    The animation on this GE cracks me up

    I don't know if this is the most "thrown together " GE or what! I've seen others talk about NPCs sliding around on their knees, but I just shot Larae and she dropped to her knees and then slid (at a running pace) across the floor and up the stairs...all the time squirming and screaming in pain! If you haven't seen an NPC slide UP the stairs on their knees yet the first time you'll laugh till you cry.

    It's like the shock animation doesn't cancel out the character's ability to move around the environment, so it does both at the same time...and it looks absurd.

    At least it's good for a laugh, but seriously...

    It's probably some scripting error. Either, something is getting overwritten or something is failing to function. Could even be a server issue.

    Btw, knee sliding shocked NPCs have been happening for a while now, way before this GE.

    NPC seems to never stop their animations after they started. As this GE the "shock" thing is supposed to act like an interrupt, it doesn't really work and you often see an NPC running while shocked.
    If you played Underground with directive you should be used to it

    I did play UG with Directives a LOT, but admittedly had a Tac skill build finely tuned just for that, so never really saw them sliding around more than a few feet on their knees.

    I'm telling y'all though, the first time you see Larae sliding UP the stairs on her knees while screaming you will laugh so hard you'll struggle to finish the mission!

    Hunters in the UG always slide towards me when shocked and this is prior to any GE's. It's funny watching them slide to me then about a second later when they are literally right next to me they pull their axe out and do you know what lol
