Items That Block Healing Potentially Bugged + Match Example

[DJKeterson]

Hey guys,

First of all, thank you for the game and all your hard work. I've noticed only this bug so far but it appears major so I'll try to keep it to the point and provide match info.

Items that block healing rate of enemies such as Toxic Bullets weapon and Decay spirit item.
Toxic Bullets claim to have 65% healing reduction and Decay 50% on activation.

In a couple of matches I always had the feeling these don't work and I believe I narrowed it down to the root cause - it might be bugged only against Abrams and no matter if I activate Decay on him or keep shooting him with auto-attacks with TB equipped his healing rates appear untouched while the expected behavior would be taht his healing would get crippled.

To be specific, I'm not expecting it to be stacking the 2 mentioned items for even bigger healing rate reduction but they don't work on their own nor in combination as I've tested.

Other than checking for validity of this particular report, if you could please let us know if your intention was to allow stacking such items (65 + 50 would in that case completely block all healing) or limit to 1 item's effect exclusively, we would all appreciate it.

MATCH 12227048 - Toxic Bullets on me, playing Haze vs Abrams, from minute 41 to end.
MATCH 12199038 - Decay on me, playing Wraith vs Abrams, from minute 27 to end.

Both of the replays can be checked after I got the particular items per as mentioned above. If you need more info, feel free to let me know. I'll check on this every now and then.

Thank you and have a wonderful weekend!

Any chance this could get reviewed?

Not dev, but here you go.
Toxic bullets and decay clearly work in the sandbox, please specify what kind of testing you did to try and recreate the issue.

As for the replays
In the first replay toxic bullets only proced twice on abrams. Both times he barely restored any health after losing a significant portion of their health. He went from 2.5k hp down to 700 and should've regenerated around 600 hp back with his passive. It's hard to judge how much he healed there specifically since he was taking damage, but I have a lot of doubts it was 600.


In the second replay decay was used on abrams 3 times. In first instance he takes about a thousand damage, after which he uses healing nova. With his healing booster it should've been 325+~310 hp restored. I only can see him restoring around 400 which is expected since healing booster also lowers decay's effect
In the second instance he presses healing nova and but his hp stayed at about the same level because he was also taking damage from decay and other sources. Hard to tell in this one.

Third instance he dealth 463 melee damage to you which should healed him for 457 hp because of his healing booster and lifestrike, but you can only notice around 300 hp being restored. It's more than 50%, but again healing booster reduces the effect of decay.
