0 (zero) damage in Hard Mode GWEN - Guild Wars Forums

evilseabass · Oct 13, 2007, 03:08 PM // 15:08

Anyone else noticing that at random times you will do 0 damage to your target when you are in Hard Mode GWEN? I've grouped with many people for Hard Mode missions since it was released yesterday, and several people have experienced it in addition to myself.

Normal attacks, attack skills, and spells all do 0 damage for short periods of time, at random it seems, and against any type of enemy.

it could be a skill that raises armor...then again, as a monk, i hit zeroes all the time in normal mode.

Senrath · Oct 13, 2007, 04:34 PM // 16:34

I've seen this going on too. It's really confusing.

zwei2stein · Oct 13, 2007, 04:38 PM // 16:38

I had happened ever since gwen was released, this bug is not something new introduced with HM.

AW Lore · Oct 13, 2007, 04:43 PM // 16:43

are you in asuran lands? are you with Gadd?
Gadd has a hex that makes the enemy impervious to all but lighting damage.

Senrath · Oct 13, 2007, 04:44 PM // 16:44

sometimes, and no.

HawkofStorms · Oct 13, 2007, 06:21 PM // 18:21

Is there a prot monk on the other team? Is there high AL on the foes you are attacking? Are their shouts and buffs being used by the enemy? Is somebody on your team using Iron Mist?

Doesn't really sound like a bug, especially if you don't give more details. Its very common to hit for no damage in certain areas, not just GW:EN (where there are RoF monks, where their are monester skills like Abbadon's Fuvor, etc.)

TheMosesPHD · Oct 13, 2007, 07:47 PM // 19:47

You just need to bring large +damage skills I'm thinking. I've hit for 0 sometimes in Hard Mode, but it's expected since they're 6-8 lvls above me and have tons of armor.

Running into any of those? Might be others I missed, but those will all result in a zero damage, if I remember correctly. None of them 'block' or cause you to 'miss' like most stances and Shadow Form, so it will show a 0 for the damage.

I know Reversal of Fortune and Life Sheath are used relatively commonly by monsters in GW:EN.

This was a bug that was present since the release of GWEN. It went away, but since the updated yesterday, it has come back, in both normal mode and hard mode.

Its definitely not any normal skill, as it happens even when there are no monks/ritualists present, it even happens against the spiders when there are full ranger groups.

Even skills like meteor shower and lightning hammer cause 0 damage. Its somewhat annoying to say the least.

N E D M · Oct 14, 2007, 04:07 AM // 04:07

also in normal mode
also reversal of damage no longer blocks all damage only up to the amount reversed

Issac · Oct 19, 2007, 07:42 PM // 19:42

Its happens to me often and I'm pretty sure its not because of their skills or armor. It some glitch or something.

MagmaRed · Oct 19, 2007, 08:04 PM // 20:04

Agreed. After having it happen in places other then GW:EN, and in areas that made completing a quest/mission near impossible, I posted a topic in the Bug forum. If it can be predicted, I could learn to deal with it, but so far, I have no idea how to determine it will happen, or when it will end.
