Ricochet Shot not working on non-demons



AuthorRicochet Shot not working on non-demons
I was wondering if anyone could explain to my why my Mistresses Ricochet shot was not working on griffins in this hunt.

example:
https://www.lordswm.com/war.php?lt=-1&warid=38229649

Ricochet shot:
Whenever this creature deals ranged damage to an enemy, the projectile ricochets three times, each time to another enemy nearest to the previous one. The target takes full damage, the second-in-line - 50% damage, the third one - 25% damage, and the last enemy in line - 12.5% damage. Ranged penalty is applied to all those who are out of shooting range of this creature (more than 6 tiles away). The ricochet shot skips creatures with Demonic ability.
I wondered about the same.

It seems like the mechanic is somewhat bugged when the "next" unit is a demon or an ally and it does not skip it but just stop bouncing.

I am pretty sure I had survival tournaments in which a ricochet hit all 4 enemies and in the next wave it would stop after the first...

[...]to another enemy[...]
In Survival Tournaments this part is bugged. I reviewed this fight (https://www.lordswm.com/war.php?lt=-1&warid=38228228) and once i got allied non-demonic creatures the ability stopped working as intented.

When my titans are the nearest unit the ricochet stops. I guess it looks for the nearest non-demon and then the mechanic notices its an ally and just stops looking for another target...
read this, i think it can explain to you clearly
ops, i miss the link
