2 TRIDENT BUGS WHILE USING DOME SHIELD AND AFTERMATH OF ARC STARS

Product: Apex Legends
Platform:Microsoft XBOX One
Please specify your platform model. Microsoft Xbox One X
What is your gamertag/PSN ID/EA Account name? Jakattakcool
Please provide your squad mates' gamertag/PSN ID/EA Account name if possible. Don’t know
Are you using any software with an overlay? No
Which Legend were you playing (if applicable)? Valkyrie
Which Legends were your squad mates using (if applicable)? Gibraltar
Where did the issue occur? In a match
Which part of the map or menu were you in? If you don't remember the exact name, please describe the area or what you were trying to do in the menu. Both occurrences where in a different location
What were you doing when the issue occurred? E.g. respawning a squad mate at a beacon, using an ability, a squad mate left the game. Driving a trident while a dome shield is used. 2nd bug: arc star hit a trident causing the usual arc star affect
Did your squad mates also experience the issue? Yes
How many matches had you played in a row before the issue occurred? 10 ish
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) About two hours before post
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
How severe is your issue? Major impacts to gameplay
What happens when the bug occurs? 1st issue: a dome shield was used on a trident and the shield looked fine but bullets went through killing me and my squad mate. 2nd issue: the trident went through the routine arc star stun but after the boost wouldn’t charge causing me and my squad mate to die
What should be happening instead? 1st issue: bullets should hit the shield and not our teams face. 2nd issue: the trident should charge boost and then boost
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I guess recreate the scenarios and test if issues are consistent

not much other info to provide but frustrating after losing RP to bugs that seem like they would be ironed out with the release of tridents

    @jackattackcoo1 Thanks for the post. Just to be clear, was the dome shield "stuck" to the trident and moving with it? Did youi die to the reduced damage gunfire to the trident or get shot off individually. 

    For the 2nd one, just so I understand, after an arc star stun, the trident's charge meter was just permanently decommissioned? Do you recall if it was full or you were mid-charge when the arc star went off?

    If you happen to have clips of either of these they'll help a lot, but it's understandable if not.

    Cheers.

  • Hi David the dome shield was stuck to the trident (from what I was seeing the shield stuck to the car and created a dome around the car to protect my squad from gunfire) and looked fine with no visual errors but gunfire still went through and hit the trident and me and my squad mate who were already low and died

    For the second bug pretty sure which boost was recharging a arc star hit it and everything played out normal but a for the rest of our game the boost meter was there but didn’t charge just stuck at 0%

    Don’t have any clips sorry

    Hope this helps!
