Game Mechanics: Bards Not working Right

mourning · #1 12-13-2011, 04:06 PM

Few things wrong with bards here :

single target mez last 1 second, every time
single target dd with a knockback, has no knockback.
Speed buff does not remove root/snare as it should.

Bards song require LoS at start and end while casters dont need LoS at the end.

Bard songs dont zone and should.

Bard faction song does not work

Uhhh... what? You're talking about crission's pixie strike right? It lasts for about 18 seconds. You're doing something wrong.

Log on and test again Wolf. It lasts ~1 second every time. The AoE one lasts much longer. I tested it on 3 different people and every time it had the same result of breaking faster than a stun.

Are you sure they weren't dotted?

It works perfectly fine in PvE. There might be a problem with how it works in pvp, I can check.

Alright, I'm sorry, I feel like an idiot. I assumed everyone I was mezzing was just dotted, but it turns out that our mez is actually broken (I tested it on myself and like you said, it lasted maybe a second). I can't believe no one on the receiving end of this spell reported it as being broken.

The first one should be the same for both bards and casters. Otherwise you take out the entire strategy of PvP in dungeons.

Do you zone in under 12 seconds? This would be the only way to test this, since all of our songs fade in 12 seconds.

Not sure on the faction one, but the few times I tried it for selling, my faction never appeared to go up.

I can't believe you've been saying it was fine for the last 7 days without ever testing it yourself, even flaming people over it.
