Poor Wetpolecat

[Lobevaser]

Note: this is not a bug report. kinda funny

Good ole Wetpolecat was exploring Ragnarok when he went to the " Chavez Battlefrigate " , He was playing all day and did a " noob" mistake , He warped to the nav itself and did not free warp it .

AAAAAAGGGGGGG Lift's Tail and start to spray the mobs . aaaaaggggggg ........ dang noob he thougt .

awwww crap shields going down fast .... unlock's target ..... free warp .... whew i am still alive .

I stopped 100km away . whew shields going up ... then WHAM WHAM WHAM ...... WTF !!!!!! Poor Wetpolecat is dead .

GGGGGRRRRRR . said a few choice words in guild chat then towed , loged off for the night .

Has this happen to anyone else ? Not the noob mistake but getting pounded after you warp off and stop soon after you warp .

[GenghisBob]

Yes, all the time. I thought it was a new "feature". If you don't stop, you still get hit very far away but don't take much/any damage if you are still in warp. I don't think there is 'far enough away' to stop before the ammo hits. :-)

Any missiles / projectiles follow you into warp and catch up when you come out of warp.
Been like that since "Live" lol.

[Zackman [LDEV]]

Hmm....nothing changed there afaik....sure it wasnt like that in beta?

[Darkdronen]

Uh, i did have some experience with this, and yeah if you stop warp and those missles hit you, you will get damage. Funny thing is, i was doing a tour and i warped when the missles were coming towards the noobies and they hit the noobs 1 sec before stopping and they didn't kill anyone. P.S. don't do what i did to see if its true

[Kyp [LDEV]]

damage is calculated before you even see the visual, the damage is inevitable. :-)

[Stanig[IS]]

no escape
no where to run
no where to hide

As in RL...isn't it always?

[Ego]

If you warp for long enough the missiles and projectile bullets hit you and no damage, if you stop before they catch up and hit you, they go 'BOOM'

[Kyp [LDEV]]

Correction, there is damage, you've just failed to notice it because its been applied and you've already regenerated it. The code doesn't allow for 'escape' as it were. This is just your eyes tricking you.

[Darkdronen]

so are you saying that its possible for someone to die while warping? such as a lvl 1 noob.

[Kyp [LDEV]]

Yes if the mob had already fired before you went to warp and it exceeded your shield+hull value. Hell it would be theoretically possible to cross the galaxy and still die if you could do it quick enough.

[FishJD]

It's always happened like that for as long as I can remember since before sunset, whether the visual hits me before/during or after warp, it has always hit as has the damage

[TDZGamer]

Damage even follow you through the wormhole (except if you are Morgan Freeman of course).

[jrichards]

It is interesting to see if the same damage occurs when in warp. I know Kyp is saying that it will but I have never been killed in warp even when hit by much higher level mobs (which would have killed me if I was not in warp). Be interesting to test it out to see if you can escape the damage as long as you don't drop out of warp.
