Ok, has this been a recent change somewhere and I missed the patch notes or something, or a ninja nerf? I used to be able to hit Weaponshield, and then Bulwark of the Brownies afterwards, enjoy the 3 minute buff icon, and when WS faded and I hit 50% health, then Brownie's Blessing protection would kick in. Now it seems to be overriding WS completely. Never used to do that. So much for using that macro key for awhile... [Sun Aug 16 22:20:21 2015] Your weapons begin to spin. [Sun Aug 16 22:20:21 2015] You begin casting Bulwark of the Brownies. [Sun Aug 16 22:20:21 2015] A shield of Brownie magic surrounds you. [Sun Aug 16 22:20:22 2015] Your weapons slow down. [Sun Aug 16 22:20:22 2015] You are shielded from all attacks! [Sun Aug 16 22:20:22 2015] The shielding fades away. [Tue Aug 18 22:41:36 2015] Your weapons begin to spin. [Tue Aug 18 22:41:36 2015] You begin casting Bulwark of the Brownies. [Tue Aug 18 22:41:36 2015] A shield of Brownie magic surrounds you. [Tue Aug 18 22:41:36 2015] Your weapons slow down. [Tue Aug 18 22:41:37 2015] You are shielded from all attacks! [Tue Aug 18 22:41:37 2015] The shielding fades away. [Mon Aug 31 21:10:19 2015] Your weapons begin to spin. [Mon Aug 31 21:10:20 2015] You begin casting Bulwark of the Brownies. [Mon Aug 31 21:10:20 2015] A shield of Brownie magic surrounds you. [Mon Aug 31 21:10:20 2015] Your weapons slow down. [Mon Aug 31 21:10:20 2015] You are shielded from all attacks! [Mon Aug 31 21:10:20 2015] The shielding fades away. So uh, is this as intended or what's the deal?
Line1=/timer 14100 Line2=/pause 01, /discipline Weapon Shield Line3=/alt act 306 Is the macro key I'm currently using. Maybe it's just because they're so close to one another, add more of a /pause for WS and BotB? Don't see why there's suddenly a stacking issue now though... grr.
Confirmed yeah. Meh. [Tue Sep 01 16:54:43 2015] Your weapons begin to spin. [Tue Sep 01 16:54:45 2015] You begin casting Bulwark of the Brownies. [Tue Sep 01 16:54:45 2015] A shield of Brownie magic surrounds you. [Tue Sep 01 16:54:49 2015] You begin casting Anticipated Shots Rk. III. (Here I took myself below 50%hp) [Tue Sep 01 16:54:49 2015] You are struck by a called shot. [Tue Sep 01 16:54:50 2015] Your weapons slow down. [Tue Sep 01 16:54:50 2015] You are shielded from all attacks!
Looks like it's an issue of a higher level spell (254 to 60) overwriting a spell/disc with the same effect 10000% parry to 10000% parry with a defensive jolt proc. If you are below 50% the doom will trigger. The behavior may have been different when it was level 255. 06/17/2015 - Ranger Level changed from '255' to '254' 05/19/2015 - Slot 6 changed from '' to 'Buff Stacking Blocker 1'
I've been using this macro for awhile, noticed my WS was dropping almost instantly few weeks ago, but chalked it up to things "working as intended" at the time. Finally got tired of it after yesterday and I went log hunting to see wtf was going on. Here's the same logs as before in detail, only thing I removed was other people's hits and them being hit. Here, I took zero damage from anything, melee or spell damage, and it still happened. Same thing here... Again... So I'm not even taking any damage to trigger Brownie's Blessing, at all... it's just straight overriding WS. Blessing shouldn't even be triggering until I'm under 50% health, but I'm not even taking damage, not even spell damage. If I got nuked, I could see it triggering, sure... but nothing.
