Darktide - Pox Burster - Kinetic Flayer

Issue Type (Required):

Enemy Mechanics

Issue Description (Required):

Kinetic Flayer does not seem to work against Pox Bursters. Using Inferno or Electrokinetic Force Staff, I have never activated Kinetic Flayer against Pox Bursters.

Steps to Reproduce (Required):

Wait the required 12 seconds, wait for a pox burster (don’t worry there will be one) hit it several times with your Electrokinetic or Inferno staff. Activation never seems to occur. I don’t hear a crack even though it is the only special I am focusing on.

[PC] Do You Use Mods? (Optional):

No, I don’t use mods

Reproduction Rate (Required):

Constant (100%)

Platform (Required):

PC - Steam

It’s intended, it shouldn’t and it is good.

I’d rather them not explode for 1 tick of Soulblaze when they’re close to my teammates LOL

Yeah they made this change at community request. I’d much rather have it this way then live in fear of eating a poxburster whenever the psyker is shooting fire.

You know that flame from an Inferno staff is good as push with your melee right?

Only the light attack though right?

Before it was changed, even that could detonate Bursters if Flayer was ready as any attack would proc Flayer. Flayer not proccing on Bursters is a very good thing.

yeah, if it doesn’t immediately explode the burster when KF is avaliable and the flame touches it. Dunno why you want this back.
