Hello gamers,
Question…
Soul Swaps tooltip says that it is a Copy → Paste mechanic. However Dispels and feign deaths override the Copy. Is this working as intended or is the copy mechanic supposed to hold the DoT’s regardless, because after a dispel or feign death agony and phantom singularity will still sometimes apply but UA / Corruption / Haunt / SR will not.
no one is going to answer. Unless its some elitest lock that got lucky and wants to talk down to you for trying to identify an issue.
I recently found a tooltip error that says our UA dispell does 360k dmg but would only do 200s no one batted an eye.
soul swap is really buggy sometimes… Personally I think it should NEVER lose the dots you already copied.
I hope they fix it or let us do some sort of soulburn soul swap that insta applies all dots to the target. That would be awesome.
like above, tooltip errors, soulswap bugs, the list goes on, but it will hopefully be fixed if they decide to finally do a rework.
It isn’t working as intended in my opinion. The capture is being overridden by a dispel that occurred after the copy capture and before the pasted swap so that almost all magic effects are dispelled before the swap even happens and only 1 pasted dot effect maybe occurs… This is one of many reasons why affliction is the worst pvp spec and it continues to get ignored by blizzard 
Lets see, we have the soul swap bug that wont copy UA. The soul swap bug that just will not copy at all for about 8 seconds (players and npcs) We have the soul swap bug that removes UA as if you were in a raid, but occurs in PvP.
This can literally be a game defining situation, and has given me tons of issues.
I have every instance of these glitches clipped to video and i always review them just to make sure im not crazy.
Turns out im still crazy, but im also right about every glitch ive mentioned
its definitely very buggy and not working as intended… also with the supposed buffs aff got in 10.1.5… Im actually doing significantly worse dps than pre 10.1.5 (in pvp at least)… Ive been waiting patiently since warlords of draenor for them to fix affliction… but im just at my breaking point… between the absolutely sht grade quality ui revamp that bugs out every time you change a talent and the lack of ability to fix aff Ive unsubbed… cant take it anymore.
we’re always waiting for some game changing update to occur, but it always seems worse after. Not only is everything broken, but melee still have the upper hand every pvp match. DH and warriors didnt get any buffs but they are killing me faster than ever, ironically.
I dont want to play spriest or any other class. I think its a sign that its time to throw in the towel at this point.
Warlord of Draenor was the best version of affliction, but it will never be like that again. Melee run this show
