General/Other - Sorcerer Sorcerer spell circle bug?

[Phosferrax]

I'm sure a lot of the Quan players are aware, but those of us who don't play him may not be aware.

Sorcerer Quan has the ability to place spell circles on the stage, and this is pertaining to the armour spell in particular. The circle allows one hit of armour every 3-4 seconds, but if Quan fully exits the circle and then re-enters it, the cooldown is reset and he is granted the hit of armour again straight away. The cooldown only has effect when Quan stays with in the circle.

Is this by design or an oversight? It's hard enough to deal with this special move as it is, and in the corner it is a nightmare dealing with armoured 50/50's. This effectively allows Quan to bypass the cooldown which is there for balance purposes.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

If this is known it's only a matter of the correct setup

Yes, any time a Quan loses the hit but time he can just step out and back in again.

@Under_The_Mayo already found this out. I suggest following his youtube channel.

He's not claiming he found a bug... he's asking if it's actually a bug or not.

Yeah, the best way to use this is to hover infront of the portal incase you get hit. You will fall out. Here´s a video showing how it works.

But is it intentional is what I'm asking.

You would have to ask someone at NRS.

i would say yes since he has to go out and go back in releasing block for some frames and since back dash and forward dashes have a recorvery ,I dont think its a game breaker its still 1 hit of armor though.
