Bug blackjack stunning too often

After playing a few ninjas today, it seems to be clear that there may be a bug with blackjack. I was already under the impression it was stunning more often than usual when I was stunned on 5 consecutive hits against Delfofthebla

Yeaaa something seems a bit off with it right now. I feel as though it's triggering too often in some fights, but working as intended in others. It just seems really wonky.

Basically, you either get 0 stuns per fight, or somewhere between 2 and 6. It feels as though it "chains" off each proc, causing additional stuns to occur.

Update:

In a time frame of only a couple of minutes, this happened twice.

EDIT: ( I derped on the last screenshot, but I had another one that was the exact same scenario.)

Basically, I was stunned once, and before that stun had even ended, I was stunned again. The third stun would follow near the end of the second.

I believe this is the same issue as the Lottery picking the same person over and over. I think the random seed isn't doing it's job properly.

These are only two samples, but I assure you, it is almost always this way. Blackjack doesn't proc often, but when it does, it procs over and over and over again.

Kainzo , thoughts?

The chances are based on left-click, not damage. Therefore your chances are better to proc the stun depending on how often you click the mouse.

Are you sure? Based on the testing I have done, this does not appear to be the case. If it -is- based on clicks in any way, I would put my money that it is based on how often you are hit, not how often the player is clicking.


My main issue here is that it doesn't proc often at all (I'd say it feels like a 7.5% chance). However, when it does proc, it almost always procs more than once. It's very seldom that it procs a single time and then stops.

I can add on to this from my experience playing ninja. I don't often stun people, but when I do, they start getting stunned over and over again.

Every time you were stunned i was able to spam my mouse because you were not moving, that is most likely the reason for the additional stuns.
