For what is supposed to be considered our primary class ability, the one that brings the most flavor and is the most iconic, it sure does leave us vulnerable to ground, air, and aoe attacks, lasts too long without the ability to use any self healing cooldowns mid flight, and is generally a great way to die in pvp while you watch your enemies slowly walk out of it’s flight path and continue to shoot at you.

Anyone who says they never died during deep breath in PvE or PvP is a liar.

I have a few times, mostly in PvP as a trainload of body-rupturing, mind-destroying CC’s and CD’s hit me as I spam click the target reticle on something, anything that the spell parameters will accept.
Gnarlroot’s death circle in his root phase would have hypothetically gotten me twice if not for the fact that I never died during deep breath*
*except for the times I did

My favorite deep breath death was deep breathing over a couple players at an air drop.
Instead of flying over them to the target location, I just kinda stunned myself in place for about seven seconds while they beat me to death.
It was on pretty even ground. Just an open field with no rocks or anything for hundreds of meters.
Anyway, in BGs at least, I usually deep breath out of stealth (shadowlands engineering belt tinker) or throw renewing blaze up first.

That one happens in Ashran all the time…
I’m curious if it’s like a similar bug that happens with bladestorm, where if you eat some form of CC right as you cats it, sometimes you just spin in place or have a snare applied to you while spinning.
