Skarn's Bane does no damage!!?!!??

[Archived Post]

So i read the tool tip and bought Skarn's bane!

The problem is it doesnt do anything.

its pretty much impossible to respec now since it costs a truckload to do so im stuck with a gimped character than has one less power.

Guess i should have tested it on a dummy first, but i really shouldnt have to IMO. I mean, the power should work right?

Anyone else having this problem?

Does it do literally 0 damage?

/never tried it

That's the sorcery close range cone AoE right?

Yeah, it worked at the end of Beta...

It's bugged.

No it didn't I tested it every day of the beta and never saw it do a single point of damage. .

I grabbed it during the end event and was using it in my nemesis missions to do damage, as that I stupidly grabbed the knockback ability on Ebon Rift which made it pretty much useless, so Skarn's Bane and Condemn were about the only two powers I had that did anything worthwhile.

My build also sucked. I just grabbed a bunch of powers after popping to 40 and started killing stuff with no thought to it.

I made the same mistake with ebon rift, but if what you say is true then why does skarn's bane work for a select few and not at all for most?

No idea whatsoever.

I'll believe it doesn't work for you if you'll believe it did work for me.

For the Dev's Siaka@krylo if you want to data mine it having worked and see if you can come up with a reason.

It did not work for the longest time, then it started working untill you took damage, then it did not work again, and at the end of beta it was working, but doing pretty terrible damage. It seems to not be working again. I hope they get this all ironed out before release.

It does damage after you grab the root advantage.

Don't ask... I couldn't figure out why either.

Skarn's Bane is currently only doing damage when you take the Warlock's Malice advantage. Hopefully this isn't intended and will get fixed soon. It also couldn't be upranked last time I checked.

It was supposedly fixed before live.

So that makes a full week of it being broken -_-
