If you want, watch the video first, but if I get anyone saying something I already wrote about in the thread I gonna freak out… :P

There are some reasons why I post this here in the PvP-forum.
First, I don´t have any faith into the Bugs-forum or the ingame bug-report anymore. For example the missing 10% healing in Withdraw are still missing after 4 month (it was listed in the Game Release Notes) and not a single word about it was giving by a dev. So if this gets fixed I know that the devs have been reading that post and just ignore it purposely.

Then there is another important point that everyone should know that problem. For example in this video I give the slow on the revenant with my F2, which is completely ok. In a fight I can´t know that he will use unrelanting assault. So technically its not my fault and I can´t control it. I´m sure that “exploit” happened a lot without people even noticing it (haven´t read a single word aboout that before). You can of course try to exploit it, but at the end it relies on the revenant himself. I could try to stop using my F2 Essence Sap, but should I really stop using my class-mechanic just because something could happen IF the other one uses exactly that single skill? Btw there is either the tooltip wrong or its a bug, too, because the stolen skill applies around 4sec slow each. Now it would be possible to fix it to 1sec. I don´t like that honestly because that amount of slow is exactly doing what it should do…Giving something useful to fight against the class, what a lot of stolen skills aren´t doing right now (chill was very strong against eles if it successfully was applied, but eles got stronger and stronger against that condition). But thats another point of balance.

So if everyone knows about it, its possible to avoid it by revenants themselves. You can´t blame people that they use skills in that game so this accidently happened.
I go the way that its better to be informed than kept unknowing why your skill wasn´t doing what it should do. So if you got hit by slow as a revenant DON`T use Unrelanting Assault.

—> Imprtant stuff here!

So here we go: How to counter UA… or how to avoid it until fixed

I found it while duelling.
If anyone can´t or don´t want to look the video…Basically if you apply slow to a revenant and he uses Unrelanting Assault he won´t deal ANY DAMAGE AT ALL.

Well, I hope I won´t get banned for posting it and devs recognise the reasons why I think everyone should be aware of that “bug” (is it maybe itended counterplay? :P ).

Slow breaks other skills, including stomping, which is arguably super important in PvP. It was obviously not tested very well before it went live. There have been numerous posts on the forums about the issues and no replies, so I’m not surprised you didn’t hear back either. Maybe in in the year 2025 we’ll at least be able to stomp when slowed.

So many words and I had to watch the video to understand the bug. Holy hell get to the point when reporting an issue.
If you report bugs this way, I’m not surprised they never get fixed lol

- Unrelenting Assault deals no damage if the revenant is affected by Slow.

Here, ONE line. x_x

Sometimes i want to be a game developer you can release the product even there’s a lot of bug and just ignore the report of bugs from customers. cough Bulls Charge cough , cough Earth Shaker cough.

To bug report like a pro, describe the bug first in a clear sentence or two.

Bug report works. …Sometimes.

If you counter slow with quickness from Impossible Odds it works just fine using s3. This skill has almost no counterplay so they could add somehing instead of slow bug. Yes u can dodge 3times to avoid most of the dmg(still can get hit between dodges)but thats not rly a counterplay. Stealth is ok if u have a quick acces to it and dont die trying to combo but then they can just prevent it with reveal. What i think is unfair is that this skill has 450 range at start but then infinite range once its goin and even portalling or shadowstepping doesnt save u. This skill should stop when ppl go out of range. Slow bug should be fixed tho

Devs will add slow condition removal to UA! Problem solved!

Thief might not be as strong as last year
but they’re a lot stronger
than they will be next year!
