Priest fear breaking instantly

My priest fear is instantly breaking nearly every time just due to DoT damage (SW:P + Void Plague).

Is anyone else experiencing this?

I think it may be because void plague DoT damage has been coded wrong to act as direct damage for cc breaking purposes.

I can’t imagine this is intended…?

Damage can break fears, it’s always been this way with all fears at least in PVP.

it’s RNG every time a feared person takes dmg. you’ve just been unlucky

Bad luck. my priest fears still like mini stuns

Yes I know damage can break fear. Did you even read the post? It’s breaking nearly EVERY TIME on the FIRST dot tick. Goodness gracious, please read before posting nonsense

it’s called being unlucky :expressionless:

No it’s a consistent occurrence, not luck. I’ve played priest for many years. It’s not a normal interaction.

if you say so buddy

even you admit it’s not every time lol

Direct damage has a low chance not to break fear. Are you really so dense you can’t understand the interaction ?

Like I said I believe void plague is being considered “direct damage” instead of “dot damage.” Direct damage has a much higher chance to break fear.

I feel like I’m explaining this to a 3 year old.

Haven’t tried yet my priest isn’t high enough level but does sound fishy outside of bad RNG. with my lock i can fear dot with 3-4 and still doesn’t break half the time on 1 tick. occassionally it does break earlier then usual but not every single time.

other then that just bad RNG. just like how i did a quest yesterday one i do all the time and for the first time it took me so long to get all 10 items from the mob. i think i’ve done this quest about 20+ times already

EXACTLY. My lock can full dot with drain life and fear can stick for full duration consistently. With priest fear and 2 dots it breaks instantly on the first dot tick very often.

yea my priest isn’t high enough lvl to test rn im only lvl 11 i think. it has same tool tip as lock fear though so it should literally just be RNG based. kinda how like the humculie thing seems to have only been used once every 2 minutes but the shards are active for the entire duration. then they only attack when i get attacked and that seems to still be RNG because i could be getting hit maybe 2-3 times and they still don’t attack. usually by the 5th hit they attack and i think it’s only melee based dmg they will attack on unless resummoned.

it doesn’t feel as smooth as say a hunter/lock pet imo where i can tell them to attack target it’s pretty much just up for decoration on short fights and only when i get attacked.

Well since the fear isnt even cleansable it should have a chance to break from damage.

Paladins have walking tremor totem rune.

You will find that these forums are home to some of the most hateful and ignorant trolls to ever grace existence.

All these comments are literally making me dumber.

works fine for me, some times it breaks instantly, some times it breaks after a few seconds, sometimes I get the full duration and wanding action in. its random and working as intended, just unlucky.
