there seems to be this glitch (or maybe its a ""tech"" in the same way telecasting is) that happens when you cast dark sight and then immediately another skill. It's even doable via in game macro with high repeatability, such as dark sight -> savage blow and it allows you to attack while in dark sight. again, I don't know if this is intended or just left as an unintended tech. The implications of this are nearly useless or have small use cases, although I haven't used them other than brief testing. Such implications I've briefly came up with are darksighted assaulter to ""teleport"" in safety and without a knockback (if you teleport right on top of another enemy), dark sight savage blow to have an almost boomerang step type physical damage invincibility set up. this probably also applied to NL but i dont like NLs and dont have one to test it on, also shadowers have assassinate so its actually useful for charging. otherwise, i think this is utterly trivial as it requires to escape the dark sight condition before recasting. I would just like to know if allowed to continue using this without it being deemed as bug abuse. I found out about it because you can do basic attacks while in dark sight and if you hold the button it spams the animation of exiting dark sight which sounds cool. If this is a bug and requires fixing, would it cause those latency issues that were seen when telecasting was "fixed"? because this could be an indirect nerf to shadower's assassinate. tl;dr: using skills in dark sight allowed? (without hacking/game manipulation)
There really isn't a way to fix this because in order for you to enter dark sight, there is a period of time where the client needs to communicate with the server to apply the dark sight buff to your character. I wish it would just instantly happen on the client, but i'm sure there is a reason it's the way it is. I've played lots of shadower and I can tell you that this has little to no applicable uses.
i put it in the trivial tag for a reason irregardless, its faster to do darksight>bstep>assasinate as a macro than darksight>assassinate>bstep because like you said, it doesnt happen instantly on the client so you have that time in between where youre not allowed to assassinate filled up with a boomerang step. I made this thread to inform the staff of this, because I can see it's importance in little small optimizations. I would like to use this more and test if its actually faster, but i just want a small affirmation that I can because the skill dark sight says you cant attack during it
