Have they confirmed if this is a bug or was in Vanilla? I tested myself and there’s definitely pushback suffered when you take damage. Particularly melee damage. Not sure on ranged.

I don’t remember wands having pushback i vanilla.

I also don’t remember it being so hard to stop shooting them to cast a spell, either. Something is off with wands.

Wand pushback was a thing in vanilla.

Bump.

Shoot is basically the same mechanic as autoattack. It does not “cast” as people keep saying. The animation may get delayed from taking damage, but there is no “pushback” I don’t know where people are getting this idea from.

if Shoot actually is suffering pushback it is a bug

I’m just gonna requote myself as a bump in case anyone is still confused

I don’t even play a caster so this doesn’t affect me

Doesn’t just apply to wands, ranged weapons (excluding thrown I think) suffer the same pushback.

Here we are in Nov. and getting pushback with a wand, can a blue confirm?

I thought it was working as intended…

You also /cast autoattack.

Is that a spellcast, too?
