Seems like Blizzard is already aware of the " problem"


Pretty obvious it was a bug, but by saying 'in next patch' it means it will stay in game for quite some time.


Its not like its game breaking really so I doubt it'll be fixed anywhere near as fast as that zerg bug in beta. 6 pool and end up getting like 10 lings or something by canceling larva heh I should have tried that once to see how stupidly strong that was xD.

Well to be fair, it might not change *that* much in killing the PF itself, but with this bug, attacking buildings instead of units has a huge advantage, since you splash everyone and their mother by attacking the building. I mean harassing an OC to kill SCVs, I doubt you'd actually be going for the SCVs, rather the OC and splash most/all the scvs.

I'm a terran yet I approve this change(if this isn't a bug) but the only problem is how that makes much sense(for a military science fiction game) for a unit without psionic powers to kill something physically without reaching it.

I'm surprised so many zerg players neglect using overseers when trying to take down a PF and refer to ultras being the one and only way against PFs.

pf contaminated by overseers will still shoot, its just unable to spawn scvs, its defensive capabilities are unaffected.

They dont use them probably becaouse contaminate no longer stops PF and cannons/turrets from shooting, but only halts production of units inside. That was changed like 4 months ago.

oh my it just doesnt look right to me. but i guess something had to be done about the pf. corruption was the more elegant way though.

OK, let's try to explain, what we have seen on the video.
Ultralisk attack physicaly with clows. They hits the PF. After hit of the PF, PF becomes corrupted, switch side. Then PF uses her invisible spinning wheel, that hurts everything around her and kills scv's. Really, is this something like 1stApril joke Blizzard? 2 months waiting on the patch and this comes out? I feed rage. This is just insult. Make it correct, the splash damage have to be around ultras clows!
Long live and prosper!

If this is *not* a feature, one has to worry about Blizzard's QA process.

The problem is just not PF. It affects the units around all buildings.

If you have a bunch of bunkers or supply depots all units in that area will take damage and die while the Ultras attack the buildings. 12 Marauders and 3 bunkers may actually do worse now than 12 Marauders alone.

It is the most broken thing yet in SC2. It must be hot-fixed now.

Oh so an ultra kills every scv anywhere near a CC in 3 hits. Bye Bye economy. Ya not broken at all.

I even had a game tonight where I didnt repair the PF but my scvs that were mining were still even in range of the bug aoe.

When the Ultras are smashing your PF and SCVs, just imagine the debris and shrapnel flying off the building hitting and crushing the SCVs.

I'm in awe of Blizzards incompetence.
They only made 6 balance changes and one of them fails epicly.
That is so stupid.

That makes no sense visually. The SCV's aren’t anywhere near the Ultralisk melee attack yet they take damage like its magic.

Ultras has always raped PF with or without SCV's repairing it

Even without this "glitch" Ultras would still take down a fortress in a matter of seconds

I can't believe some people are saying this is game breaking or overpowered, they would be complete idiots. The only issue with it is it looks silly.

Ultralisks could deal splash to buildings and units already, it was just in a smaller AoE because they had to target a unit instead of a building.
They didn't have any problem with planetary fortresses at all before, and there's simply no question now (less health lost on ultras and/or PF goes down faster)

OUTSIDE OF BASES, where 90% of combat takes place, ultralisks are LESS powerful than before, due to their 14% damage reduction vs armored units.

Ultralisks still have this same effect on Thors, just like a supply depot or bunker - although ever since thors were decreased in size, its been less radius than those buildings instead of more radius than them.
Nonetheless, This effect has always been around vs thors, and it is pretty good, big whoop.

Might make "Ultra" drops a lot more powerfull, someone might test if that also works if you attack "your own" building.

I ask because you could attack your own building to get splash damage at the "other side" of the building, like a Wall in.

Sounds kinda bugged anyway if thats the intention of the splash damage its pretty strange (i remember it was a lot different in Warcraft).
