Bard AA Question

    I haven't played my 110 Bard in a couple of months. I logged back on and noticed that an AA hot key I had that I relabeled as "Group Mana" no longer worked, and doesn't bring me to the relevant listing in the AA window when right-clicked like the other hotkeys do. The AA is apparently gone.

    It had a long timeout on it, like 10-20 minutes I think, and when I hit it, it would give everyone in the group 20-30% of their mana back instantly. It was not the "rallying" AA's.

    Am I completely nuts or did they remove this AA? I looked at the patch noted for all of 2020 and never saw it mentioned.

    The only things I can think of that would do anything similar to that would be Reflexive Retort/Rejoinder or Dichotomic/Dissident Psalm.

    Reflexive would be a combat ability with a 10 minute cooldown, but I don't think it restores 20-30% mana.

    Dicho/Dissident is a song, but was nerfed awhile back so it does not restore nearly as much mana as it used to.

    I find in recent months that old hot buttons don't work sometimes. Even if the macro data is "correct", pushing the button does nothing. I have had to remake simple AA hot buttons like Lay On Hands and Glyph of Dragon Scales as well as actual macros. With the Glyph, I had assigned an icon and reused the same old hot button through many AA repurchases, But one time about 3 weeks it just didn't work anymore.

    In each case of UI failure, I had to make a new hot button to correct the problem. I blame the database migration that has been breaking and lagging out the game for months.

    This is bizarre and obscene.

    Thanks! It was Reflexive Rejoinder, a combat ability. The reason it wasn't working is that I was trying it in the guild lobby. I forgot it was also an attack. It does four slashing attacks and "restores a large amount of mana to your group".

    It may have only been 20-30% back in the early 100s with group gear, but it still gives the whole group a nice chunk of mana at 110. It is well worth a place on the hotbar.
