Evidence that bind wound shouldn't be possible while being attacked
This thread is for evidence I've found that you could not Bind Wound while in combat (this is different from *someone else* binding you while *you* are in combat, which I have seen evidence for).

I am unsure of the exact mechanism of failure, though a high susceptibility to mob push would make sense ("You have moved and your attempt to bandage has failed"). Why? Because of this post. Having DA up meant you were immune to mob push, so it would make sense that your attempt succeeded: Quote:
Though it could have also been triggered by mob bashes etc. Can't rule that out. Lastly, I am aware that absence of evidence isn't evidence of absence, but the fact that being able to bind wound while swinging melee weapons isn't talked about *anywhere* in-era that I have seen leads me to believe that being able to bind wounds while being hit/attacking is a dubious feature on P99. |
Another +1 for Bind Wound being very easy to interrupt by being moved around:

Here is a thread from MonklyBusiness (2001-2002) where people are discussing BW macros but nobody has suggested to do it while in combat.

Another post about an interruption in Luclin era, but would point to Bind Wound being at least as sensitive to movement as spellcasting for getting interrupted (I still see lots of people complaining about interrupts on spells when they suddenly stop running and cast): Quote:

Raster of Guk camp guide from 2001 where he discusses needing to be out of melee in order to bind himself:

Perhaps even one hit was enough to interrupt? |
I have distinct memory from back on Live in the Kunark era dueling a monk that was talking shit about rangers where I opened the duel by spamming my 5 Firestrike charges on him from Raincaller to make him shit his pants (because I am a little bitch who never accepts a duel unless I have a dirty trick up my sleeve to win lol), and then I landed a DoT to finish him off. He was frantically trying to Bind Wound to save himself from dying to the DoT and I kept interrupting him with single kicks until he keeled over.
I'm not sure if that helps since I have no logs or video or screenshots of this. This post just reminded me of that and made me chuckle. :) |
I'm willing to take a bind wound nerf off the back of that anecdote.
Monks have it coming. |
Strong evidence in this thread. Sounding like Bind Wound should have the same channeling check that using a clickable item on a Melee class has. IE any successful hit is a guaranteed interrupt.

Getting your research praised by Daldaen is a bit like having Arnie stop by your local gym and praise your squat technique.

It sounds like people didnt know it was possible (as it’s a bit tricky to figure out exactly how) not that it was actually impossible. Weak “evidence”
