Hello! First off, let me say that I am loving the update. Solid starting place from the CT version, and liking the polishing with the game. Been playing a lot and would give it a 9/10 so far.
Biggesr issue right now is the ability to play multiplayer with my Necromancer. I currently run a 9 skeleton archers, 5 mage build with Cold Critical. Currently my archers shoot 7 projectiles a piece every 4ish seconds, and my mages shoot 3 a piece at a rate of almost 2/second.
There in lies the issue I have been having. As of right now I am 96 and have gotten 1 party to be successful with 1 other person that entire time. I have tried over 35+ parties with this build and have had massive failures in stability with the other parties (ranging from 2-4 players). My other Mage and Sentinel characters have had very few issues though, so I believe this is a Necro minion issue.
I have had issues such as disconnects, freezes, lag, desync, loss of echoes, loss of stability in boss fights (resets to 0 even if I had a max bar, and it was my friends boss and I even didnt die), monolith quest progress, inability to find a stable Monolith room, and inability to finish even a simple set of 5 echoes. The issue though is that 99% of these issues are other players having them.
If I did a boss fight for example, I would invite a buddy. We would both hop in, and then we would start. Within 1 second of all my minions shotgunning their prohectiles they would freeze, desync, and die. Then after their death my game would have a desync error due to the fact that it wouldn’t be able to sync with their client. Then the boss would be lost. Even if I got the kill I would lose all progress, and not get to chose a blessing.
Again if I do the same thing on my Mage or Sentinel it is pretty decent, and very few issues. After testing all of us, 7+ players agree it seems to be the shotgun projectiles of 60+ a second at times, that seems to be lagging things out.
Any update or looking into this would be great, I would love to be able to play with my friends on my favorite build.
I will attempt to obtain video and log files this next week when I can!
