Atlantis Action Bar (Decoy).

Okay, I don't get this, and probably others don't either. The "decoy" function helps you dodge torpedos. So how in the world does a player hit me with multiple "unknown enemy" torpedoes using this function??? I thought my friend got that effect on me by locking on me and firing while submerged. But he just told me he did that by using the "decoy" on me today. It certainly does not say that below:

Decoy



A decoy can be vital in avoiding damage and staying alive! Pressing the Decoy button will give you a short buff (duration 3 seconds) allowing you to dodge any incoming torpedoes!

Overview:

Any incoming Torpedoes while active do 0 Damage
AEC cost: 2
Cooldown: 25 sec
Lowers the damage caused by surface ships.

 

Ahoy Dream~Crusher!

Well... this is simply impossible.

Decoy remove incoming torpedo damage and that's it. There is no secondary function to it.

Your friend simply lied.

In order to hit player with "Unknown Enemy" it is necessary to be under Stealth - until that torpedo hits your ship you won't be able to tell whos attacking you.

Decoy is working as intended.

I know him, and he didn't "lie" to me. He was just mistaken (and is still learning the "finer points" of Atlantis, as am I). I thought he was mistaken, but wanted to check. Thank you for the clarification.

 

Ahoy!

Since there are no further questions I will close this thread.

Happy Sailing!
