Skitarii Servoskull Laspistol DoT Not Triggering On-Kill Effects

Issue Type (Required):

Player Mechanics

Issue Description (Required):

If an enemy dies by the flame DoT applied by your Serverskull’s Laspistol, it will not trigger on-kill effects such as:

  • Binary Ballistics Protocol
  • Power Overload

When in-game, the enemy will also not appear in the kill-feed.

Steps to Reproduce (Required):

  1. Load into the Meatgrinder & equip Artificer Serverskull
  2. Command it to attack an elite. Trying a few times until you get one where it dies by DoT instead of the hit itself.
  3. Observe buff-bar.

Reproduction Rate (Required):

Constant (100%)

Platform (Required):

PC - Steam

This is still an issue. It looks like the owner is simply not specified when the DoT is applied: Darktide-Source-Code/scripts/settings/buff/archetype_buff_templates/cryptic_buff_templates.lua at dee7681bb48874132983a67d2bfdbd8925f3e226 · Aussiemon/Darktide-Source-Code · GitHub

Compared to the Purgator skull DoT that does specify the owner: Darktide-Source-Code/scripts/extension_systems/behavior/nodes/actions/bt_shoot_flames_action.lua at dee7681bb48874132983a67d2bfdbd8925f3e226 · Aussiemon/Darktide-Source-Code · GitHub
