Serious question, did the daze mechanic get a stealth buff recently? Everything that hits me now dismounts me. I’ve done some tests with a few guildies, and it seems to be happening a lot more compared to yesterday/ last week. I understand it’s supposed to happen once in a while, but almost every other hit now? it’s never been this bad, something’s changed.
Did they buff it to make the coming mount equipment thing wanted? If so, that’s really sad, and not at all how to go about making an item from a feature wanted.
I honestly don’t think anyone cares for the daze mechanic. I can see it being a pvp thing, but why is it still a pve thing? Especially considering tanks don’t get effected by it. It should really be a retired, and moved to just pvp situations.

I think it was increased at the start of BFA, as I have never been dazed as much as I do this expansion.
When mount equipment comes, I’m putting on the Anti-Daze armor and never taking it off again. Goodbye Daze, I wont miss you.

I feel like it has been this way my entire life and I cannot wait for the mount equipment because of it

I understand I can go prot. I’m just saying compared to last week, I wasn’t getting knocked off as much. Just something I noticed

I wouldnt doubt it in the least! There’s probably some right vindictive people working at blizz. “Oh you don’t like our plans/designs/changes? Well, we know you hated daze before so let’s see how you like it now!”
lol Also I wouldnt doubt they’d increase the chances just to try and get some people to forgo the waterwalking mount equipment for the anti-daze one…

Havent noticed it here. I think its just random. I was herbing before a raid last night, not even using barding. Wasn’t getting dismounted.

They have a nasty habbit of trying to sneak in changes they know no one will like.

I think so too. I have never been dazed as much as I have since BfA launched. I also think they made it so mobs follow you for a longer time too when you aggro them.

Glad I’m not the only one who thought so.

I wouldn’t doubt it, it’s one of the dumbest mechanics added to any game and Blizzard just seems to love it.

Off course. Trash mobs exist purely for the purpose of annoying players. Why not reinforce it?
Did you lose a trait that gives you shield recently?
Every single time a 'toon gets dazed the Ion gets a twinkle in his eye. Every little bit helps, yah dig?
It’s like Ion, and this team, gets paid in our wasted time. They’re sure as hell designing it so.

Daze should have been removed from the game 10 years ago. Now they are using it as a smoke screen for destroying the water walking mount.

Yes, looks like that’s what it’s about.
First take water striding ability off the water striders and give us a one per character equipment choice.
Next make the ant-daze equipment a necessity.
At the very least this will have us continually paying out to swap equipments back and forth.
