About Support Skill - Heal, is it a bug or just the game mechanics?

    Here's a thing I noticed when casting Heal at certain points:
    • When you tap heal on party member support tab after casting finale with an interrupted ender (by not enough MP) you heal yourself instead of the said member.
    • When you have tapped the party member support tab but you move before pressing the heal, you heal yourself and not the said party member.
    I have a solution for the first point, but it is just annoying to use...
    Oh and another thing... I may have been a bit generalizing with the above points but the said party member is actually a defender mercenary.
    So what do you guys think?
    EDIT: if it matter to you guys... I was doing Cerberus ulti when this happened. Cerberus seemed a bit buggy to my merc...(i.e. merc teleporting back to me is one thing)

    I didn't know about the interrupted combo. As for the second, I find its a lot useful especially when all my shortcuts have been occupied with auras, combos, buffs, charge, etc. I don't have enough to put Heals and Recoveries. Switching shortcut list can be a hassle, atleast imo.
    I recommend to cast Heal to a party member when your at a safe zone.

    Thanks for the reply XD
    About the interrupted combo what I meant is the usual: 1st skill > 2nd skill smite > finale smite. Thus combo is interrupted by finale smite. While my case is similar but since I use finale, I can't use it as an ender :p. Just in case you mean this... otherwise nvm my reply :cool:

    Wow what build are you using to use so many shortcuts?:eek: (nvm... its out of context anyways)

    Actually, It can't be helped because the urgency called for it. Lets say my defender merc is at 5% HP right after I finish my finale. I could have saved it if I were to use heal directly. But because of lack of MP, I can only use heal once after a single finale combo. So if I heal myself because of this bug(?), then I need to MP charge at least once before I can try to heal merc again (3 sec or little bit less). By then my merc would have died and aggro will turn to me.:(

    Btw I use this build:

    Its alright, I use a pure Support build, so most of my shortcuts are pretty much auras from support skill, dance opener from dancer plus elegant and nature's wonder, plus the standard mage necessities MPCharge>Maxi, and most importantly Backstep.

    That being the case, you can opt to invest in lvl10 First Aid or Enhanced Bless. 2x First Aids and 1 Heal can immediately revive your fallen teammates. While Enhanced Bless is a good regen skill, especially if your a mage and full INT.

    I'm not really sure if its a bug, since Asobimo has never addressed it, probably it hasn't been an interest to them at all.

    That make sense XD. I would opt to give enhanced bless a try if I have a spare character.

    And this may be out of topic, but did you guys receive compensation too? just a few moments ago I received compensation due to bug but it never mention which bug. Maybe I read too much into it haha XD.

    did you target the merc before or after finishing the combo? because even if the last skill is not executed, it will redirect to your initial target.
    if you locked a target once, it will stay locked until you target-lock a new target. simply selecting a target without doing anything will not lock it, so you go back to your previous target. moving will cancel the selection, so you have to re-select the new target after moving.

    If I'm not mistaken, I did it during combo (or casting finale) because most of the time the merc got low hp while I was casting finale combo. But I am not sure which exact point in the combo did I tap on support tab whether it be during finale or during the interruption.

    Uh does this have something to do with system settings? Cuz I did tweak some settings for more comfortable play...

    not sure if you can adjust that. i only know that you can set the skill menu to stay open or auto-close. then there is camera-lock on target or free view, but i don't think you can alter the targeting mechanic.
