Ukase Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 We all know Rage Crash is no fun. But, Rage is fun, so we deal with it. While I noticed that Foot Stomp doesn't do any damage while Rage-crashed, I do get the damage mitigation. So, I figured I'd try to see if I can take advantage of the Nem Staff KB while crashed. Well, I missed, but Sands of Mu allowed for full damage, despite the rage crash still showing as active in Combat attributes. Perhaps this is WAI. Perhaps not. Figured I'd report it.

ZorkNemesis Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 I believe this is working as intended. The four Veteran attacks (Sands of Mu, Ghost Slaying Axe, Nemesis Staff, and Blackwand) were coded to ignore damage buffs but they have a higher damage scaling so they're still decent at upper levels. It likely works in both directions and the powers also ignore damage penalties as well. Currently playing on Indomitable as @Zork Nemesis; was a Protector native on live.

Bionic_Flea Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 It's been that way since live. That's one of the things I use during the crash: taunt, dull pain, vet or temp powers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazarillo Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 The most effective power to use during a Rage crash is alt+tab. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeregrineFalcon Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Or instead try Taunt, Nemesis Staff and Hand Clap. By the time those are done animating the Rage crash is over. So many of you act like the 10 second Rage crash is the end of the world. THE END OF THE WORLD!!!! Ahhhhhhhh! Ridiculous. 🙄 "It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion.

Being constantly offended doesn't mean you're right, it means you're too narcissistic to tolerate opinions different than your own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ukase Posted April 20, 2022 Author Share Posted April 20, 2022 Also of interest (to me, anyway)...the procs I've got in burn also work during the rage crash. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rage crash doesn't disable procs and procs are also not affected by damage buffs/debuffs. A proc heavy build can certainly circumvent rage crashes.

A proc heavy build can certainly circumvent rage crashes. I only started using procs a few months ago. And haven't played SS in a couple of years, so these were things of interest. But, it seemed to me that they probably shouldn't work during rage, which was my reason for posting initially. But, I guess I can take the good with the bad, lol.
