roots/snares not dispelling

[Cwall 52.0]

have had several instances where root and snare stay on even after attempting to dispel them

no other buffs/debuffs were on me at the time

if you're going to have a resist system that promotes rootspam at least make it consistently dispellable

[Bamzal Sherbet]

please describe exactly what you were smoking at the time

I've had this happen with dots during classic. No dispel spell or pumice would remove druid dots at times. Possibly related.

Tried 3 nullifies and couldn't remove a breath of ro one time recently.

[nabsev]

I'm not sure if it's consistently broken or just bad variance but last 3 times I've had breath of ro land on top and wasn't able to dispell with cancel/nullify magic

[Bamzal Sherbet]

perhaps this has something to do with the bug that desyncs the clients version of the buff stack, and the servers version of the buff stack (Meaning the client shows Breath of Ro in top slot, but the server actually has it set being somewhere else in the stack).

I recall some nihi members discussing this and sounds like they could abuse i mean replicate the issue for u

[Nirgon]

If you click a buff off yourself and try to dispel afterwards, I think that breaks it.

[Cwall 52.0]

that's what i thought at one point, and then i tried replicating the bug with that idea but it dispelled the root normally

not really sure to be honest

shits classic

[Nirgon]

Uh... yeah I don't think so Smedy.

I'm going to try clicking off a buff and see if I get dispelled successfully in PvE.

That should get da fix train rollin'.

[Smedy]

Pretty sure nothings classic at this point dog, just saying shits classic whenever i hear a complaint cause that's what i do around here

hi everyone,

had two sorta strange situations today that I primarily wanted to see if anyone else had experienced.

1. I got splurted, and when I cast cancel magic on myself (a total of three times, splurt was in top slot) it dispelled other buffs, as if splurt were not MR based. I had people in guild tell me they were dispelling splurt with pumice as recently as yesterday (causing me to think it ought to still be working as normal)

2. I had a disease cloud on myself and got raptured -- i sat there for the full duration of rapture, while disease cloud continued to tick -- mez didn't break.

if anyone's got any corroborating experiences like or similar to this, would love to hear them!

[SamwiseRed]

the way i thought it worked was that cancel magic can only cancel low level spells. thats why casters get nullify then later annul or w/e to cancel high level buffs. no?

pumice, being nullify, can dispel higher level mr debuffs than cancel magic

[Nirgon]

Epics are in, hope you farmed all the stuff that was in game before its time line.

Have fun!

no announcement? or was it in game

[Tumdumm]

both these things have happened to me buddy
i usually blame hax for such things but who knows hehehe
think if that invisible necro dot lands in top slot you're screwed til you zone


rapture might be un'disease cloudable i dunno but yeah
haven't had the chance to "test" it out again if u know what i mean heheh

[Rettii]

weird

[Tumdumm]

confirmed can dispell splurt with regular cancel magic

[Tumdumm]

unless hax* (aka that invisible dot it fucks u up i swear, pell stuff behind the dot u see

[karsten]

i've been able to easily get out of rapture with disease cloud, and easily been able to dispel splurt before, is the thing

Had the same problem since launch with dispelling.
