[Warrior] Spell Reflection #18

Open Nadlek opened 5 years ago

Nadlek commented 5 years ago

Decription:

Does not reflect Multiple spells that finished casting while Spell Reflection (https://tbcdb.com/?spell=23920) is up Does not generate the threat it should

How it works:

Does only reflect the first Spell, even when multiple are in the air and valid to be reflected

Example No. 1 Caster 1 finishes cast and Cast1 is mid air You use Spell Reflection (https://tbcdb.com/?spell=23920) -> Caster 2 finishes cast and Cast2 is mid air Caster 3 finishes cast and Cast3 is mid air Caster 4 uses an instant, Cast4 gets reflected Cast1 projectile reaches tank -> should NOT get reflected Cast2 projectile reaches tank -> does NOT get reflected Cast3 projectile reaches tank -> does NOT get reflected

Example No. 2 You use Spell Reflection (https://tbcdb.com/?spell=23920) -> Caster 1 (Cast1) and Caster 2 (Cast2) finish their casts at the same time Cast1 projectile reaches tank -> gets reflected Cast2 projectile reaches tank -> does NOT get reflected

How it should work:

Caster 1 finishes cast and Cast1 is mid air You use Spell Reflection (https://tbcdb.com/?spell=23920) -> Caster 2 finishes cast and Cast2 is mid air Caster 3 finishes cast and Cast3 is mid air Caster 4 uses an instant, Cast4 gets reflected Cast1 projectile reaches tank -> should NOT get reflected Cast2 projectile reaches tank -> should get reflected Cast3 projectile reaches tank -> should get reflected

Also the user should generate threat of the cast(s) reflected, modified by skills/talents of the user (warrior), which would enable you tanking casters in packs only by spell reflecting

Bc icon Patch 2.1.0 (22-May-2007): Reflected spells generates threat as if the damage were dealt by a normal attack. Also, this threat is subject to the usual threat multipliers granted by Defensive Stance and/or Defiance. This change was not officially noted, but it has been confirmed by several players.

Something less known about Spell Reflection is its ability to reflect multiple spells if they are both cast while the buff is still active (i.e. leave the caster's hand). This makes it very useful when coupled with a charge, as it allows the warrior to reflect the initial spell from each casting mob simultaneously if their casts have the same length and start at the same time.

Even found a vid with an example

Like you did in the How it Works area, please describe the same way how its currently working when you test it in the # How it works: # part of the template.

i didnt read all this wall of text but spell reflect does not reflect spells after they have finished casting, such as this "in air" described. only if you reflect before the cast is over.
