So even after the target is destroyed, its still casting but it casts for the full 10 secs, and goes back to normal. For now, you have to press Esc after you killed your target so it'll cancel the channeling animation. I dunno if this was intended but let's wait and see :T It does upset me a bit though this is a bug and they know source: http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/forum/topic/791269342 Hey guys, I've added this to the known issues thread and we hope to have this resolved soon. Thanks for the reports! | ||

Oh wait, do they already get +2 per upgrade because its X2, and thats why they don't get 1 (+1 light) per upgrade? Thats not a very good reason. Phoenixes and Reapers are the only units in the game with broken upgrades. Thor attack is 6(+6 light)x4 and it gets 1(+1 light)x4 per upgrade. If the phoenix had proper upgrades it would be much more useful against Terran early-game was the point of my post. And the fact not getting bonus to light from upgrades ONLY helps Terran by nullifying an early +1 harass (against marines, SCVs and hellions) seems wrong. It has no real effect on PvZ or PvP. | ||

Argh. Waiting for a fix, still. Great how the EU players tell them about the problem, then they patch the US anyway. | ||

You understood perfectly the point I was trying to say through sarcasm. This new addition is exactly like mineral boosting. Yet one is regarded as a bug and the other as an "advanced technique" that caused much whining upon removal. People whining about it should be happy about this phoenix bug, if they really only care about "technical skill", but that's not the case. Did they just forget about it? Or are they hypocrites that only wanted it in the game because they had practiced it already? | ||

They aren't broken. Just because you don't like it how it is does not mean it's broken, wtf? Each unit has it's upgrades individually determined and there are plenty of examples for that. Stalkers and Vikings currently receive +1 per upgrade, despite having a bonus to armored and these were changed during beta. Hellion and Thor upgrades were also like that during beta and they specifically changed them to test that and then reversed it with retail. + Show Spoiler [Beta Patch 15] + Hellion Weapon upgrade bonus decreased from 1 (+1 Light) to 1. Thor Anti-air weapon upgrade bonus decreased from 1 (+1 Light) to 1. | ||
