query re: Advent Rebel Titan "Unyielding Will" ability

from Sins Forums

Hi all,

 

Just a small thing I've noticed with the AR titan is that once it's leveled up and taken the Unyielding Will ability, is that it no longer awards xp once it's finally destroyed (around 1200xp at this stage of the game).

 

From what I can tell from the game mechanics is that the titan is treated as an invulnerable unit (it does regenerates some health, shields and  a heap of anti-matter) for that next 6 mins before it self-destructs at the end of Unyielding Will.

 

Was it designed to be this way or is at a bug? it's just seems to be a bit of a cop-out when you've used a fleet of your titan and capital ships to get rid of it for no reward.

 

The titan still seem to give out kill xp before it gets this ability. So I think it may be an oversight in the coding of the games use of the ability itself.

I can't seem to find out what you mean...

What is broken?

It not getting XP in invulnerable

It getting XP in invulnerable

It giving XP before invulnerable

It giving XP after invulnerable

 

I haven't played in a long time so not sure what it does currently

Ok, to clarify this is when fight against the AR titan, before the AR titan has taken any levels of "Unyielding Will" everything seems to be working fine.

 

Once it has a level of "Unyielding Will" this is where things start to go a bit weird, just as I'm about to kill a lone AR titan, "Unyielding Will" activates just as it should, I've got my fleet still in the gravity well (without jumping out of it) and keep making the AR titan chase me around until "Unyielding Will" wears of and it finally dies, my titan and capital ships that survive are still at the same xp amount at the end of the battle as they were at the start of the battle.

 

Thus the xp bug seems to be within the execution (codewise) of the "Unyielding Will" ability.

 

Hope that clears up any confusion for you.

Yep, this is correct... They would have to make some code changes to make this work right.
