Not sure what the cause of this is but quite often the blacked out "Map Fog" won't clear even though a Templar has direct line of sight to a square.
All to often this happens on squares containing enemies and spawn points.
Rather aggravating to see 7-8 squares away cleared but have an area 2-3 squares from Templar still be obscured.

xdesperado - sorry that you're having this problem. Can you share your device details? Also, posting a screenshot could help, as these are going to be very specific situations and may be related to your device.

Same thing on Kindle Fire HDX and the same issue in HoS. Brought it up in HoS a long time ago and IMO it is an artifact of the LOS subroutine. Just happens sometimes and is mildly annoying. I'll figure out how to take screenshots on this thing and try to catch it happening.

I'll figure out how to take screenshots on this thing and try to catch it happening. I think it's the same as on most newer Android tablets: Simultaneously press the Power and Volume Down buttons, and hold them for a second or two. You'll hear some kind of a tone, and the shot will be saved somewhere in your Photos folder. |

Engineer / Scout's Scan Talent is particularly awesome at eliminating blind spots from the battlefield.

So is it by design that some squares will stay stubbornly blacked out even though a Templar (or Hero in HoS) will have clear line of sight and proximity or is this a bug?
Rather annoying to have obscured tiles holding enemies that freely attack you while still being hidden from sight, will become lethal if you make changes to prevent recon by fire for such situations.
