I purchased Jasastur from the offer and just want to get a clear answer whether this Abomination trait is supposed to protect against the exclusive possessions such as Hacked, Glitched, Corrupted, etc.?

If it is, I hope you guys are aware it is not working, and that a fix will come in the near future.

Propably you read carlos post but just in case
@Carlos said in Combat Change: Possession (v5.8) (Game Updates):

Possesion Immunity Trait: Blocks "regular" possesions.
Possesion Immunity Skill: Blocks "regular" and "exclusive" possesions.

@Haka-Taka

Yeah I am asking specifically because I read Carlos's posts.

What you quoted were the regular Possess Immune traits, such as that for Nishant's Bodyguard.

However Carlos also commented before that Abomination Trait is supposed to be different in that it should protect against all forms of possession.

Hence I am confused, did he go back on his word, and now Abomination is just like any other garden variety Possess Immune?

Or like so many other bugs, it is meant to be fixed but they don't have time yet?

Or is it like the Ouros Trait bug (where he can be frozen) which only affects a small population of Ouros they don't care about?

I am just not quite sure which of these situation is going on here is all.

He said in another line

no monster is (actually) immune to "exclusive possesion"

@Haka-Taka

Here is the entire paragraph of what you quoted:

@Carlos said in Combat Change: Possession (v5.8) (Game Updates):

But for making it easier to understand, it is possible that we unify all exclusive possesions in one. For players, output will be the same: no monster is (actually) immune to "exclusive possesion" and we won't have multiple effects doing the same.
Saying this short, is possible that corrupted and glitched become hacked.

I noted the word "possible" being used at the various points of the response. I believe that is one of the end points they are considering when they put it like that, but not finalized yet.

@Carlos said in Thought on the new trait: ABOMINATION:

This one. It will be immune to ALL kinds of Possesion, Nightmares and Bleed

I've already spoke too much!

https://forums.socialpointgames.com/topic/1927/thought-on-the-new-trait-abomination/8

And here is where he spoke about "ALL kinds of Possession", which makes me believe to include exclusive possessions (as what other types of possession can he be referring to from the "ALL" if there is only 1 kind right?).

As you can see he is clearly giving conflicting info on different threads. Asking for a clear response as to which direction he intends to commit to should be consider a reasonable request. I think he owes the reader of his posts at least that much, no? Is not like I am asking for an official apology or compensation of anything.

@carlos

waiting for your clarification about Abomination trait

Hi. Sorry for the late reply.

Abomination Trait blocks "Regular" and "Exclusive" possessions.

So I'm afraid that sadly there's another bug with this trait It is added to the fixing list.

We are trying to improve our communication, so we will try to not to fix the bugs "On the fly" as i was doing lately. We will release fixing patches with changelogs and notes, so everybody could be better informed about what we are fixing and when.

If you have another question, please, don't hesitate to ask!

@Carlos

Thanks Carlos for the clarification, and good to know this bug is already on your radar.
