MD randomly stops working. You can spam the button without a global cooldown and your character is playing out the full cast animation, but there is no threat transfer or a buff associated with it. It happens very often and if it starts working after a relog or rezone, it quickly breaks again.
Also FD doesn’t work 2/3 of the time against Shadowlands mobs. Anyone experienced any of this? It feels really frustrating in combination with how weak the pets are and how long it takes for a revive to finish. I don’t know what caused it but both started occurring after my first Torgast run.
Not seeing either of those problems.
Im moreso having problems with the fact that your pets feel like they’re made out of paper and lose 5-22% health from world-trash mob basic attacks.
Combine that with them having problems holding threat in AoE pulls if you dont use your misdirect and dont spam mend them and here you are wiping every so often because you didnt pay attention for a few seconds while pulling 3 trash mobs.
Maybe it’ll get better the higher the gear gets but who knows.
So far my experience has been:
3mobs; mend and deal AoE. Seems okay-ish.
4-5mobs; use misdirect+mend. Seems rather bad, especially when your misdirect “runs out” you get hit by mobs because you pull aggro whysoever.
Im running a clefthoof and a corehound so in theory there shouldnt be a “your pets arent tanky enough” problem but oh well.
Not to forget to add something to the Feign Death matter.
For me it seems like you actually have to let the animation bring you to the ground for a second or two before it actually “counts” otherwise you’ll keep the aggro of mobs.
About the FD, the common mistake is rotating your character with RMB held down which breaks it early - it’s not that. MD is completely unreliable because just now it worked on one floor of Torgast and it broke the next one. Sometimes it can be cast on a party member but not the pet or vice versa, I’m not using a broken macro either.
Party member says how he can’t cast heals on my pet and that the target is obscured. This hidden aura seems to carry over out in the open world and is causing him similar problems.
