Trigore mechanics; possibly bugged

[SparkyElf-2852]

@Wingnut-1352

• When watching vids from a year ago, Trigore would trigger backlash when an ally would attack and take damage. Hes no longer doing that.
• Trigore is not triggering backlash from direct attacks from enemies. In one match with trash, an adjacent character was attacked 6 times and didn’t once proc.

Eh? I haven’t observed anything like it.

Trigore’s Backlash triggers when an adjacent ally takes damage from an enemy. Are you sure it’s what’s been happening during those attacks?

@Wingnut-1352

When doing bounties, I got the relic “If an enemy is summoned, destroy it”, and it didn’t trigger either. I am farming the Cow King, he summoned 5 enemies at different times, and not a single one was destroyed.

That’s another old misconception, see, for example: Mercenaries: Hunting Party - #2 by SparkyElf-2852, also Mercenaries , unable to use Gift of N'Zoth ability - #2 by SparkyElf-2852, Assassinate (Mad Bomber) - #2 by SparkyElf-2852.

@Wingnut-1352

Has Trigore been shadow nerfed?

Yes, but that’s another matter and not related to any of your questions.

@Wingnut-1352

These issues make him/her much more circumstantial and weak.

I beg to differ, Trigore is still one of the strongest mercs in the game (don’t play PvP anymore and don’t care about the ‘meta’ there).

PS This topic belongs in the ‘Bug Report’ forum, I’d say.
