Two Gas Grenade interactions bugged.

Gas Grenade does not interact correctly with other Mercenary skills.

1. If a Gas Grenade is detonated by Explosive Shot, it does not shotgun. Basically you deal no damage, because instead of getting the effect damage from multiple projectiles or multiple shoots, it seems to only count towards 1 detonation.

2. Burning ground from Oil Grenades don't detonate Gas Clouds. Just shoot an Oil Grenade and put it on fire with like Explosive Shot, then any Gas Clouds that are shot inside don't detonate. If you think it works, it's probably because the Gas Grenade is detonating because the enemy is ignited.


I never posted in the forum, but after seeing they're nerfing Gas Grenades, when it is clearly bugged in many ways that affect negatively players, i was pissed.

GGG if nerfing fun is your priority in the EA and not fixing real bugs, i may actually not have interest in playing.

Edit (Some more info, and that i'm not mad that my build was nerfed):
I'm not mad because my build was nerfed. I'm bad that the clear interactions that should work with that skill just don't work, and seems that when they were balancing this skill they overturned because the in the tests the bugs make the skill underperform, but now that people found how to actually make the skill work GGG did not address the real problems and just nerfed.

I found end of day two, why my damage was sometimes really bad and another really good, was because of this bugs. And then i found if i used Oil Grenade to ignite the enemy the Gas Grenade actually shotguns, something that appears to be intended, looking to any other grenade skills in the game.

I noticed it after i finished act 3, and started minmaxing my build and testing, indeed gas grenade wont shotgun if something detonates it other than ignite, i closed the game and i'm so disappointed now i wonder if my other idea scattershot +
explo grenade will shotgun or not. I think the game is great, and this is the only disappointing thing i met in the game so i just hope they fix it.

A counterargument to this: "GGG if nerfing fun is your priority in the EA and not fixing real bugs."

When my gas grenade were detonated by ignite, and the boss suddenly lost 30% hp, i didn't really have fun and felt like i didn't achieved the boss kill but my busted skill. I understand how you feel, i just wanted to share my opinion on this. I would have gladly have a nerfed gas grenade with working shotgunning.

Just adding to this post here - I also noticed this issue.

I think my question is which behavior is correct? Shotgunning explosions or not? Because shotgun from ignite feels insanely OP compared to when you don't get it.

2. Burning ground from Oil Grenades don't detonate Gas Clouds

I confirm it still doesn't work...

On the flip side, gas grenade is instantly ignited from patches of burning ground, making it almost useless on those maps. I actually had to change from my gas grenade build because of this and wasn't even able to play maps with burning ground. The armor break and armor break explosion basically doesn't happen on those maps because of this.

If they are nerfing gas grenades that's seriously screwed up. I quit d4 when season 1 started because of misguided nerfs that ruined my non-meta build

Is this fixed?
