Troll Racial: Berserking

[Voodoomaniac]

What is the bug?
Berserking does not increase casting speed correctly and nor does it scale as intended with less % health. Note that the MELEE part of Berserking works as intended with a small exception for speed % at full health.

What kind of bug is it? (Quest, Class, Spell, PvE)
Racial.

How can you reproduce it?
Step 1:Create a troll character - Must be a caster.
Step 2: Activate Berserking at 100% health. A 3 second cast spell shall now take 2,7 seconds to cast.
Step 3: Take damage so you are under 40% of total health, now activate berserking. The 3 second cast spell shall now take 2,1 seconds to cast.

Please describe, in detail, what is suppose to occur when this bug happens:
There is no scaling with the total % health for spells, however there is for melee. When Berserking is activated under 40% health the haste granted shall always be 30% for 10 seconds. When activated at 100% it shall be 10%.

Please describe, in detail, what happens when it bugs up, and how it's malfunctioning:
The cooldown and spell is activated normally but only the melee part will gain increased effect from low % health while the spell side of the racial will not. The spell casting speed decrease of the racial is not even accurate when at 100% health. It makes a 3 second spell cast to take 2,86 seconds to cast instead of 2,7.

Evidence providing proof of bug:

http://i.imgur.com/mUNun7n.jpg - (At 100% with Berserking activated) - It shall be 1,8 yet it is 1,72...
http://i.imgur.com/AZEv7r9.jpg - (My attack speed at 40% during racial, works as intended)

http://i.imgur.com/81XBGXd.jpg - (My casting speed at 100% health)
http://i.imgur.com/sJ2a1ML.jpg - (My casting speed is still the same as when at 100% health, also note that the 10% effect is not even 10%, it is less than that).

In conclusion: The melee side of the Berserking racial is scaling depending on % of total health. However it grants slighty too much speed.
The spell side is far worse. Even at 100% health the increased speed % is not correct (Was a 2,86 sec cast when it should have been a 2,7 sec cast).
It also does NOT scale depending on total health %. It is always the same no matter the health.

On behalf of us few troll players I hope you can restore our lost honor by fixing this racial once and for all.
Sincerely yours

I know of that report but if you read carefully what I wrote Gentle, you will see that the MELEE part of Berserking works (a bit too well) but not the casting part, thus this bug is still not resolved.

As for the tooltip, no it syncs with the casting timer. The tooltip for the melee part of the spell works correctly.

On the old thread the screenshots I posted were to prove the exact same thing: the melee bonus is working well with different % of HPs but the casting one isn't.
Itslovelol answered it was working, unlike the tooltip which doesn't show the correct numbers.
Thus, to prove that there is really a bug, I guess you should take screenshots with an addon like Quartz for the casting time on bars and see if it's the spell or the tooltip which is wrong.

However, I didn't see that the melee bonus was higher than what it should be. I guess that Itslovelol will finally have some work on this racial. ;)

I have used Xperl, Quartz, NEC and normal ingame cast bar to check the time. I even took time on a timer IRL and the results were the same - the tooltip is correct and the racial is still broken. It sounds to me like Itslovelol did not check this at all, for it is so easy to see how broken it is.

As for the melee part. I ran a long check of it and it is slightly more than it should be. It is 1,39 at top scaling instead of 1,4. Although might not be relevant.

However it is so easy to see it is not working. Just make a troll mage, spec into Pyroblast, get under 40% health and then see if it takes roughly 4 seconds (4,2 is exact timer) or if it takes around 5,5+.

Fixed.
