Is Earth Shield ever going to be fixed?

still bugged

22

Yep, and bugged in such a way that it feels intentional. I donā€™t even PvP and I notice it.

23

It doesnā€™t seem to happen with reactive warding, which I was trying this week with farseer.

It has happened since Therazaneā€™s Resilience was added at least and continues to happen when speced into that.

I assume they have to run some script in the background to make the no charges version of ES work and it removes the existing earth shields that are up when it runs. :man_shrugging:

I suspect youā€™re on the money with that. Therazanes is most definitely the culprit and that seems super reasonable from my lay perspective.

We are beyond the two month mark. It can not be that hard to fix earth shield constantly falling off.

It is a main part of my healing, absolutely unreal to not fix this yet.

They didnā€™t fix the queens decree or whatever the aoe riptide proc during legion was until the pre patch of BFA That bug prevented you from looting or interacting with NPCs until the aoe proc ended.

Friday night hot fixes state it was finally fixed. I havenā€™t had the problem happen since.

28

Weā€™ve reverted hotfixes to Earth Shield and Water Shield (with Therazaneā€™s Resilience talented) from last week that was causing them to behave unexpectedly.

Weā€™ll continue to work on addressing this.

Reverted it? Not on to test. So its back to falling off?

30

Bisko confirmed it above.

31

Why revert it? What broke with its fix that needed this fix to be undone?

32

Because it introduced another bug affecting our mana regen, and earth shield was automatically reapplying without Therazaneā€™s Resilience selected

Is warlock sweet souls ever going to be fixed? Its veen bugged since dragonflight released, only works if party members are on the warlocks realm.

34

So, earth shield stopped falling off after the little fixā€¦ for a bitā€¦ Then logged on later some time - earth shield falling off again.

Problem not solved.

36

Sooo about thisā€¦

Did the team just give up on fixing this properly?

Can confirm Iā€™m having it happen not even after zoning in but in the middle of raid pulls for LoU. It will immediately drop on both me and whichever tank I have it on and I have to wait until I have 2 globals to reapply (not to mention the mana cost of having to reapply on one of the most mana-intensive heal specs in the game atm).
