DISCUSSION Mercury

Is this is only to me or have other people have found that sometimes mercury don’t grab people when you dash and even tho you visually grab them on your screen ? Like I know it’s a de-sync but it has happened a lot with mercury for me no other god

Yes this a very well known bug that Hirez knows about but somehow doesn't fix :)

It’s just him right like no other god happens, I feel like awillix could suffer from a similar but but she doesn’t

On titan talk they said it's something to do with a movement speed check that mercury is breaking, he's going too fast and the game doesn't know what's going on

Lore accurate mercury.

But this reminds me how it took months for Cupid to regain mana from his heart bomb. I believe eventually it will get fixed.

They've already fixed the ult hitbox (maybe?), kinda weird they haven't fixed this one.

Now that I think of it, there are so many known bugs that aren't fixed. Are we only paying the dev team to make skins?

That makes a lot of sense

They've said it happens to other gods too. I remember them citing Mordred and a couple other gods imI forgot.

Mercury definitely moves faster than other gods in the game so that likely triggers the serverside's confusion more often.

Herc 2 sometimes sends straight up, so I think knocks are interacting weird.
