Question for Beam Rifle players

[SuperPlyx]

Trying to get hang of my new Beam blaster, I was wondering is this weird delay from the time you can visually see your attack hit till the target takes damage normal ?

This is most noticeable in the snipe power, I swear I shoot the guy, see it hit and then have wait for him to show damage.

The delay seems way to long.

Yes there is a brief delay..but i love this power the most, got like 3 beam rifle toons, /ta /plant and /devices..

I dont know if it was intended but it wont stop me from playing the set 😃

You're not crazy. It's definitely an issue.

 

My guess is that the game engine thinks the beam is a projectile and doesn't apply damage until it hits the target (the delay seems correlated with distance). This was a problem for Zapp from Mu Mastery for awhile too, but was fixed in the last big update. Hopefully this gets looked at.

Just echoing this as well.

It is not you..
