Settle an argument about Battle Stomp? #622473 27/09/17 02:55 PM

Also clears non-cursed surfaces and clouds." Ok, playing 4-player co-op with friends. They swear I am damaging them when I target nearby foes. I figure other status affects are hurting them but they are blaming my Battle Stomp for the damage. Who's right? :) -Sweep

Is it possible that the Battle Stomp is causing the surface to "tick" it's damage on any character within it whether it is removed or not? Last edited by Toazd; 27/09/17 03:34 PM.

Best way to know is to check your combat log, it will say for certain if your stomp damaged so and so or if they were hit by burning, etc. little box on the bottom right toggles combat log

The damage itself is a giveaway; Battle Stomp does way more damage than a tick from environmental effects. And lastly, the combat log should give you an answer. Long story short, no. You're not directly hitting them with it.

You can almost always see if something is getting targeted by whether they get an outline or not. Things that are outlined will get hit by the effect, while things that are not outlined will not. Honestly, the fact that Battle Stomp does not hit allies is probably part of the reason why it's so insanely powerful. If it did, it would be a lot harder to use. I really wish that we could adjust the arcs of certain skills and things like grenades, and the range of certain AoE skills, especially since there's things that extend ranges, but I guess it wouldn't work with controllers, so we're SOL.

I was under the impression that we could that with modding. I'm reasonably certain that I could override certain parts of skills like the friend/foe part of Battle Stomp.
