Anyone having any issues with master’s call as of late? Made a post on the bug forums, but maybe i’m missing something.
I have a macro for it and it works, but sometimes it doesn’t. Particularly when I need it too
Checking in, Master’s Call is not working 100% of the time, more like 1% of the time and that might be because the slow debuff ran out and I didn’t notice the timer in the top right.
I’ve tried pulling the ability to the bar and a macro line:
/cast [@Adeuce] Master’s Call
It seems broken still.
Yea, I have tried every known macro. It’s just an coding issue on blizzard’s end. Out of combat it always works. During combat, the pet will still come to me, Master’s Call goes on CD, but doesn’t give the buff OR it just doesn’t do anything at all and just goes on CD.
Dismissing and resummoning your pet at the start of meatches can help. Relogging frequently seems to help. Very frustrating.
It’s still not working at all when using as BM. Blizzard needs to fix this already it’s a huge nerf not having masters call while being trained.
SELF
/tar player
/use Master’s Call
/targetlasttarget
PARTY
/tar party1
/use Master’s Call
/targetlasttarget
These are currently working
I haven’t found it to be an issue with what macro I’m using. Reloading and resummoning the pet have been the only consistent fix.
Yea Masters Call has been messed up for me since the beginning of the Expac. It doesn’t seem to provide Immunity like it’s supposed to for the first 4 seconds after use and I have noticed when I press it sometimes (especially when there is infinite slows on me) it will simply just do absolutely nothing.
I made a post about this awhile back in the Arena forums and everyone just said I was using Masters Call wrong and that it “Probably was clearing my slows but I just didn’t notice the Immunity it gave” or some garbage. Yea it’s absolutely been broken since the beginning of the Expac.
I notice it’s broken worse when I fight Rogues and Mages. I have tested it as well in Duels against Rogue slows and it doesn’t actually clear the slow and doesn’t provide immunity.
I also tested it for fun against my brother in a duel and he took the Consecration slow talent, it didn’t remove the slow and didn’t provide immunity when I stood in Consecration.
Yea, I think it has something todo with the pet not being able to instantly connected. I have only had the issue happen in combat. At times though, it’s been other abilities as well. Reloading after each match and dismissing/resummoning reach time seems to mostly fix it.
Master’s Call is definitely messed up regardless of pathing back to the pet target. Dismiss/resummon never worked for me; Wild Kingdom doesn’t help either.
I’ve been using this:
#showtooltip
/target [@hogx]
/cast [@Hogx] Master’s Call
/targetlasttarget
It seems to work fine.
I think that this is the same issue with intimidation. It has nothing to do with the syntax of your macro. /cast [@player] master’s call should work.
It’s impossible to tell if this is what’s happening with MC because the default thumbnail for the marks and bm/sv versions of the spells are the same. But when intim bugs, it’s showing up as the marks version of the thumbnail but greyed out for me as bm/sv, and no macro is able to call it. The only way I can make intim work in this scenario is by pulling the bm/sv version of the spell off of the talent tree. It is wrong in the spellbook, too.
Just me putting my developer hat on, because there’s no way to actually know, but IMO it stands to reason that the bug is causing the game to get confused about which version of these shared spells that aren’t really the same spells any more are being called. The fact that I seem to be able to reproduce it more frequently via queuing into pvp instances as a different spec and getting force-swapped into the other is more evidence towards that theory as well.
This Macro didn’t work for me btw until I actually fully called out the entire ability. For example
#showtooltip
/target [@Digitizoid]
/cast [@Digitizoid] Master’s Call(Cunning Ability)
/targetlasttarget
This one worked for me.
The targeting lines in this macro are unnecessary. The intermittent bug with hunter abilities doesn’t have anything to do with the syntax of your macro.
this is what is working for me:
#showtooltip Command Pet
/stopcasting
/stopcasting
/tar [@party1]
/cast [@party1] Command Pet
/cast [@party1] Master’s Call(Cunning Ability)
/targetlasttarget
Using it from spellbook works. When you switch from MM → SV or BM it sometimes doesn’t work.
#showtooltip Command Pet
/target mouseover
/use Master’s Call
/cast Command Pet
/targetlasttarget
That’s the macro I use, but it’s hit or miss sometimes.
Don’t know if it’s true, because normally macros are case insensitive, but I heard the fix is to type the spell exactly as it’s in the spell book
/cast [@player] Master’s Call
with proper capitalization.
This is not accurate as I always just link the spell from the spell book directly and have had macros fail.
This isn’t a macro issue.
It’s not the macros above or any other macro. Master’s Call is broken, doesn’t work, needs to be fixed. there.
