Prototypemind Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 What level are you? Do you have all the talents properly set in your tree? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkedius Posted January 30, 2014 Author Share Posted January 30, 2014 Im 55 and yes, i don't know if is a bug or what . I have it when i pop out of stealth i get the 3 stacks then proceed to do chain lightning and when the cast ends no buff and the stack of course falls since i guess the game thinks that is applied. i know is weird and i wish i could have more info on it .

Guiken Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 you have to build 3 stacks of harnessed darkness with wither/shock and then channel your force lightning to get your 4 stacks of dark protection. If you're saying you got 3 stacks of HD and are still not getting it I would suggest a bug report and/or video of the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aelanis Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Also make sure you turn combat logging on and can find an instance of it in your logs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkedius Posted February 1, 2014 Author Share Posted February 1, 2014 how i do that ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aelanis Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Once you're in game, go to Options -> Combat Logging -> Enable Combat Logging. You can then use a parser like TORParse or Parsec or MOX in order to look at how much damage you're taking, and your shield and defense chances.

OwenABC Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 I've noticed this too lately, it feels like a ~50% chance that dark protection will trigger with full harnessed darkness stacks. I am very surprised I havent seen more threads on this subject. I have not tried since the patch so maybe they stealth fixed it /fingersCrossed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be possible that a specific series of events causes this to happen, and it would be much easier for BW to fix the problem if they already knew exactly what caused it.

Omophorus Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 They fixed the issue where stacks wouldn't apply if the tick was resisted, but if you do not deal damage with FL, you won't apply stacks of DP. For example, during the Past/Future phases of Calphy, once he's been pushed to 30% and is "stunned" and shielded, you can no longer use FL to rebuild stacks prior to leaving (unless there's a crystal handy in the 2nd round) because your FL won't damage the target. If you're in a situation where you are able to deal damage and still not getting stacks, it is likely a bug, and logging might help illuminate what's happening.

tXHereticXt Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Anyone having problem with this? i build the 3 stacks but when i do force lightning is not being apply. anyone know about this. I've found that if you spam Shock/Project and Wither/SlowTime. too much, lose the graphic - it renders Force Lightning/Telekinetic Throw ineffective. FL/TKT will still deal crit damage but it wont apply the self buff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already don't like Dark Protection, but that puts the icing on the cake. My only issue with it is, that when I use Force Lightning, I have to fully channel it to get all 4 stacks if I started from 0 stacks... that's the only qualm I have against the ability... I want my self heals with better armor rating back and I want it NAO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you didn't get your full FL off with self-heals, you didn't get the max benefit out of that, so how do you see this as being any different? We're more stable than before, and it seems the only QoL improvement that really may need to happen is a slight increase in up time to make things a little more friendly for all levels of players.

Completely agree. Don't get me wrong you can still manage with its current setting but that window is very tight. Stupid Oricon Champions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
