'small flame' attack in Peakvox Ninja

Hello. If you've been playing the ninja game I'm sure you've come accoss this. And enemy with a sword gets hits you and a small flame appears around your body. This move not only stops you dead in your tracks but can also kill you with one hit (even if it's not a headshot) or talk off half your life.

Now it's not the fire magic that is can be preformed by filling up your magic bar. For starters the fire magic is much miuch bigger visually. Also the fire magic surrounds the caster.

So either there is a secret attack that can only be done while using a katana and having the fire element .. or it's some form of cheating.

Personally, I don't care if someone beats me fair and square, but the thought to losing to possible cheaters pisses me off.

Anyways, if anyone have any ideas behind this please post a reply. Thanks.

 

That's a good guess, but nope, it's been happening before the update.

And before anyone writes me off as being bonkers, try playing the game more and I'm sure you'll experience the same thing yourself.

 

Thank you! It sucks, but I'm glad me and my wife aren't the only ones.

And you're right, a person that can do this move isn't shy about using it over and over. It's very irritating.

Another thing I just remembered; it's not a bomb. When I frist tried to explain it to my wife, she just dismissed it as getting hit with a explosive. However, in this game when you use different weapons the characters hold the weapon they are using in their hand.

People doing this 'flame attack' aren't switching weapons, they always have a sword in their hands. More over (off the top of my head) getting hit with an explosive doesn't create a small flame image on you. And finally, you know how hard it is to hit someone with a bomb at melee range? And what bomb can take half or all of your life in one hit?

Let's hope we aren't the only people that have noticed this and are vocal about it.
