It’s just that ride the lightning range is limited, so he stops before you and uses updraft right after, and you see him flying back as if you reflected him in rtl. Rtl form counts as a usual player form, you can hit ele in rtl with any ability like you normally would do.
The main reason people are sticking together and running in one big group, that looks kind of ugly and inorganic, is that AoE damage is limited to 5 people. There are buffing and healing benefits as well, since those work on close range too, but that’s secondary. I don’t know why it was done this way, maybe because some of the abilities scale too well, if they will work on everyone around, or maybe it has something to do with clipping, since sending notifications to 5 clients of course creates less load, than sending it to the whole zerg of 40 people.
So what do i suggest: 5 people cap for AoE damage abilities should be removed. That way people won’t stack upon each other like they do now and will start spreading to receive less damage from AoE. It will make battlefiled look more like a battlefield, give some space for individual dodging and movement prediction. I understand, that the ones who will benefit the most from this are staff elementalists, but that may come with area nerf to staff abilities, to balance the things out.
nvm, winsock reset helped, guess it had something to do with vpn software i installed recently.
I have the same error, can’t redownload client as well – it says the same thing, and yes, it happened around the same time too, and goes on for 2 days.
