Yup hits like a wet noodle.

Same here. It’s just greyed out. Reminds me when Fire Nova was bugged for a bit in season 1 lol.

it is only active if flame shock is on your target

Good news, it does the same damage if it’s grayed out as it would if you pressed it. You’re literally missing nothing. Completely and utterly horrible change.

The spell is also invisible if you have the Glyph of Primordial Wave applied to it, not projectile visual effect at all.

Revert Pwave for Ele!!!

Definitely not a bug, I mentioned this in another post. When you FS a target you have to wait for the game to register that a target has FS on them and is within range of you before PW becomes active. So you are not just waiting on a Global Cooldown to use PW, you are waiting on the internet as well. Its literally the dumbest ability I have seen in this game. The old Ascendance use to hit all Targets with FS on them with a LB instead of putting FS on the target and hitting them with LB like the new one does. The old one could still be used if no targets had FS on them. You could just proc Ascendance whenever you felt like it. The new PW mechanics are the same as the old Ascendance in that it hits all targets with FS on them, but it differs in you can’t use the ability until the game server tells you that you can use the ability. It is incredibly clunky at best.
