Tughlaq Dynasty - Elephant Trample - Trample ability on War Elephant and Raider Elephant sometimes does 0 damage

  • Build Number: 15.1.7064.0

  • Platform: Steam

  • Operating System: Windows 10

Issue: Tughlaq Dynasty - Elephant Trample ability sometimes does 0 damage (determined per Elephant when they spawn)

Both the War Elephant and Raider Elephant can Trample for a few seconds and does area damage.

However, for some Elephants Trample deals normal damage, and for other Elephants, it deals 0 damage.

This appears to be determined when an Elephant unit spawns. If it works on a specific Elephant unit, it will always work. If it does 0 damage on a specific Elephant unit, it will never work. I have not seen it change between from working or not working.

Note: Primarily affects War Elephant.

War Elephant: “Randomly” will spawn with a Trample ability that does 0 damage. This randomness can seem 50/50 sometimes. Other times, I can spawn 10, 20, or 50 consecutive War Elephants that work correctly. Or spawn 10, 20+ consecutive War Elephant that deal 0 Trample damage.

Maybe overall I’ve seen 10-20% of War Elephants Trample not working in testing.

Raider Elephant: I have seen it fail to work 1 time. I’ve tested this less, but it works almost always.

Trigger Event: When spawning, the War Elephant (and rarely Raider Elephant) will have a Trample ability that either always deals normal damage, or always deals 0 damage.

Repro Steps: Spawn War Elephant, test Trample damage, and repeat. (Don’t stop at 10 or 20. Do 100+.)

You will eventually find some or many War Elephants that deal 0 Trample damage.
