Making this Thread to report all bugs i am aware of on warlocks of World of Warcraft Retail, including new bugs found in it’s 11.1 PTR.
First, I will list the newer bugs and then re-list any bugs i am aware and may have reported in the past but have not been yet fixed.
1 - Destruction Warlock New Talents [ Demonfire Infusion] and [Dimensional Ripper] proc-chances are nowhere close to what tooltip description points.
- Chance to Proc on Demonfire Infusion from Wither are 25%, might be possible that the chance to proc from Incinerate is also applying to the Wither ticks.
- Chance to Proc on Demonfire Infusion with Immolate seems to be normal.
- Chance to Proc from Dimensional Ripper is more like 2%, i am not sure of what is happening here.
- Obs: By proc-chance i mean the representation of triggers per events (4 ticks = 1 proc) as the mechanism is probably some accumulator or similar system.
2 - Affliction Tierset [4] for 11.1 Does not work.
- As stated, the proc for [4] currently is non functional, this happens because it’s attempting to spread the traditional Unstable Agony who have a target limit of 1 and not the new version created for 11.1 (who might still have this target limit?we can’t test this yet).
- tierset seems to be missing periodic proc flags, meaning it can’t proc from ticks, this will harm affliction-proc chances given so much of its damage events are dots (things like Drain Soul, Soul Rot, Vile Taint, Agony, UA, Corruption won’t allow it to proc).
- Tierset also have no periodic damage modifier effect in its [4] currently, maybe its a server-sided effect but might be why it don’t boost the damage of UA?
3 - Destruction Tierset currently can’t be tested on regular, non PVP target dummies.
- The proc mechanism is tied to enemies who are currently in combat, and because most target dummies who aren’t PVP ones can’t be “in combat”, the proc for the tierset [2] just won’t happen.
4 - The Tierset proc who happens from Infernal will fire more than 12(14) bolts.
- Currently, the version of the [2] proc who happens from Infernal will scale with haste, allowing a single Infernal to shoot up to 30 demonfire bolts instead of the intended 12 (without talent) or 14 (with talent).
5 - Demonology Greater Dreadstalkers sometimes won’t jump to the target when it proc, i am not sure if this happens to specific spells who don’t have targets (Vilefiend, Tyrant) or can happen in any and its just a pathing issue.
6 - Greater Dreadstalker is not affected by the Houndmasters Gambit dreadstalker buff.
Old Bug 1 - Among the Demonic Tyrant effects there is a 100% resource cost reduction who is meant to affect 10/15 Wild Imps upon the cast of Demonic Tyrant, but, due to changes made during 10.2 this have in the past affected Primary Pet Felguard as well.
Currently, this issue seems to be affecting the Grimoire Felguard as well, allowing him to constantly spam Legion Strike while Tyrant is active.
Obs: in case this bug is hotfixed, it will represent a substantial nerf to Grimoire Felguard.
Old Bug 2 - Under certain(Resummoning the pet) circunstances you can have the Class Talent Demonic Inspiration double-dip, allowing your primary pet to benefit from 10% haste increase instead of 5% haste increase.
Old Bug 3 - Channel Demonfire Sometimes is not avaliable to cast even if you have Immolate/Wither Active still a thing, very likely to happen all over the place on 11.1 due to the tierset extending immolates.
Old Bug 4 - As hellcaller, when you cast Havoc any spell you cast will apply/refresh Wither on the target, its very weird behavior.
This is a workaround done in beta because back then Wither didn’t get replicated by Havoc.
Old Bug 5 - Infernal bolt does not get replicated by havoc, this is an issue who have been a thing since TWW beta.
Old Bug 6 - the damage reduction effect of Havoc will still be active for certain spells (infernal bolt, shadowburn, ruination) even if you swap targets with it.
Chances are the way this spells got coded is making them look as if they werent casted directly on the target similar to how copies do making them only deal the 60% damage dealt from havoc instead of a 100% effect like it should when casted directly.
Old Bug 7 - Refreshing/applying wither a second time before it gains any stack don’t count for pandemic.
Old Bug 8 - When you refresh wither you restart the “tick clock”, meaning every time you refresh Wither during the fight, you can potentially lose 1 tick of damage.
Old Bug 9 - [Warlock][Diabolist] Infernal Machine won't always reduce the duration of Diabolic Ritual still exists on 11.1 PTR
This issues seems to happen because the shard spenders of Demo aren’t direct damage but instead triggers for additional effects who are the damage dealing (summon vilefiend, summon dreadstalkers, create a projectile who will trigger the damage effect of hog).
Old Bug 10 - the behavior of Shared Fate (Soul Harvester talent) is quite different from the tooltip behavior describes, instead of applying the effect on 1 target who deals damage to all in 8 yards, it apply single target effects on all targets in 8 yard.
Old Bug 11 - Grimoire Felguard currently is not benefiting of the pet avoidance meaning AOE effects in raid can oneshot him mid duration.
Old Bug 12 - Wither triggers Nightfall at a higher rate than Corruption with multiple targets, this means Nightfall does not have the Target Diminishin return associated with Wither, only to corruption, this means this talent have a higher proc-chance at aoe for Hellcaller Affliction than intended.
Old Bug 13 - Perpetual Unstability and Improved Malefic Rapture reduce the cast time of those spells to bellow the GCD, but does not adjust the GCD to allow any form of cast per minute benefit.
This is it for now, for the duration of PTR i might update this thread with new bugs i find or older ones who i previously believed fixed but might not be/returned.
