle and hit for 17 points of fire damage. Swirling icy energy reinforced this attack! You gain 7 XP. (2024-03-17 18:26:25).
- You attack Ayleen Parsons with your Jack-O-Rifle and hit for 17 points of fire damage. Swirling icy energy reinforced this attack! Your weapon was damaged during the attack. It is now less effective! Your weapon is now out of ammunition. You gain 7 XP. This was enough to kill them! You gain an additional 4 Experience Points! (2024-03-17 18:26:26).
- You reload your Jack-O-Rifle with your Rifle Magazine. (2024-03-17 18:26:42).

- You attack Amiri Stein with your Jack-O-Rifle and miss. (2024-03-17 18:28:46).
- You feel the effects of Frost Shroud fade. (2024-03-17 18:28:46).
- You attack Amiri Stein with your Jack-O-Rifle and miss. (2024-03-17 18:28:59).
- (2 times) You attack Amiri Stein with your Jack-O-Rifle and hit for 11 points of fire damage. You gain 5 XP. (2024-03-17 18:29:08).
- You feel a chill about you as the magic causes the air around you to flash with ice crystals. You can feel the potential hanging in the air, waiting to be discharged. (2024-03-17 18:29:15).
- You attack Amiri Stein with your Jack-O-Rifle and hit for 17 points of fire damage. Swirling icy energy reinforced this attack! Your weapon is now out of ammunition. You gain 7 XP. (2024-03-17 18:29:34).
- You attack Amiri Stein with your Infernal Jaeger Rifle and hit for 17 points of acid damage. Swirling icy energy reinforced this attack! You gain 7 XP. This was enough to kill them! You gain an additional 4 Experience Points! (2024-03-17 18:30:32).
It appears that Cold Shot is not doing Cold damage, it is doing underlying Rifle damage and consuming ammo (two different Rifles used in above example).

Update. According to my log it was fine on 11/03/2024 when I capped Iona:
You feel a chill about you as the magic causes the air around you to flash with ice crystals. You can feel the potential hanging in the air, waiting to be discharged. (2024-03-11 18:54:32).
You emote, " narrows his eyes, gazing at the mage." (2024-03-11 18:55:00).
You attack Iona with your Jack-O-Rifle and hit for 20 points of cold damage. Swirling icy energy reinforced this attack! The attack left a lingering chill! Her armor soaked 2 points of damage. This attack was endowed with magical energy! You gain 20 XP. (2024-03-11 18:55:08).
Also fine when attacking Ice Queen during most recent hunt.

Yeah it's a pretty recent bug, but jeeez, the way you phrased that you just left the impression that it's already fixed. It most certainly is NOT, and I have lost more than half a week's worth of Stormguard Colossus loot because of this. I demand an extension on Wintertide! It's still parka weather most of the time for me IRL anyway, although my neighbors seem to disagree.
I've tested it with and without "display icons for charged attacks" enabled. I've tried re-selecting it in the drop-down menu in case it was maybe just displaying the charged attack I wanted 'by default' or something instead of actually having it selected. But no matter what I try, the fact remains...
Arcane Shot and Piercing Shot only seem to work on wards right now.
And even then, it seems to have trouble staying selected, even though I have both "remember charged attacks" options checkmarked... although that might be a different bug.

Still happening:
- You feel a chill about you as the magic causes the air around you to flash with ice crystals. You can feel the potential hanging in the air, waiting to be discharged. (2024-03-25 17:15:33).
- You attack Katerina Hasheen with your Infernal Jaeger Rifle and hit for 9 points of acid damage. Swirling icy energy reinforced this attack! Her armor soaked 8 points of damage. Your attack also damaged and weakened her Suit of Light Body Armor. It is less effective! You gain 9 XP. (2024-03-25 17:16:03).
Still using up ammo and not delivering correct damage and type.
