srmalloy Posted August 26, 2022 Posted August 26, 2022 I thought that I'd seen it happen while soloing, and paid more attention to it while running Synapse and Manticore -- the Nova-form power Scatter, if you miss your target, has the character animation but no visual effect of the power; other nova-form powers have a normal miss 'power effect goes off into empty space' effect.
ZorkNemesis Posted August 27, 2022 Posted August 27, 2022 I seem to recall that's always been a thing, even during live days. Kheldian Nova Scatter just doesn't animate on a miss for some reason. Currently playing on Indomitable as @Zork Nemesis; was a Protector native on live.
srmalloy Posted August 27, 2022 Author Posted August 27, 2022 Hmm. I suppose the PS devs might have decided that computing s spray of misses would have been computationally expensive enough to be impractical to animate, but it seems sloppy and lazy, given the special-effect-fest that is the bowl of an MSR or the final phase of a Hami raid.
