I dunno if it's supposed to be working like this, but I fought an enc today who was blue to me and I had 55 mr at lvl 19 and he managed to keep me stunlocked the whole fight with whirl. didn't resist it once, and it lasted about 8-10 seconds. even when it ran off and I could move I still couldn't cast any spells, it acted like I was silenced. Just wondering if its working properly.

The stun stacking after it wears off has been an issue for a very long time. I've put in a bug report a long time ago on P99 blue. I can reproduce this bug over and over.

This is not just a problem with whirl til you hurl. I have noticed it with bards as well. Whenever you get stunned, even after it wears off, it sometimes does not allow you to move/cast spells but your melee attacks still run. Very weird, and is a very big game-changing problem in pvp situations, obviously.

Just want to reiterate the fact that this spell is stupidly powerful right now in its bugged state. The stun on this spell is lasting between three and four ticks when it's supposed to last two ticks. Damage isn't breaking it early either.

Some examples:

[Mon Nov 28 02:04:49 2011] You begin casting Frost Strike.
[Mon Nov 28 02:05:06 2011] You begin to spin.
[Mon Nov 28 02:05:06 2011] You can't cast spells while stunned!
[Mon Nov 28 02:05:07 2011] You can't cast spells while stunned!
[Mon Nov 28 02:05:08 2011] You can't cast spells while stunned!
[Mon Nov 28 02:05:09 2011] You can't cast spells while stunned!
[Mon Nov 28 02:05:11 2011] You can't cast spells while stunned!
[Mon Nov 28 02:05:12 2011] You can't cast spells while stunned!
[Mon Nov 28 02:05:12 2011] You are unstunned.
[Mon Nov 28 02:05:13 2011] You can't use that command right now...
[Mon Nov 28 02:05:17 2011] You can't use that command right now...
[Mon Nov 28 02:05:19 2011] You can't use that command right now...
[Mon Nov 28 02:05:20 2011] You can't use that command right now...
[Mon Nov 28 02:05:21 2011] You haven't recovered yet...
[Mon Nov 28 02:05:22 2011] You feel dizzy.
[Mon Nov 28 02:05:22 2011] You haven't recovered yet...
[Mon Nov 28 02:05:22 2011] You can't use that command right now...
[Mon Nov 28 02:05:24 2011] You can't use that command right now...
[Mon Nov 28 02:05:25 2011] You cannot see your target.
[Mon Nov 28 02:05:29 2011] You begin casting Healing.

One stun. Autoattack indicates when I became unstunned after 19 seconds. The 'you are unstunned' message is inaccurate. 'You can't use that command right now...' is me attempting to cast spells.


[Mon Nov 28 02:26:26 2011] You are stunned!
[Mon Nov 28 02:26:26 2011] You begin to spin.
[Mon Nov 28 02:26:30 2011] You can't cast spells while stunned!
[Mon Nov 28 02:26:31 2011] You can't cast spells while stunned!
[Mon Nov 28 02:26:32 2011] You can't cast spells while stunned!
[Mon Nov 28 02:26:33 2011] You can't cast spells while stunned!
[Mon Nov 28 02:26:35 2011] You can't cast spells while stunned!
[Mon Nov 28 02:26:36 2011] You can't cast spells while stunned!
[Mon Nov 28 02:26:37 2011] You can't cast spells while stunned!
[Mon Nov 28 02:26:38 2011] You resist the Whirl till you hurl spell!
[Mon Nov 28 02:26:39 2011] You can't cast spells while stunned!
[Mon Nov 28 02:26:40 2011] You can't cast spells while stunned!
[Mon Nov 28 02:26:41 2011] You can't cast spells while stunned!
[Mon Nov 28 02:26:42 2011] You can't cast spells while stunned!
[Mon Nov 28 02:26:43 2011] You feel dizzy.
[Mon Nov 28 02:26:43 2011] You can't cast spells while stunned!
[Mon Nov 28 02:26:44 2011] You can't cast spells while stunned!
[Mon Nov 28 02:26:44 2011] You are unstunned.

3 full unambiguous ticks of stun.

I made a post about it like 2 years ago and they answered that everything is fine with that spell so I highly doubt they will change it now

my only death i had so far was by a group with a chanter chaincasting whirl on me. i went 100 to 0 without being able to cast or run once in that fight. good times :cool:

i do think tho, that it can be easily resisted once u reach higher MR

it breaks p. much instantly on any melee dmg

and very resistable at decent mr.

This is incorrect. Whirl appears to be acting differently on a player vs an NPC.

If it is cast on an NPC spell damage or melee damage will break the Whirl.

If it is cast on a PC it lasts full duration and cannot be broken by melee or spell.

It seems that some stuns spell last way longer than intended, Whirls and bard songs comes to mind.

Is there an issue with stuns lasting one tick too long? The stuns wear off, you can move but you still cant cast spells for 6+ seconds. It happens in PVE too, I get that a lot when I try to recharm sonic bats!

This is how it worked on blue before it was changed.

You could cast Whirl Till you Hurl on NPC's and it would last about one tic too long.

The worn off message would occur but the NPC would stay stunned.

It seems it was changed vs NPC's only and not vs PCs, should be a pretty easy fix.

The truth is, its not supposed to land this much. My guild, I believe compared to others has quite a few more enchanters and I've taken part in killing whirled players more often than many. The truth is, this spell was nerfed so f'ing hard in live and just shouldn't be landing like even on naked players.
