C'thun beam delay

WoW Classic WoW Classic General Discussion
1

Why is the first C’thun Eye Beam ability not hitting as soon as a player gets in range of Cthun like back in the day.

So far from the chinese streams they get 10 seconds to run into C’thun room and move around before the first beam hits.

I’ve watched video from AQ Release, 1.12 and TBC. Even on retail BFA atm, the Eye Beam starts casting instantly when people enter the room.

Please fix this, its clearly a bug or error in the coding. Don’t give us C’thun in this poor state.

Here is C’thun run-in in 2020

14 seconds in according to the log

Here it is back in the day:

January 2007 (Weeks before TBC Release):

Here it is in 2008 (TBC)

All this leads me to believe:
This is a bug on your reference client that got fixed very fast back in the day. It should be fixed ASAP.

Please keep this post civil.

here is from original vanilla, what is blizzard doing??
and on top of that there is a combat drop when the eye dies, not sure if that is a bug or not.

The Chinese guilds could LITERALLY walk in without mounts and take their designated positions before beams started going out. What is this :frowning:

Something must be wrong with the Eye Beams on C’thun. Check old videos, he is normally spamming them. On this China version you see him pausing between each beam for 2-5 seconds.

The first beam is supposed to be casted instantly when someone enters the room.

Aside from the bug with the eye beam, classic raids simply aren’t hard altogether.

At this stage if blizzard aren’t showing literal video proof or a live stream with live logs everything they say is a lie

Please fix, releasing AQ40 in this state is a huge disappointment. You’ve had years to get it right.
