Remove Precog from the game its training wheels for any casters… and punishes any non-caster…u are risking giving someone cc immunity + 15% haste for 5 second in benefit of kicking them for 3 sec giving them the most op ability in the game AKA Precog.

Must suck having to think before trying to shut down a healer. Sucks there’s consequences to bad timing.

lol just dont miss kick
The issue is not that people “misclick”, but that in arena when 2 people interrupt an important cast, the caster always gets precognition from the second interrupt. There’s nothing you can do as you can’t know if the healer or the other DPS will interrupt. If you decide not to interrupt, the other person may think you’ll be interrupting, and the cast will go off. If you do interrupt, the other person may think you won’t interrupt and you both do…
It’s a silly mechanic. It can only be avoided in premade arena groups when you have comms and can call out kicks. But in solo shuffle, normal arenas, skirmishes where you play with random people, 90% of the important spells get kicked by anyone who has an interrupt and they always get precognition, not for juking, but just for casting their spells.

Luckily rated pvp (3v3 and 2v2 to an extent) is all that matters so overlapping interrupts in random bgs or whatever is no biggie at all.
It’s no biggie, that’s correct.
I’m arguing it’s not a good mechanic in principle, as you get punished by it even if you did nothing wrong.

But you only get “punished” when playing random bgs and meme shuffle. Who cares?
Stop kicking nothing and its not a problem. You talk about training wheels, but theyre just succesfully fake casting. You know how to win? Never kick, theyll forever be fake casting. EZ

precog should be removed asap and if only made exclusive for healers
melee kick going to 3sec and crit damage going to 150% is affecting casters much more than it does melee. Don’t need super broken precog on top of that or give melee a similar mechanic for hitting ur kicks bcuz nowadays hitting ur kick doesnt rlly matter anymore against the majority of the casters cuz they have 2 or multiple spell schools anyway
even the best players in this game miss their kick and thinking that “just dont miss ur kick” is a solution ur literally fried
wouldnt people still overlap kicks in shuffle constant?
even if either of them didnt get juked both have the same idea to kick something and other were faster than other and then the other will give him massive coc
As if well over half the viable melee aren’t capable of instantaneously warping to a pillar within a GCD if they’re too dribble to land a kick anyway kek.
Watching DKs run over Priests in Cata with Necrotic Strike due to this very interaction will always be funny to me. It’s a shame that you stopped seeing people fake casting themselves to death not long after that when cast interruption became a one-sided affair.

Keep precog. But make kick a silence effect if landed correctly. Precog + multiple schools is too much.
Which is useless because you’re locked out for most of the duration of precog.
Regarding topic: aww, can’t just throw some random micro cc after missing kick to still deny casting despite being faked? I am so sowwy.

Don’t know why are you all bashing on the OP, with 10.1. changes to interrupts and prec, it will absolutely be OP.
Somethings needs to go, either reduce the duration of prec or remove the haste buff.
I think theyll be adding more ‘embellishments’ for crafted gear when precog goes on there instead. So imagine melee getting immunity to movement effects and a speed increase after theyre rooted once or something… or a root resets a major movement ability. What else could be good for melee/non casters…?
40 yard range Keefer’s effect on the next ability requiring melee range following being afflicted by a slow or root with no internal CD.
Do it Blizzard.

No idea but the only reason I got elite in shuffle on my lock is because I kept baiting their kicks until I got pregoc which allowed me to free cast chaos bolts
