Description

This has changed since 4.21, AOE attacks are not being registered. Paulo S took a look and determined that this is an engine bug:

Happens with any radius based attack. What I found is that any Sphere traces where Start and End locations are the same are not triggering any hits. If this was not intended, it's probably a 4.22 bug.

  5. In the Skills slot, purchase Combust
  6. Leave the Inventory menu and use Combust when enemies are next to the player

Results: The Area of Effect skill does not deal damage to the enemies. Hits are not being registered

Expected Results: Hits are registered and enemies take damage
