[Not a bug] Issue with cascading matches on stun

In both PvP and PvE, there is an issue where stunned enemies are gaining mana off my cascading matches instead of me.

I’ve been noticing this issue on occasion for a while now, but it is much more problematic in these XII events. Especially with the current green dungeon when I need dispel magic to survive, but my cascading green matches keep refilling the enemy spells.

I don’t know if this is setup specific or not, but I’m on PS4 playing as a Necromancer with a skull damage-focused spells + dispel magic.

Are you able to grab a video of this happening?

Or do you remember who you were against when you noticed this (players or NPC enemies), so we can check their abilities?

In the meantime, opponent abilities are still active while being stunned - they just cannot make matches or cast spells.

So if they have an ability that generates Gems on their turn, which trigger matches (and a cascade) it can look like it has gone back to the players turn, and as though those cascading matches are the players - when they are the enemies and the enemy gains mana from their matches.

But yeah, a video would be helpful to confirm.

If everyone gets the same (random) NPC enemies in the same order, I remember it happening with one of the enemies during the second round if that helps at all. I don’t remember which enemy, though. :sweat_smile: I should have written it down or something.

I tried to figure out the video thing once on PS4, but I aborted the effort when I saw it required youtube.

OK update. This one’s gotta be my fault. After looking through the enemy list and trying to replay what happened in my mind, I think this happened with Andromene’s Barb. I bet I used my green bow event loadout that round on accident instead of the green twinblade one I used last night (danger of having more than one daily event loadout). So that enemy must have removed the 3 skulls triggered by bonus poison damage and then caused a big cascade, helped along further by some mythic swamp soaked stuff on that particular loadout. :woman_facepalming:
