Honestly Im getting tired of it. Almost every week i find some new idiotic mechanic that is not working as it is supposed to. From the Vael energy bug, to the energy bug that does not give you energy on a tick but rather waits two ticks and then you get double the energy.
Im not going into all the other stuff i found, I already made “bug” posts about these and they went unadressed.
The most recent thing i found, which I hope someone in here can explain to me:
my mage friend and me just fought a priest / lock combo. Now my mage friend sheeped the priest, ranged the lock (who did not dispel priest) . So i sapped priest to extend cc time. Lock died, so I went back to priest and tried to resap (he mounted up at this point, trying to escape) and it just said: Immune. Note: Neither of us did grenade him, nobody goblin rocket helmed, nobody gouged. It was just 1 sheep, 1 sap. And after that he was immune. Now it isnt that he was in combat, because that does not trigger the “immune” tooltip. you just cant sap if hes in combat.
So he was immune. Now unless there is some gimmick after 15 years i dunno about and this dude apparently does, please enlighten me. Otherwise I assume that your client is absolute trash, and akin to a private server because your re-engineered legion client is nothing more than that.
Way back at the beginning of classic, in my first dungeon, an alchemist in the group gave me an Elixir of Giant Growth. I was like, thanks! And I read the text and saw they had nerfed it from 20 minutes, as it is in retail, to 2 minutes. And I said, “Why?”
I would excuse all this trash if it was free, but they charge 15 bucks a month. Its not accurate. Their reference client is either a big meme or they are inept on recreating the game with their legion client despite an almost infinite budget.
This has never happened to me and has never happened to anyone I know. Somewhere along the line, one of you must have messed up. You must have missed something, lost track or miscalculated.
People in here telling me it was a fap, and that must be it, not understanding that fap does not not do anything vs sap and that sap is not a stun.
The only explanation would have been lip, but there was no animation. He did not drink anything. The only thing he did after the first sap broke was mount up. The log did not say anything either. And again, this isnt the only bug that is around that is weirdly connected to game mechanics that were never present in original vanilla, but rather later expansions.
Edit: I would usually question myself first but what i experience in this client on a weekly basis is hilariously bad.
I fireblast a rogue in stealth the other day and it went on cool down.
I also heard the ignite animation go off (he and I were the only 2 people fighting on the screen).
Due to batching, the sap goes off but he takes no damage from fireblast and isn’t afflicted by ignite (despite me hearing the sound effect for it trigger).
