Is anyone finding that Summoned Ice Blades does not reduce the cool down of Flame Shield? It is definitely not working for me but I don’t see anyone else complaining about it so I’m a bit confused. After the maintenance on June 24th, I can clearly see all my other cooldowns being reduced with Ice Blades but Flame Shield’s cooldown is remaining steady.
Nice find!
No idea, but this PTR looks like the Season of Bugs!
I wish this was on the PTR but it’s not. It’s what I’m currently experiencing in Season 4
I as easily farming PIT 101 but now I die every now and then since my Flame Shield doesn’t come back as early as it used to.
Oooooo, damn…
They started to mess with it already… (next season, officially, the cool down will only start after the spell end)
Same, died so much today, thought I accidentally sold a build item.
Well… it is my understanding that some Sorcerers survived to reach level 100. Worse yet, some even successfully run Pit run and temper their gear! Imagine that!
That was not intended, and they are slowly patching the bugs!
Please report this in the bug forum in both PTR and the regular bug forum
They probably hard coded a clause where Flame Shield cooldown can’t be reduced by any means, you know, to prevent Flame Shield from being always on.
I also do not see Unstable Currents getting any kind of CDR buff from iceblades and once i get rolling iceblades is taking maybe 1-2 seconds to reset. I also do not see a “damage burst” for the 10 seconds its up.
I finally took UC out of the build. Its useless with a 48 second cooldown. Did the Devs nerf this as well? Im not going to be shocked if they did…
Is it working on any cooldowns other than its own? Should be fairly testable on dummies.
Another related question would be whether Hectic is working on Flameshield.
I can confirm it works on itself, Ice Armor, Teleport and Lightning Spear. I play Blizz Sorc so those are the only skills (apart from Flame Shield) I use.
Only trigger with ice blade and meteor (starfall coronet), for all others skills it is definitely not working
yup this is correct IBs only working with those 2 Cds all other get nothing out of it, they bugged yet another sorc interaction. Or maybe even intended.
EDIT: its working. this is a wrong assumption.
Probably intended, the game is actually trash.
nah i was wrong here, it does work, its just that AS is pretty much an requirement if u want any value out of it. And i tested it w/o AS, so it made me believe it wasnt doing its thing, but it does its just very small increase with low AS.
Also the fact that STarfall kinda doubledips here, made me believe it didint do anything for other spells.
Thanks for the clarification tho
