Shaman totem tick bug

Post by Rodal »

Totems when placed down should tick instantly. This could mean instant fear 'dispell' from party members with tremor, 1 sec gcd poison dispell from party members/self with poison cleansing, instant slow on druid with earth bind etc. Some of them might be key components in certain arena situations.

I'm new to the server so I have no idea if issues like this will be dealt by, but wanted to make this thread anyway.

Cheers


edit: I tried my best to google the evidence for it:

http://www.wowwiki.com/Tremor_Totem

"This totem will immediately remove any applicable ailments when it is first down, then subsequently attempt to remove fear/sleep/charm effects every 3 seconds. " (not really tbc though)

http://www.wowhead.com/spell=8143/tremor-totem#comments

"Wasn't always perfect since it ticks only every 5 seconds but if you happen to be outside of fear range you can run in and stomp it - the first tick always happens on the totem cast..." (2007/04/17)

http://www.wowwiki.com/Earthbind_Totem

"as well as just before your enemy is about to run away. It takes a second to have its first effect, so you should drop it a couple seconds before you need it for best effect" and with the hotfix "(2009-04-17): "Earthen Power will now properly be applied on the first pulse of an Earthbind Totem."

Can't find a single site about the poison cleansing but it's the same deal.

how many years has it been since this has been known about zat?

not even sure if it's fixable, else Henhouse would have done the coding for it already, I'm sure.

Hufsa said he can easily fix it, I actually believe he already has a fix for it but it's just not getting implemented which I dont know the reason for. I might be wrong but what I am sure of is that Hufsa already has a couple of fixes done that are just not getting to sf.

It's one of the fixes I am getting from Hufsa, the only problem is that he is extremely busy so ... there is somewhat of a delay in getting these fixes from him.
