Mistweaver monk bug abuse in arena

Just had a mistweaver monk INSTANTLY kill me with Rushing Wind Kick bug in 2v2 arena. I would love to name them but I know that will get me silenced here in forums.

This bug was reported 22 days ago on the PTR.

www.reddit com/r/worldofpvp/comments/1gc42p1/just_got_one_shot_by_a_healer_monk_in_the_opener/

Above is a link to a reddit post on the bug.

Please fix with urgency.

You can report it in game: Game Menu::Support::Bug Report

I’d also post this in the Bugs forums (include the reddit link):

Do those and it has the best chance to seen.

Given how many bugs are currently plaguing the monk class, maybe this bug will motivate blizzard devs to actually start working :laughing:

Only thing that comes to mind

if it’s really in the opener, they can’t have the vitality bar full. I recall* reading about this and it’s actually an exploit with the CD not happening and the damage increase per target not having a cap

my guess why there’s always an ongoing bug with monk is that they coded the class in Chinese but since Blizzard diminished relations with China no one knows what to do

Actually, I found the problem.

Regular old rsk pvp coefficient is 1.0 btw.
Pvp coefficient on the damage spellid of Rushing wind kick: 3

Also, rushing wind kick is getting a 150% increase that does not say pve only, so I really hope they catch that pvp coefficient or anyone queueing is going to get kicked in the face extra hard

I was hoping Yoss would see how pretty my scales are

The bug is with the Tea of Plenty interaction, which allows for spamming of the ability without a cooldown, because Rushing Wind Kick isn’t flagged to consume the buff.

Not with the coefficient.

Separate issue. It having a 2-3s cooldown definitely isn’t causing it to one shot people. If it were hitting for the 300k it should be, there would be no problem.

The bug the OP linked to is what I’m referring to. The linked reddit post ironically isn’t about a one-shot; the linked screenshot shows it being cast 17 times for 16m total damage.

yeah but they were hitting for 1.1mil damage a press and 5 shot doesn’t quite fit my agenda.

That’s going to be 2.75mil with 4.1mil crits after the patch if they don’t touch that coefficient. :dracthyr_uwahh_animated:
