[Unconfirmed] Ice block exploit

[Skaarlaw]

Well I think I may of found a possible exploit with Ice block, it may take some timing but some how I managed to take damage but then be able to pop iceblock and have full health as I did at the start

I'll try reproducing this by:

Get one shotted by a huge boss, e.g. Drek'thar in AV (where I found)
Pop iceblock just after he hits me, before I actually die
Full hp

As I said I don't know whether this is confirmed, or just an abuse of a laggy AV, either way it may benefit some people.

Please reply with confirms, i'll continue to test and give updates as I go.

if it works rep++

One time I jumped for the Aldor rise and hit ice block when i hit the ground but I still died while in ice block

[Skaarlaw]

Well from what Tank said, there's definately some kind of bug with Iceblock

[Lone Defiler]

well it depends on when you did it --- thats not a bug as far as i know --- but just keep testing.

you probably got healed by a healer that has target of target on... probably saw you were gonna get pawnt and saved you

Congrats, you have discovered lag!


yeah that happens all the time, says you take the damage but really you don't because of lag. Not an exploit.

[Skaarlaw]

Well nothing new yet, and I have SCT so I see what happens

I took the damage (1 hit was way more than my hp, undergeared) and I still survived after I popped Ice block to my amazement

[coolemu]

Again, thats just lag. nothing special.
