Scourge Warlock Fiery Bolt

in Bug Reports (Xbox One)
I've been noticing that the Fiery Bolt Encounter power is not acting correctly. What has been happening is I will kill something and move on to something else, even another encounter, and when I hit the Fiery Bolt again it flies back to the previous encounter's location, if in range, and not do any damage to the current monsters. Once I noticed it doing this I began watching for it and it has been doing this consistently all day. It's getting so bad that I'm going to have to change powers.

Anyone else having this bug?

    It just did it twice again. And I got it recorded on my Xbox and I think uploaded to my One Drive but I don't know how to get it to the bug team.

    I think this will link to my One Drive and show the first recording of the bug. At the 26 second mark you will see the Fiery Bolt shoot off to my rear right hand side, about 4 to 5 o'clock. It is shooting back to the fight that I finished just before the start of the video.

    And I'll try to link to the second one too.

    Here is the link to the second time. At around the 22 second mark you will see it shoot straight out to the right towards the other combat area at almost a 3 o'clock angle.

    And I think I got a screen shot of that too that I will try to load up in case the links don't work.

    That one is the base screenshot that I uploaded to my Facebook page. The next is the same screen shot but with the bolt circled.

    Noticed this bug as well...whether its shooting in a random location, or doing no damage at all

    I've started paying close attention and it is going to the location of the last target hit if still in range, even if that target is no longer there. And only does damage if the intended new target is within the blast range of the old location.

    lol this still happens. I had that issue before but its long gone. I thought they fixed it. I ended up switching my build around and for a while started using curse bite instead. Then tried using fiery bolt again and it was working fine. Can't said exactly what i did that fixed it. I don't run dark revelry anymore. I got a siege master. I did not change anything else. Did you try playing with your log on? Try and see if its actually hitting something. Might be some effect that makes the dead enemy count as a target or something. I know others had the same problem but haven't heard them complain about it no more. Most just run arms of hadar and killing flames. Might be why no one notices no more.

    You might not hear much about sw bugs because most have stopped playing their warlocks. I rarely play mine and its been my main since xbox release. To low of damage compared to othe dps classes, to many bugs, and harder to find groups. Some day we will shine again and be plagued with even more bugs. But for now, seems most have given up. They know we have issues, same as most classes. But probably won't get any love til 12b at the earliest.

    Sadly it is my main but I'm seriously looking at switching to a CW for now. But hate to have to work another through the levels. And getting good gear.

    So at the moment I'm kind of using the SW to farm and help build AD so that when I can switch I have the surplus AD to get the equipment I want.

    SW is my main too. Recently I have just been playing her as a templock. Its impossible to run dps when people keep constantly trashing on your sw cause it can't keep up, and they have the need to let you know by "tells". I'm not switching to any other "dps" class as I tried them before and they feel boring and too point and click for my style. The only thing sw are good for now, is to make every gwf and cw effortlessly look better lol.

    I don't think we will ever go back to the dps we used to deal, or get even with the other classes. A simple speed increase on our animations and casting for our powers would do that, but I doubt it ever happens. They "balanced" the class to do as much damage as others without taking into account our casting speed. The class is still ok, but it doesn't reflects on paingiver, so sw are trash. Whatever

    Just try the CW. It wont take as much investment to do better than a BIS skilled SW. ez game. Don't hope for any buffs to the class, but do so for fixes.
