034 Alchemist [400] v1.0.5

[Passarelli]

Cyber, remember that only one EE will proc at a time. I'm not even sure if you get an extra chance to proc EE or ironclad with multiple alchemists within range. That is the only way I can see it getting out of hand. Imagine Night Elf camping Italy with 3 alchemists each giving him Ironclad. If Ironclad is 30% chance, the NE would end up with 75% evade. The alchemists would be able to rotate their wards to make sure that someone could always get entangled. It just gets too crazy. That's why I kinda doubt the buffs stack.

Zero, so you know the tooltip is very wrong

Equivalent Exchange: Chance to have damage done by himself or any teammate within the radius be converted directly into life which is divided amongst the players in that area.
.

The way this reads, it should be when the alchemist or an ally deals damage they gain health instead of when they take damage.


Also, anytime Ironclad procced, Evolution's game crashed. Could you let us know what he needs to delete or at least how to properly troubleshoot this?

[ZERO]

We noticed something like this earlier in testing with that ability but then it randomly stopped. Given that it works exactly the same code as Jacks effects we were not able to show that the effect itself or ability caused the crashing. We also got it to crash without having any related races running and we later got it to work normally without issue for a good amount of time.

We might learn more as additional effects are programed.

Oh, cool! So it is a life leech effect then! When we first started testing we went alchemist against shadow hunter and couldn't figure out why it wasn't proccing.

Is this going to stack with vamp aura for Undead?

[ZERO]

Can anyone confirm that Ironclad Alchemy does cause the shot to be evaded and that no damage is taken.

[Passarelli]

Ironclad does indeed count as an evade. It also evades some abilities such as critical grenades. Not sure if it will evade all abilities, but it can definitely evade some.
