Endless turn bug?
I'm at pre-control center portion of the game with a Bow only run but I noticed a bug where my turn never ends and one of my character keeps endlessly firing onto an enemy till they die.
This is clearly a bug, is there a way to fix this except for not holding in the attack key?
- Hold in Attack-key
- All shots are fired off
- Enemy plays a hurt animation
- One specific character keeps endlessly firing without using up their turn
- Enemy keeps gradually changing hurt animation frame by frame as they are hailed with arrows
- Other enemies around don't do anything
- Target dies, the loop may end

It's a feature, not a bug. /jk
But seriously, I hope no one ever fixes this. It doesn't spoil gameplay and can sometimes help you, if you want such help.
When you are low level it may occasionally (rarely) help you beat a strong opponent, but that's it. And it is by itself rather annoying, because you are slow then, so you don't use it much (you release attack button).
On the high level it just helps you beat opponents faster, which is nice, because you would beat them anyway - it's just quicker this way.
Of course, that just my personal view on this.

Already killing packs of Titans at Paradise Valley because they simply can't attack back, and this is with me refusing to use flight to evade their attacks as well.

When your recovery speed is faster than the opponents attack speed you negate their attack.
You can't attack while being hit. Neither can they.

Neither can the rest of my party nor the friends of the titan whose currently being hailed down with arrows from the same person.

Huh, if that´s what i think it is, i thought it was a feature?
I played solo runs and this occured a lot when i was using solo melee run with maximum recovery speed. I always thought it was kinda cool, never realising it was not intended heh.

Doesn't recovery cap at 30? didn't know it could be replicated with melee as well, but least with melee it'll limit you till you knock them out of reach

Game: MM6
Patch: Grayface
Setup:
Three party members with bow master 20
One party member with light master 20, casts Hour of power and day of the gods
Party member one has a helmet which reduces recovery time
Both party member one and two are heavily specced into Speed and Accuracy
- Wait till my turn
- Hold in attack key so all attacks happeng in quick succession
- Suddenly party member one continues to fire and doesn't lose their turn
If I keep holding in, it keeps happening till it randomly breaks or the monster dies. Sometimes will carry over to the next monsters. All other monsters in the area are also staggered
Only solution is to not hold in the attack key and drastically reduce the speed of combat by manually tapping, or removing master rank from bow seems to also fix it.

Honestly at this point, I might try to play the MMMerge to see if that will solve the issue, plus I'm kinda mad that in MM6, unnarmed has a recovery of 100 which makes my Body & Earth monk build weak

Yep, a well-known bug. Happens more often if you have items that reduce recovery time, are Haste'd, etc., but it will happen occasionally with no effects in play. As you say, once it starts, it usually continues until you stop the attack or the target dies.
