M&K projectile random fire direction

Wicked Bug Reporting

i love this game, had it since day 1 early access release and have left t alone for a while so to keep it fresh when 1.0 releases. Anyway, i couldn’t see much in the forum about this… i have always played with joypad but recently picked poe2 back up and wanted to see what it was like playing with m&k. I liked it so i came back to nrftw and tried it.

Now, i know the game is designed for controller but that has a couple of flaws in it but i really liked m&k movement and combat in nrftw, i actually prefer not having auto target selected as combat with m&k feels much better except for runes that fire projectiles. If auto target is not selected the rune does not fire towards the mouse pointer. eg..

lord of the muck wand: rune 1 plague dart just fires randomly in a rough sort of diection where the character is facing (sometimes not even that)

yet rune 2 plague smite drops exactly where you want it.

Having watched the recent wicked inside showcase and how the lighting feature of dragoon works - i think this problem needs addressin and have the projectiles aim exactly where the mouse is pointing.

thanks

Hey Antoneeeee, this seems like a bug. Could you possible clip or screenshot this happening for you?

https://youtu.be/RMcV5J0463s i’ve done my best to record (not too tech savvy lol) as you can see the wand does not shoot in the direction of the cursor half the time

if i’m doing something completely stupid or missing something i am open to criticism :smiley:

Yeah that does seem a bit off, I will forward this so Moon can look into it.

Thanks for reporting Atoneeeee!
