Hey!
I really love the new Bilebomb!
But right now, it is just silly, how i get slowed down as gorge, when i have Bilebomb on anything. This propably happens, because of the Slowdown, when i hit something.
I just want to know, if this is a bug (hope so) or a feature.

Build 223

Sorry, if this was already posted elsewhere, i could not find it.

    Just to clarify, I assume Lev is talking about the fact that celerity doesn't kick in as long as bilebomb is actively damaging something, somewhere. Makes hit-and-run practically impossible, since even if you manage a few seconds without taking marine fire (to get the celerity speed-up), you can't get it with the BB tick.

    Make Celerity work in combat? Make all Alien upgrades work in combat just like the Marine ones work for them?

    Yeah, I've always thought it was silly that celerity wasn't made permanently active (maybe keeping the acceleration?) after they took it down from the unreal travel speeds it used to provide.

    Same thing with spores. If its going to be out of combat, at least make it so that Things like spores, bile bomb, or other things that do constant damage without you forcing it doesnt count as 'combat'. :/

    It's been reported on the bug tracker. Funny enough, Hydras also used to stop Celerity for every spike hit :P
