Finding:
1. Players can hit trees with converted Normal Attacks (e.g: Tartaglia's Melee Stance, Kamisato Ayato's Takimeguri Kanka (TK) Stance, etc.) by first dealing a Physical DMG hit, then followed by converted NAs. [1]
2. Tree hits will be registered for a limited duration. The timer for this duration begins when Physical DMG is dealt to the tree; subsequent hits during this duration will not reset the timer [2.1]. If trees are receive their first hit at different times, their timers will begin independent of each other. [2.2]
3. The character dealing converted NAs can still register hits against a tree, even if a different unit deals the first Physical hit. [3]

Evidence:
[1]: Examples of converted NAs hitting trees and collecting wood
- <link>: Tartaglia shooting an arrow dealing Physical DMG, followed by NAs in Melee Stance
- <link>: Ayato dealing Physical DMG with N1, followed by NAs in TK Stance

[2.1]: <link> - Ayato delaying Physical hit into converted NAs, resulting in a varying number of hits
[2.2]:

[3]
- <link>: Zhongli dealing Physical DMG, allowing Ayato to register hits in his TK Stance

Significance: Better understanding of interactions with trees. Allows the collection of wood typically not possible when only attacking with converting NAs.
not sure if these tree mechanics are already covered in tcl :OMEGALUL:

hm, sounds basically the same as what ive written up there, but with different wording
i guess the only extension i can add to the existing entry in the library is for this:

"Finding: ... • Marks last a very short time ... "

Finding: Tree hits with converted Normal Attacks will be registered for a limited duration, i.e. marking a tree. The timer for this duration begins when any unit deals Physical DMG to the tree; subsequent hits during this duration will not reset the timer [1]. This mark will last for 5 seconds. [2]

Evidence:
[1] https://youtu.be/QgXy-3uqDCA - Ayato delaying Physical hit into converted NAs, resulting in a varying number of hits.

- 0:01 Medium: 5 hits
- 0:16 Long: 3 hits
- 0:31 Short: 11 hits

[2] https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11WzlwgGTWGsQt0cmFSCRMZbr9zj9OGyrUvXuq9dxtvE/edit#gid=0 - Tree mark duration (in frames), roughly 300 frames at 60fps.

AnmaruTue, January 3, 2023 at 06:46 AM
not me looking for ayato's sword cues as a way to land tree mark frames perfectly :pepela:
Finding: Marking trees and the duration of the mark are both client-side.

Evidence: https://youtu.be/bNdGROZnSvI

Significance: Demonstrates that the act of marking trees and mark duration are not dependent on ping.

at 60fps, the mark seems to last for 300 frames
not sure about 30fps yet but we'll get there :pepela:
should also be roughly 5s at 30fps
Screen_Shot_2023-01-08_at_3.35.51_PM.png
sometimes it doesnt register but its prob bc of the weird :PepeGa: stuff that happens to the game at lower frame rates
i basically just tried many different delay timings to see how close i could get each of ayato's E state attacks to the mark duration, and it gradually converged to around 300, with anything beyond 300 seemingly not registering
given the limited practical use of this knowledge, i dont think theres too much benefit in trying to land exactly 299, 300 and 301 for the hitlag or hitmark frames
and 5 seconds seems to be a fair deduction from the 60 and 30fps frame data ± a few frames bc of freezes, game slowdown (or whatever reason is behind it)
ill clean up the sheets to be more readable, but let me know if i should add or change anything else :love:

have you consider dumbing down your sheet notes a little, or at least make it easier to understand, like include why these data matters and in what way

( ˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶ ) <3 | CasdelaSun, January 8, 2023 at 11:50 AM
you could start by stating that you use ayato's hit mark to determine the "mark" timing, then explain what "missing hitlag" means
💯1
is the ayato vanish data necessary :yaehmm:
Avatar
AnmaruSun, January 8, 2023 at 11:53 AM
its kind of like to show when the next hitmark would have been if the mark didnt expire
that way u can say that: there was a hitmark at 295, but no hitmark at 314 where we expected there to be one
so from that, we can conclude that the mark must have expired between 295 and 314
Avatar
AnmaruSun, January 8, 2023 at 12:16 PM
actually no yeah i see ur point
ill have to double check to see if the hitlag frames for each Shunsuiken slash is the same
cuz if not, then using the ayato vanish data to estimate the next hitframe isnt correct
@( ˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶ ) <3 | Casdela thank you for your patience while i cleaned up the sheets
ive added a sheet "KEY - Field descriptions" which gives a description of each field and why they are needed
ive also made the comments for each record more clear
hopefully itll be less painful to go through :ohno:

( ˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶ ) <3 | CasdelaSat, January 14, 2023 at 07:45 AM
it's definitely clearer than before

would you mind rewording this too, I don't think this is correct :yaehmm:
Tree hits with converted Normal Attacks will be registered for a limited duration, i.e. marking a tree.
also, I recognize that artist's art style in your pfp, is that Zhongli :GOOBA:

AnmaruSat, January 14, 2023 at 08:33 AM
i might move that to a separate finding altogether since the current one it belongs in addresses the mark duration rather than the hits themselves:hmm:
