phase sheild not block... [not a bug]

...negative damage creatures. one of my pegasus got made to negative damage. he play phase sheild and blocks my other pegasus but not the negative one. but it says it blocks all damage no>?? fix it!!

Negative damage isn't damage, exactly. it's healing. or so that's how I look at it

[smuglapse]

I just tested with my account and negative damage is blocked by Phase Shield.  There may be some issue with Dive since you were using a Pegasus...?  Please provide a screenshot if it happens again.

Phase Shield/Dimensional Shield blocks Antimatter, Gravity Shield blocks them too if they have more then 5 hp and Wings if they ain't airborne.

I marked this as not a bug at first... was that a mistake?

[pikachufan2164]

I'd be inclined to say that it's an intended feature.

Smuglapse already notes the interaction of Antimattered creatures with Phase Shield, Gravity Shield, and Wings in his Game Mechanics thread.

negative damage not block again



sheild did not low negative damage

But this screenshot not about Phase Shield :p
Would you have wanted the negative attack to be lowered so it would heal even more?

[suxerz]

I think you have mistakenly understand the mechanic about antimatter. Negative attack will pass through regardless of the shield defense value - i.e the negative attack will not be lower/higher than the original value. Of course with an exception of three shields as described by Malignant earlier. On top of that, those three shields (dimensional, gravity and wings) omit the negative attack entirely.
