I'm gonna have to take a cue from Haynar and start making people stand in the corner.

I don't follow. Did I miss some patch notes about this somewhere?

Right, so the issue was apparently that a melee pushback system wasn't working, so P99 instead used to have a straight-up chance of interrupt per hit. With this system, my ogre was not being interrupted by melee from the front, ever. Then when I made this thread, the melee pushback system was apparently put in, and my ogre started getting interrupted from the front. And now he's not anymore. I still don't really understand what's going on and what the intended behavior is. Are ogres supposed to get spell interrupted from the front by melee attacks, or not? (To reiterate, I'm talking about both bash and normal melee attacks; bash not stunning from the front has been working the whole time.)

It was a joke. Stand in the corner.

I CAN NEVER TELL WITH YOU ;_;

Update on this: currently, none of my casters appear to be getting interrupted by melee (unless they get stunned by bash). Not even a 'you regain concentration' message. Can anyone confirm this?

I haven't gotten a "you regain concentration.." message in all the 16 levels that my enchanter has been around. Should probably be looked into.

In 404,022 lines of combat logging (54MB), I have never received a "regain concentration" message. This log spans 6/28/2010-Present.

I've gotten plenty of them, just not as of late. Used to be that I'd get them on casters other than my ogre shaman, then my ogre shaman started getting them, now no one seems to get them.
