- Being critically struck while using /sit to sit does not cause abilities like Enrage, Blood Craze, and Reckoning to activate.
Is wrong.
These 2 videos prove that is false blizzard.

(http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/firetree/Baconn/) 120 Human Paladin22915 Normally if you’re sitting down you would not get Reckoning charges from auto-attacks. However, you could gain charges from random NPCs by constantly sitting and standing up due to server lag: mob would try to attack you as your were sitting, so it’d be a forced crit. However, if you stood up just as you were getting hit, the server would see you as if you were standing and get a Reckoning charge. That’s from Baconn the Paladin who wrote the blue stickied Reckoning guide on the original vanilla wow forums: Poster:

After patch 1.10, Baconn (the author of the stickied post) never bothered to update it.

The forum in 2005 shows a paladin saying reckoning doesnt work from sit, but sit to sit is not thesame as just sitting And that was a 2005 comment yet we still see paladins in 2006 gaining reckoning from sit to sit
There are 2 videos and 1 written description that prove that
Being critically struck while using /sit to sit DOES cause abilities like Reckoning to activate.
Blizzard we have hard evidence of this. Please all we need is 400ms specific batching for reckoning. Remove 10ms for reckoning please.
You put 400ms for spell batching and yet we have evidence reckoning works with original spell batching in the video and also /sit to sit is meant to be able to trigger abilities like reckoning.
We can see it in the two 2006 videos Blizzard.
http://blue.cardplace.com/cache/wow-paladin/1069149.htm Mentions Can I sit down to force a crit and gain a charge? Charges will not generate off auto attacks or npc attacks by trying to sit down and force a crit. However, ability crits from physical abilities such as Sinister Strike, Hamstring, Auto-shot, Aimed shot, etc will generate a charge if you’re sitting.
He says sit. Not /sit to sit Just sitting doesn’t proc reckoning but the 400ms batching between /sit to sit does. Thesame poster who wrote in the bluecard that says this.
Normally if you’re sitting down you would not get Reckoning charges from auto-attacks. However, you could gain charges from random NPCs by constantly sitting and standing up due to server lag
So it is the server lag also known as spell batching that is the one thing that causes reckoning to work. 400ms is what reckoning should be set to. Not 10ms. Just like seal twisting is set to 400ms and not 10ms. You were able to set seal twisting to 400ms without affecting everyone elses gameplay because it has it’s own private spell batching. Why can’t you do thesame with reckoning?

3 self crits of reckoning and redoubt in 12 seconds in original 2006 classic 400ms batching is what we should have, exactly like on the left side of the video which has the two 2006 videos merged together.
Not 3 self crits in 269 seconds at 10ms in the 2021 10ms video on the right…
10ms gives paladins almost no window of opportunity to proc self crits with reckoning. 10ms is not blizzlike at 400ms.
2006 classic: 3 self crits in 12 seconds of /sit to sit Currently in 2021 classic: 3 self crits in 269 seconds of /sit to sit 12 seconds blizzlike vs 269 seconds… Please fix.
