Trivia section: Wings of Eclipse rank-down during G12 mainstream final

Trivia section: Wings of Eclipse rank-down during G12 mainstream final

The information in that section is totally false. I watched the skill very carefully during my G12 final. It behaves oddly and very much unlike the rest of the Demigod skills, but it NEVER ranks down.

Here's exactly what happens. When the skill EXP reaches zero, the skill cancels as it normally would. However, at the exact same moment, the skill rank-up effect appears around the player and it is announced that the skill has been ranked...to the same rank it was at before. In my case (Hard difficulty, R6 Morrighan skills during the final battle), I was treated to a long series of rank-ups to Rank 6, over and over and over again, throughout the fight. It NEVER actually ranks down. It DOES lose EXP, but it resets itself back to full EXP rather than ranking down. I don't know why Nexon didn't simply make its EXP lossless like the rest of the Demigod skills, but de-ranking simply doesn't occur.

I allowed mine to cancel multiple times. After the 4th cancelation or so the skill excp stopped coming back and it began to rank down.

Don't know what happened to you, but I never saw anything other than "You became Rank 6".

It does derank. If you're hit low enough, you'll lose exp without having Eclipse canceled. When you lose all the EXP, you don't gain the EXP back and you will derank on the next use. Trust me, it deranks. I've done it enough to know.

Then why are we blindly reinstating that section under the assumption that it was INTENDED to derank? Such an assumption seems foolish at best given the behavior of the other skills. There's obviously a mechanic in place to keep it from deranking but according to you two it doesn't always work. Why not simply include a warning that it MAY derank during G12 final because of a glitch?

Whos to say its a glitch? Seems pretty intentional to me.

I'd say intentional. The barrier doesn't go away no matter how many times Nuadha hits it, therefore, making you immune.

Proof WoE deranks: [1] (fast forward to 3:22. Says it became from 7 <- 6 at 3:31).

Every time nuadha light spears you it gets disabled (at least on Hardmode). But you can turn it back on.
