Useless Hp Charms

edited July 2009 in General Discussion
What's the point of having a HP charm??? I have now died 5 times because my charm refused to kick in. This started occuring since last Tuesday. Before last Thursday I have not had any issues with my charms.

It seems that this game is gettting worse. WHEN IS THERE GOING TO BE A PATCH TO ADRESS SOME OF THESE ISSUES?????? b:angryb:angryb:angry

    I've not had issues with charms lately - this is the first I have heard of it, actually.

    Had it already ticked, and then you were killed within 10 seconds?

    The closest I've had to experiencing this was that my HP dropped past half and my charm wouldn't tick (wasn't cooling down). But after another hit, it did.

    Nope.. My HP dropped to 30%. The charm did not kick and then the next hit I died.

    Sounds like lagg killed you.

    I would agree with that if my MP charm wasn't kicking off properly while my HP charm sits dormant.

    I assume this isn't the first time this happened?

    Correct, this has happned now to me 5 times in the last 5 days. There has been times when the charm has worked properly.

    My friend has had this happen a few times to him as well. and I think it happened to my wife the other night. she died to a normal mob hitting her with her charm and buffs up after spending the night killing them and none coming close after. I have yet to have it happen to me however

    Let's try this again.


    How many attacks did the mob take to drop you from 30% to dead?

    How many to drop you from just above 50 to 30?

    Fine, I'll be the one to ask...

    Did you equip the charm or is it just in your inventory?

    I would say just because it is there doesn't mean it going to save your life all the time.This happened to me as well when I was using a hp charm.

    It's better to think that you don't have a charm on that way you will be more careful.

    I did have the same happen to me but that was from a disconnect and it kept my character in. If I was kicked out fully I would've been alive because of my charm. However it did not click.

    But what can you do? Just have to get your exp back.

    That's funny because sometimes I wish my charm wouldn't be so quick to trigger.

    But if you find your charm to be useless, you can give any you don't want to me. b:chuckle

    My charm is working fine as well.

    If the mob (or multiple mobs) attack you very quickly, sometimes the charm doesn't have "time" to respond. This usually happens when they hit you really hard.

    Also, if your charm recently triggered, there's a 10 second cooldown. Krixxix got me today when I tried to solo him - charm ticked once, he killed me on cooldown. I never had that problem with any other bosses, but then they weren't 10 levels above me either XD You just gotta watch out for the hard hitters.

    1. My charm is on
    2. There was no cool down as the charm never kicked off
    3. I was preoccuipied trying to save my entire squad from dying
    4. The purpose of the HP charm is to kick in when you HP is below 50%.

    WHEN A BOSS HITS YOU TWICE TO TAKE YOUR HP FROM 50% TO 30% AND THE CHARM DOESN'T ACTIVATE THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE CHARM!

    I have never had this issue before with an HP charm. It has just starting occuring since last Tuesday.

    If you were pre-occupied, are you sure it wasn't on CD? Even if you are sure it wasn't you have to take into account the fact that lagg and dropped packets probably do play a part in something like this.

    People listen to this guy, he knows what he's talking about.. He's not a newbie or so.. You all talk like he is just a newbie and he doesn't know how charm works..

    Now I've read this, maybe I had the same problem with my charm on my BM alt today... I used many HP potions at an fb19 boss, saw my HP going down to around 30%, no charm activation and I didnt see my charm cooling down.. I was waiting for it to activate and after a hit it did thankfully...

    I know that my charm didn't kick off because when I saw the message saying HP is low. I checked my charm and it was not in cool down. I tried to activate my pot and I was dead.

    Charms also don't always tick immediately, there is a delay. If you are just above 50%, and get dropped below to 30%, it is possible for the delay to kill you.
