I am not sure but whomever at Bliz thought it was a good idea to remove CC cancelling?!? Removing the defensive skill’s ability to cancel CCs is extremely annoying and just less fun! This terrible decision should be reversed since the game is extremely CC heavy and the ability to cancel a CC only enhances the combat mechanics.
Side note - Another dumb decision was nerfing the non-Torment Boss loot. Never go from lots to nothing! Odd move… same with Goblins… from lots of loot to a 1/4 of what it was!
Another huge issue (at least on PC) are clicked skill buttons not casting! I have to double click or even triple click to get skills like Lightening Spear or Ice Blades to cast and quite often I click on a Defensive Skill like Ice Armor and it does NOT cast which either kills me or nearly kills me. This is my main reason for not maxing out a char on Hardcore.
Lastly… why are PIT level 90 Bosses (190) seem to have twice the HP of Torment Bosses (200)? It takes a much longer time to burn down PIT Bosses. High level Mother’s Judgment boss can be harder than Uber Lillith! lol
At least the HotFix2 helped with WBoss camera view and the annoying disappearing loot/chests and NPCs in the Helltides.
I don’t get why they can’t just nerf the Pit boss before 2.0 drops—let us have some fun and blow off some steam. Who cares if everyone can beat Pit 200 now, especially with the major changes coming in 2.0?

What is all this jargon? None of this is accurate whatsoever.

Not sure what you are on, OP - but do share with the class. Seems mighty trippy!

This part I do agree with though. The skill buttons sometimes just don’t trigger a cast. They occasionally even do a ‘false trigger’ where they seem to cast for a split second where the cooldown count appears for a fraction of a second before it resets and the skill didn’t cast.

I’ve seen this as well on PC. It ‘seems’ to happen less when I use a controller.
The game rocks out on a non infinite engine of inputs per second. This coupled with lag of any kind will harm your commands.
Whoa whoa whoa, hold yer horses.
You saying if you get stunned, you cannot get out of it by using a skill that gives you invulnerable l?
Are you kidding? This is a joke post right? How am I supposed to play barb without some way to break crowd control? I consider a minimum of 2 invulnerables mandatory for a barb.
This has to be a joke, or somebody wrote the patch notes wrong, or misread them.

No sir. Kindly you are misunderstanding. There is nothing you can do as a Barb. CCed or otherwise.
i dunno what he is talking about. i still can get out of cc with unstoppable skills

This is something I run into on xbox as well.
The rest is just pure nonsense. Defensive skills have never broken CC…but any skill that produces Unstoppable (many of which are Defensive) will. And still does.

Perhaps it depends on the skills/class but the CC issue is accurate. Playing as a Sorc atm I WAS able to break CCs when casting defensive skills like Fire Shield and Ice Armor so previous to the changes those skills were available to use when CC’d. NOW… the defensive skills when I am CC’d are grayed out (disabled) until the CC is over and I cannot cast them to break the CC like before. Very odd… I can’t be the only one.
Ok, I can be a knucklehead and should have said this may be class specific but this is something I noticed after a recent hotfix with my Sorc and doesn’t seem to be something I can change with a specific build and/or aspect.
i will take a look. i now am questioning whether i have been frozen since patch.
Ice Armor doesn’t have Unstoppable. It never broke any CCs.
I get that but it is was working to break CCs… sounds like it may have been broken but for most of the season I specifically recall firing Ice Armor and it worked (EDIT… aspect related). Now, I am trying to think if I has as aspect that made it work now that I have more Uniques and Ubers then before?!?
Also the Fire Shield hasnt been working against CCs. Something is up… possibly related to skills not casting when pressed on PC. Will check again… thanks for heads up yall!
i was just feared in this past infernal horde and i was able to teleport and stop the cc immediately during the cc. it broke the cc. so i dont know what you are talking about, they still work fine
It does if you imprint the ice armor special on your gear
