NEW LOD MAP BUGGED

[HolySantaClaus]

Hey ENT staff,
this new LOD map introduced today (DotA v6.84b LoD.w3x) is bugged like nothing that ive seen before....
Please host the old version (DotA v6.83j LoD.w3x) again. As i could see, there are already 2 draw games because of some internal glitch detector failure.
This map seems to be unplayable most of the time.
Wait for another version, with less bugs pls, before hosting 6.84 again.
Btw im just wondering, dont u have checked this map before?
(I hope this is the right place for posting this)

Yea this is a disaster. Just had a game crash within first 2 minutes. Had to force close wc3.

The patch b has bugs. We will be updating to patch c soon: https://entgaming.net/forum/viewtopic.p ... 25#p272525

The followings are some glitches that I found watching replays on the currently hosted lod map dota lod v6.84c.

1. Supernova makes an ally hero invulnerable.

2. Damage reduction on some trigger heals such as dispersion, backtrack and bristle back do not work properly. i.e. It rather heals instead of reducing damage. It probably happens when they are picked as the fifth skill.

3. Active skills disappear when a hero dies in bear form.

4. Octarine orb passive heal works for reflection damage such as dispersion and return.

5. If you repick after buying items, items will be disappeared.

6. Holy persuasion has no cap whatsoever on the number of creeps you can convert from even level 1.

@zehk

Thx for the info. We are planning to revert to a more stable version.

U may report the glitches to the official lod forum if you want to guve feedback tonthe mapmakers.

map has been updated to 684d with bug fixes. hopefully this will work well.

The hosted map has been updated and the followings are some glitches I observed.

1. You cannot level perm invis under -sp unlike other passives.

2. Formless ult disappears when u obtain ur own ultimate. For example, assume you have finger of death as the first ult. If you obtain finger of death from an ally or a foe, you will lose formless ult forever.

3. You cannot chop down trees with battle fury.

4. Root still entangles the enemies after the eye of forest is chopped down.

5. You cannot upgrade relocate with scepter.

6. You can still life steal from return and dispersion with octarine core although they are clearly passives.

7. Octarine core's cooldown reduction works better than it is supposed to for some skills.

I did not have a chance to check some of the prelisted glitches on the new version of lod map.

Octarine core's cooldown reduction works better than it is supposed to for some skills.

@zehk

Can you elaborate on this and also save a replay if you see a rare bug. We are sending all glitch reports to the map maker. Thanks for your help.

[zehk]

Everything was tested except the 2nd and 4th glitches. The 2nd glitch is hard to be tested since I need someone to test it with but I got no bud who plays dota. The 4th glitch does not have to be tested red(rtk) has reported plitt on that matter.

@zehk

Can you please talk more about the octarine core glitch.

I just found this thread and I'd like to add a few bugs to the list:

1.) When using Spawn Spiderlings and Ball lightning, casting spawn spiderlings will cast ball lightning instead (both manual click and hotkey)

2.) Return doesn't always return dmg (was using slardar, only every 4th or 5th attack returned dmg, might have different effect vs hero and vs creeps)

3.) Rocket flare doesn't multicast, red letters still show though(was using sylla as base hero)

4.) Nature's Attendant and Exorcism will cast at the same time if picked together no matter which one u press.

@blub save the replays when this happens. Mapmaker needs them.

[BluB]

Some of these games are a ways back or on different accounts though but i can list my build and base hero.

1.) Thrall- Fireblast, Lucent Beam, Frostbite, Spawn Spiderlings, Multicast, Ball Light

2.) Slardar- Return, Dragon Blood, Dispersion, Bristleback, BT, Drums

3.)Syllabear- Rocketflare, Stifling Dagger, AM Blink, Meepo Net, MC, Wrath

4.) Happened to me about 3 times so its def a bug

2 More:

5.) Agha Relocate doesn't work: https://entgaming.net/findstats.php?id=6504515

6.) Ally's blink just disappeared: https://entgaming.net/findstats.php?id=6504581
