awesome skill

Sure can't wait for the desync on this one.
Any chance of you adding skills that aren't desync magnets?

I sincerly hope that is not your "solution" to the massive desync problems in the game...
CBA to list all the possible solutions that still prevent cheating (which you guys get so bananas about) again, but this is the biggest problem the game has right now.

+100000

since desync kill my hardcore char i dont play hardcore again.
I hate it so much when my standart char dies because of desync. And the desync problem increase.

5 month ago i have one or two desync in 5 hours. Now i have one or two in 30 min. And only 4 of my 29 death are NOT desync initiated.

so i play only one or two days the week not like month ago 4 or 5 hours per day. I cant live with desync. Also when many people say its not a problem you can change your play style.

I want to know what the hell you people are doing that makes this such a problem for you. I've played bow, caster, and melee many times. While it does affect melee more so than the others, I've only actually died to it TWICE SINCE CLOSED BETA. Do you have crappy computers with crappy internet while trying to run past half the mobs in a zone?

Don't get me wrong, I desync some too but it is no where near as prevalent or as dangerous as people on the forums make it out to be. I can happily use any skill combination and not go "Desync skill, can't use"

This skill won't desync you. You place a mine at X,Y coordinates. When you do w/e you want and then activate the mine, the game knows EXACTLY where to put you. Desync is when it doesn't know where you are so it puts you where it believes you should be. When using this skill, it will 100% know where you should be.

This is the new must have skill of HC league

A dev just posted before it resyncs you

Anyway, if you've ever used traps or mines before - they always appear at the server's location, regardless of where the player is, so you can't suddenly desync anyway

I use leap slam in catacombs or solaris temple and suddenly i die and dont see the mobs who kill me. Since i am 84 and have verry good equip, thats no problem. But now i play a bow ranger with high evade and not so much life, i run verry fast and suddenly i died and saw the mobs i run away. If i have enough life or awesome equip desync is no problem. But then i dont like to play because there is no risk and so no fun for me.
Thats i wrote about the playstyle. With my marauder i can do all bosses and maps up to 73 but i have no fun to do so, because i can faceroll and play. thats no playstyle for me.

AND i think desyn isnt basically a problem of internet connection or pc power. my experience is its a problem of the skill you use.

Looks very good!

It's been a while. Does it work if I put the Trap support on the Mine?

Don't forget to take into consideration location. I for example live in Australia, and the lowest ping I can have is 80-90 (To singapore gateway). I desync very little when on a nearby gateway, and I play a Flicker Multi Build now so I can say I'm playing one of the most desyncable classes. But if I go play with anyone from the US, or Europe. I get 330/430 ping respectively. Making it literally impossible for me to play Flicker Build, that's my issue, so I play non-flicker when playing with US/Eur mates. But even just running around on a different build with 330/430 ping can easily cause desync, it's just mobs and my character placement are so out of sync at all times it just doesn't work.

So what are the pings you play with? (can be viewed by pressing F1 in-game). I'm assuming it's between 20-100? I'm not trying to target you or anything, I'm just saying the reason you may not see desync is because of your location. If you're in the US/Eur, change your Gateway to Australia, and play a FlickerStrike build then tell me Desync does not occur :D
