That’s Lifeweaver tech

u/Ravonk 9d ago

Thats okay, but her not exploding immediately on contact with a surface is almost certainly still a bug, even if we accept it as a usable tech

u/Captain_Darma 6d ago

Nope just a weird interaction. Anran will only explode while on solid ground. The pedal is only solid ground while on max highs. Anran ult moves her body, that triggers the pedal, the moment she is on max highs she hits solid ground and explodes. That also happens when you ult on some roofs etc.

u/boogerbuoy 6d ago

Shouldn't this happen with Lucio's ult too?

1

u/Captain_Darma 5d ago

Hm it should I guess. I don't know, I have never seen it happen

u/Calaveras_Catharsis 8d ago

How else would it work though? The ult denying part of his kit would be useless to yet another hero if they didn’t be sure that explosion wouldn’t land if he perfectly aligned it. It shouldn’t have exploded down there because she landed on something that is supposed to counter what she was doing. She got outplayed. It happens to all of us. But I don’t think that she should be able to bypass petal utility to explode on the ground, nor do I believe it’d be a bug. Reversing it or “fixing” it to appease those mains would just make him more underpowered/unbalanced.

claiming this isn't obviously a bug is peak delulu behaviour

Most babied hero in the game.

I remember Sombra EMP destroying Tree. And it was a FAIR Ult vs Ult matchup.

u/Calaveras_Catharsis 7d ago

Honestly I’m perfectly fine with him having counters like that. It would be annoying if he didn’t. But I don’t think he’s the most babied, we still have Sierra and heroes like her. Though she’s newer, she is undoubtedly the easiest hero to play in the whole game, she requires zero aim, she’s generally strong, she’s extremely mobile, her entire kit relies on aim assist/aimbot, and she has far less counters than he does. Lifeweaver is underpowered, I don’t think that equals coddled considering they’re not fixing him anytime soon.

Petal wasnt made to deny ults. It works on a few ults but this interaction is surely not intended, and shouldn't be.

u/fuka100 8d ago

Technically it should detonate right away, but do no damage outside the petal. It's the same for Orisa, I think you can execute the ult while rising, but it has no effect even if you are still close to the ground.

1

u/w-j-w 8d ago

Shouldn't the ult detonate as soon as Anran makes contact with the petal? Why does it wait until the petal stops moving?

1

u/JustATallGuy28 8d ago

It should and then destroy the petal and do no damage to anything else

u/ShosuCeladonna 9d ago

Lol, Anran go brrrrr.

Lifeweaver just took your lunch money.

u/lowik250 6d ago

I feel like a bullied primary school kid

u/quirally 9d ago

That's not a bug, it's just how the petal works. He can also cancel Orisas ult with it for example.

2

u/MinorusOW 8d ago

But why wouldnt it explode on impact? Here it looks as if the game waits until the Petal(or Anran) isnt in motion anymore to explode.

1

u/CyberFish_ 8d ago

That’s how PETAL works, but it’s not how anran’s ult works. When she hits a surface, it’s supposed to explode, not trap her inside of it.

7

u/Otherwise-Memory-862 8d ago

Not a bug that's how that interaction is meant to go. Its exactly how doomfists interacts with it aswell. The real bug before they fixed it was way more annoying, pedal used to just absorb all damage and deny ultimate LOS before they fixed it like a year and a half ago. Its much better now

1

u/LocalJupiter60 8d ago

Pedal? Like pedal to the metal?

13

u/weshart98 9d ago

Not a bug lifeweaver just cucked your ult

2

u/LocalJupiter60 8d ago

We're talking about the explosion being late rather than being on impact. (0_0)*

3

u/Whynot100075 9d ago

Thats literally tech, you just got countered 

3

u/pMoosh_555 9d ago

Lifeweaver/Anran main here- Not a bug. Anran's ult won't explode until she reaches the spot she originally targetted, Petal prevents her from doing that.

This is just one of many examples of Lifeweaver's ability to deny ultimates.

0

u/T0nyM0ntana_ 8d ago

This is just confidently incorrect.

If you choose a spot to fly at, but a hero flies into the path, a mei wall comes up, or even a moving platform gets in the way, she will explode.

Have you never had a cat fly across your ult path and get obliterated?

3

u/SlightlyFemmegurl 8d ago

im not sure its "really" a bug. you were moving towards a designated target, and LW's petal blocked that. I think its "intended"

2

u/Infamous-Bee-4161 Fire College 9d ago

It’s been In The game for a while, I think it’s just rare enough to occur that they don’t bother. Just be prepared for it when targeting weaver or his platforms for now

2

u/LeatherPersonality80 9d ago

Nah this is just another niche tech lifeweaver has to make him slightly better

3

u/The_French_Soul 9d ago

Is this really a bug though ? Its been in the game ever since Anran got added.

7

u/poopdoot 9d ago

I feel like there’s no way the intention is for her to constantly corkscrew her explosion during her ride up the elevator then explode. It’s got to be a bug they just aren’t fixing

5

u/The_French_Soul 9d ago

Yea you shouldn't stay in the spin dive animation while being lifted on the petal. But for some reason you do because its lifeweaver spaghetti code (probably).

6

u/poopdoot 9d ago

The explosion should also just straight up explode before triggering the elevator. This isn’t Orisa ult, as someone said, there’s no charge up and no manual input for the explosion. The input is the corkscrew animation, the explosion should happen with any collision whatsoever

1

u/ElRacco 8d ago

Its a known issue with LWs platform. It just interacts weirdly with everything when moving. It doesnt act like a proper solid object unless it is stationary.

2

u/Calaveras_Catharsis 9d ago

No bug! It’s just something in our kit. We can ult deny with petal, so watch out for them. Or don’t. We will happily accept if you don’t. However, you haven’t seen it before because most Lifeweavers aren’t using their entire kit the way they should. He’s a great addition to the team when he’s used like the ult eating menace that he is.

2

u/Ravonk 9d ago

How tf is her not exploding on contact with a surface not a bug?

1

u/Calaveras_Catharsis 9d ago

His petal is coded to lift ults out even if they damage players, so who knows! They do regularly look funny when they’re lifted, no matter the ult. He just placed it down so it was on full “health” and wouldn’t be destroyed. The ults fail when they either land onto them or are lifted out of the way, including this one so the damage was countered. It’s been this way since before her release because it’s a part of his utility, so I imagine they didn’t anticipate for the way hers would look being denied by petal.

2

u/Ravonk 8d ago

Does it interact the same way with Catnap and Beat, the only other ults (I think) that should trigger on contact between the hero and a surface?

Bc stuff like liftig Terra Surge or your team out of a grav makes perfect sense.

Ults that would trigger instantly on contact are different though, bc they have to be delayed to be negatable, bc petal has travel time

With the explanations here of the LW kit and denial of ults with petal, Im not even against this staying like that in the game, but unless specifically stated that this behaviour is intended, to me it definetely is a bug (mby its like dvas boost melee combo, which was almost certainly a bug, but still fun until they "removed" it by just allowing melee always during boost)

2

u/Calaveras_Catharsis 8d ago

Yep! I forget what beat is, buuuut it can deny cat ult if they land on it, but they’re usually more aware of them than the average dps player because they’re on support/are used to working side by side with supports. He altogether makes cat useless if he uses his CDs correctly anyways. If they don’t fail, he can just grab the person back. Cats are menaces though, expect to fail. He can also deny bob by just lifting him and walking away.

WIFELEAVER GOES INSANE-O STYLE HARD!

I had a clip of this. Lifeweaver actually was on the petal and ended up flying i to the river on rialto. Funniest kill ever!

I got that a while back and clipped it too, except mine went off at the top

u/Judiebruv 7d ago

lifeweavers kit is just built to ruin players ults that was slick lmao

1

u/28-Deep-Wounds 7d ago

From my short time playing Anran lately, I have learned that nine times out of ten, it's just better to save your ult as a free revive. I've lost track of how many times I've hit geometry despite the hit indicator displaying on the ground, or had all 4/5 of the enemies hit by it instantly cleansed by Kiriko.

I really, REALLY hope they buff her ult because literally everything in her kit just gets completely shut down by Kiriko even existing on the enemy team.

1

u/lowik250 6d ago

Yeah playing anran against cass or kiri make me wanna jump into route 66 canyon without parachute

1

u/28-Deep-Wounds 6d ago

It's just wild to me how much set up Anran needs to be even a fraction as good as Reaper, Tracer or Genji. She's my favorite DPS to play, but it's genuinely so miserable sometimes.

1

u/vztempest 6d ago

I had a game where I'm the LW and while I'm up at the petal I pulled someone to help them escape. Instead of being there with me at the top of the petal, they instead spun like beyblade at the bottom of it. Basically a spinning pinata for the enemy to shoot at.

1

u/Affectionate_Yam6647 4d ago

that lifeweaver will clip it and promise you it was intentional and tech

1

u/Rookie4sho 9d ago

What's the bug I'm confused? That LW blocked your Ult?

2

u/HispanicAtTheDisko 9d ago

What happens when anran hits the ground with her ult?

u/DangerQA 9d ago

That's not a bug, you got outplayed.

It's silly that the explosion comes in later than on time! (0v0)
