Why do some people use interrupts?

[Miraari-sisters-of-elune]

Yes OP is a well known troll. I too now fail to believe anyone could in good faith be that obtuse.

[Kadaashi-malganis]

well that explains it. im rarely on the forums lmfao

Basically, this is just me noticing that I’m once again a weirdo

That was never in question bud lol

@Shreds-wyrmrest-accord

But why would you interrupt a quest mob while you’re collecting 12 of their hearts?

That seems so incredibly annoying.

Annoying for the enemy getting interrupted maybe.

Do you like letting them hit you with their easily interruptable abilities? Are you into masochism?

[Greymarc-amanthul]

To break channeled spells that drain my Wrathguard of his life. Him dying is almost as inconvenient as having to use Health Funnel just to keep him alive is.

[Gurgthock-area-52]

i have interrupts bound to Q

[Shreds-wyrmrest-accord (Shreds)]

That’s my Blade Dance.

[Gurgthock-area-52]

my blade dance is R

eye beam is E

[Pinar-stormrage (Pinar)]

I have mine bound to Y because WHY are you casting?

[Giza-hyjal (Giza)]

We can’t all be DH’s

@Shreds-wyrmrest-accord

As for me, I’ve never had an interrupt on my bar and never will. Except for Arcane Torrent and Haymaker, of course. I use those interrupts for their secondary benefit (resource restoration & knockback, respectively).

Appreciate you sharing that. At least now I know to keep you out of a group in the off chance you wind up in a random with me as you just openly admitted you’re too damn lazy to pull your weight.

[Uzukara-illidan (Uzukara)]

Because it’s more annoying to spend more time fighting them if they heal, getting feared, or running back to your corpse.

DH gets resources from interrupts, seems silly not to.

@Shreds-wyrmrest-accord

Have you seen people doing this? Why do you think they do it?

Practice doesn’t make perfect, perfect practice makes perfect.

Why teach yourself bad habits by being half-arsed in some content.

@Shreds-wyrmrest-accord

I feel like the game would be better if interrupts were disabled outside of PvP and raids were just rebalanced around their removal

Sounds boring.

[Pizzashammy-area-52]

The default nameplates show casts.

[Jaggér-area-52]

But but its a DPS loss! They could be hitting a damage dealing ability in that key press!! Da Meters!!!

I think by now everyone has tried to kill that one rare mob in ZM that requires stuns to stop it’s healing cast so you can kill it and had it just heal back up.

[Hawkéns-moon-guard]

i honestly want more than 1 interrupt, but i ain’t gonna make a thread about it.

[Shreds-wyrmrest-accord (Shreds)]

@Hawkéns-moon-guard

i honestly want more than 1 interrupt

I don’t even want one interrupt. I just wanna do my rotation without having to watch for stuff. It annoys me when I have to move, but that’s sadly part of the game. Having to interrupt is just too sweaty for my playstyle.

[Warp-hakkar]

Sometimes the spells the mobs cast are super annoying

[Ventorath-wyrmrest-accord]

@Rabititus-shuhalo

It becomes part of your rotation.

Just add a damage bonus to all interrupts so people ACTUALLY want to use them.
It’ll create a separate problem of “everyone popped their interrupt on the first cast”, but I’d rather have a group struggle because everyone was too eager to interrupt than have a group struggle because they’ve all taken it off their bar for some reason.

[Phodge-blood-furnace]

@Ventorath-wyrmrest-accord

Just add a damage bonus to all interrupts so people ACTUALLY want to use them.

Or stop measuring value to every group solely by the DPS meters.
