@Fox 50% status effect skills such as Baron Traitors "No More Than Me," Oikawas "Hazuoshi," and the Undertakers "Old School" are now listed at 98% accuracy on the wiki, while other skills like Cavenfishs "Lead Rain" still remain at 50% like usual (rightfully so). A nice buff for the monsters on the weaker end of the spectrum, but is this actually official?

@Boro-Wing

I can't tell whether or not you are confusing accuracy with effect trigger chances. An attack could even have 100% accuracy while the effect is either 'may' (100%, ignoring immunity or resistance) or 50%.

Accuracy is the chance of the attack landing and has no relevance to the chance of the effect landing.

I think they want to sell as many copies of Kihaku first, before telling people "whoops, didn't realize there is this little bug here".

You will probably see this bug fixed sometime after a Rank-up Offer is given for Kihaku.

You know the drill: sell the monster then nerf it later.

According to the wiki, right now a lot of the skills (almost all) that say 50% chance to land an effect are more likely 98% chance to land an effect (yes, Kihaku's Katsu Jinken is OP, 98% 0 cd Possession and Freeze to all enemies, of course if the attack lands, it's still 90%)

Also resurrection skills that say 50% life actually bring back the monster with full life (Samael's Necromantic Secrects, Metalisha's One More Song).

So I think there's certainly a bug or two

What i read is that all skills that released after Samuel and say 50% are actually 100 % instead
@carlos ?

@Haka-Taka said in So whats going on with status effects with 50% accuracy? No longer a bug or what?:

don't think people are to annoyed with it but it's been around now for quit some time and people choose these skills now on purpose because of less stamina costs and less cd. and when it get's fixed its not a nerf @Portgas-D-Ace but a fix maybe you dont like it but it's still a fix

Riiight, I was probably understating it calling it a nerf, my apologies.

You are absolutely correct, it is much closer to like a dog getting "fixed".

Forum mods really knows their stuff.

@Haka-Taka Tha is a bug that will be fixed soon!

@Carlos Dang, would've liked to see skills like the Undertakers Old School and Baron Traitors No More Than Me stay the same. They aren't the same without

@keki14 As Haka mentioned earlier, it's all skills after the release of Sammy with a 50% chance to land effect are actually landing the effect 100% of the time. This also applies to healing skills. More so, I think it applies to some older monsters too. I can't tell you the amount of times Thetys has landed her 50% AoE Freeze on all my monsters as of late...

There is actually a pretty OP monster right now because of that bug, but I think players have yet to discover who it is.

As per the 98% chance that's been showing up on wiki, I think maybe the chance to land skills is being dropped from 100% -> 98 - 99%? For those skills that say "may land..." That's just speculation. It could very well be nothing.

@Carlos can you share your knowledge

@ArmorGaming I'm pretty sure this also applies to some older monsters too, but not all of them (I think Cavenfish 50% stun is actually 50%). About Thetys maybe you are right, if my monsters were not hardened or above, the freeze always landed.

I need to find that monster

love your vids btw

@Carlos Oh come on! I'm willing to bet that if you made a poll "Should we fix it or not?" the majority would say no. This "bug" is what many monsters are built on, it's what made them, and the entire game more interesting! In the future, go ahead and make 50%s again but please please leave the existing ones alone. Wouldn't changing the skills' descriptions be easier to do?

That reminds me. Hydrok's special. Can it pleaaaase become an AOE? All VIPs have their specials as AOEs, even Scarr got his buffed to being one!

EDIT: Oh but yeah slash the revivals in half, they indeed are OP and devalue the poor ol' Uriel

Not me. I buy based on what I understand the skill is intended to be, not on the basis of an obvious bug which should ultimately be fixed. Sure, enjoy the bug while it remains - I certainly do with Nautilus - but expect it to be fixed, as it should be.

@Szymon-Zin
Your Kihaku will still be good

@Haka-Taka Kihaku will be fine. Others not so much

Is there a list of all possible status effects and control effects . Mainly I was trying to decide if total blind was a status effect . which i determined it was . Is there a comprehensive list of all control / torture / status effects possible . I would very much like a complete directory so i would not have to double guess myself
