Game Mechanics: Worn haste bug

[Aesop]

bump, come on I wanna wear my lodi shield instead of wearing cof in addition to my ragebringer.

at least make it consistent, so worn % haste doesn't affect the backstab timer either.

no dont listen to him lol - haste should affect the timers for the backstab etc

they just need to examine the code for the specific affects where it is bugged and not affecting the cool down, then tweak it so the client accepts its haste as a factor for the buttons refresh......then again - Lay Hands has been broken for 5 years.

There might be legit issues when dealing with bugs that affects cool downs on buttons, I am not sure if this bug literally has existed since the dawn of time and no one truely noticed til recently or if its something that was introduced with a 'fix'

its very annoying to have to 'gear for haste' as a Rogue who uses a Ragebringer, that should be your haste item, not an additional one so you can simply backstab at a proper rate should your Ragebringer work.

as it stands right now - you must wear a CoF or Sky belt as a raiding rogue. That is unless you are in A/A and have access to many other haste options that are also gear upgrades. It is a non-issue then but the vast majority will experience this issue, and its really something that is wide spread to many classes besides rogues as Ranger's epic also are affected by this plight. Archery cool down is also bugged with this if you use Swiftwind for your haste.

Epics are downgraded due to this one mechanic, its unfortunate esp considering the amount of evidence proving this is indeed not working properly on P99.

[Aesop]

that would be preferable.

I've no other worn haste than Ragebringer and I cannot afford to shop for a big haste item. Slow backstabs especially in groups with no haste buffs. Any chance of a word from someone on this?

Let me put this another way.

If the haste from items was affecting cooldowns, it was not intended. Now that the haste on items is actually fixed, evidence should be gathered that item haste should affect cooldowns. That is how to proceed.

Nilbog, what are your thoughts on the links I posted at the bottom of the second page?

yes, I thought those links were case closed on this myself. He probably didn't see them so bump!

So we good for a fix next patch? This seems like a significant non-classic change that was made. Backstab is supposed to be effected by worn haste. Is more evidence required?

And specifically worn haste that comes from weird effects like Seething Fury on the Rogue epic.

[Erati]

seems like a straightforward fix to me

could Nilbog peruse the code and create some great relief for everyman rogue with only their Ragebringer for haste
