I seem to be getting this too.
Also, something else just started. I'm not sure it's because of the skill, but I've been lagging really hard today and whenever I try to use it from range now, I lag out and get a beeping noise every time I click to use it while I'm lagged out. |

Same problem, seem only to happen with lightning strike. Too bad I just started a char based on that skill.

I'd like to refer my post with my previous post here:
http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/31155/page/1/#p450473 Just played again on Ship Graveyard map using a combination of and in this order: 1. Bear Trap 2. Fire Trap 3. Lightening Strike 4. Flicker Strike I played for a good 5-10 minutes without crash. Then a Fire Trap and Lightening Strike went off simultaneously whilst clustered in a group of monsters and the Client crashed. I'm not sure but the Fire Trap and Lightening Strike only seem to crash client when in a small tight group?? Last edited by Mr_Milly#1289 on May 14, 2012, 2:16:04 PM

Exactly the same problem here.
PackCheck checked three times. Beta...You're mine, now.

From looking over the client crash dumps we've received from those experiencing it, I've just fixed this issue. It occurs when lightning strike is used over ground fire, without specifically targeting the melee attack on a particular enemy - it checks to see if something's there to be hit anyway, finds the ground fire, and tries to hit it. This causes a crash because it can't actually damage the ground fire.
Now it will correctly fail to find a target unless there's something there it can actually apply damage to. It's possible that there might be other rare objects in the game world that met the same criteria as ground fire in terms of Lightning Strike trying to hit them but not actually able to take the damage, these should also be caught as well, if they exist. In the meantime, until the fix is deployed, you guys can avoid it by not using Lightning Strike over ground fire, or making sure you actually target monsters with the attack if you do use it over fire. | |
ok, thanks.
