Not fixed in 5.6. The problem returned: neither on speed x3 nor x4 the spell works correctly. HG just destroys 3x5 block.
Looks half-fixed in 5.6.1: at speed x3 gems are destroyed correctly, but at speed x4 only a block 3x5 is destroyed, not a cross.
Well, this day has come. Haunted Guardian could be useful in the current world event (Ruby Light) if her spell was working correctly. @Devs: do you treat it as a minor bug of a troop never used by anyone?
@Nullings there is no QA in GoW development. Uber doom skulls will be buggy just any other newly released content.
Will be nice to see this troop’s bug fixed in 5.7.
Version 6.0. The bug was not fixed, still reproducible at speed x4.
Tested this last night on PC and on android this morning.
PC works properly.
On android it sometimes not explodes the full pattern, looks like it is blocked by skulls.
Given this pattern, T is the targeted gem, and S is a skull on that position,
OOOOO
OOOOO
OOTOO
OSOOO
OOOOO
Then the exploded pattern sometimes looks like this:
OXXXO
OXXXX
OXXXX X in the center was T
OXXXX first X was the skull on this line
OXXXO
Version 6.1 - bug not fixed yet. The same 3x5 block is destroyed at speed x4.
Version 6.1.5 - bug not fixed yet. Sometimes the bug shows even at speed x3 (tested under speeds x3 and x4).
Version 6.2 – the bug was not fixed. Reproduces reliably at speed x4. Sometimes – at speed x3.
I believe that an update will be issued soon, just reminding about a bug. It’s either about wording or about spell working.
Hey @Nullings
This is something we have been chasing up, I’ll poke the team again and see if there is any further update on this issue.
Not fixed in the version 6.3. Still the same 3x5 block destroyed at speed x4.
Unbelievable!
Not fixed in the version 6.4.
Do we just need to forget about old useless bugged troops?
Not stable in the version 6.5.
Looks like a cross exploded, when I select a gem close to the border (1st or 2nd line from any border). If I select some central gem, just a block 3x5 is destroyed.
Not stable in the version 6.6.
Sometimes it explodes a cross, some other times - a block 3x5 is destroyed. I could not see any pattern why or when the spell works this or that way.
Not stable in the version 6.7.
Nothing changed from the previous version really. Looks like not an easy bug to fix.
Taking another look at this, thanks for reviving the thread.
This thread is actually pretty useful.
You get a good overview when updates came out.
