A really irritating bug has been happening to me in mythic+ keys lately.
In short, I cannot generate combo points until I leave combat.
I have played around the bug by simply vanishing and then my character works normally again. I have experienced this bug a couple of times and I can recall that it happened once in Halls of Atonement and twice in the last Gambit key that I did. In gambit it happened on one of the murloc pulls and later on the 6-pack(?) patrol in the last area.
I´ve been trying to figure out what is causing the bug, but all I can think of is that it has to do with my 4-set since I had not encountered the bug before I got it.
I wish I could provide more information, but I haven´t been able to take screenshots or videos as this bug has happened seemingly randomly in combat during timed keys.
As you can imagine the implications of this bug is gamebreaking as it lowers my dps on a group pull from perhaps 40k to 9k, since I cannot generate a single combo point.
I am venthyr sub rogue with 4-set.
That being said, has anyone else experienced this bug?
Happened to me again 2 or 3 times while doing 21+ sanguine dephts. After I leave combat I can generate combo points again, so when it happens I can vanish. However, both times my vanish was on CD and I was pretty much useless during those pulls.
Had this bug twice in Soleah’s Gamibit this ID. Both times on the second boss (Pirate Dragon). First key was a +21, which we aborted after my issues and because another guy died on the boss.
Next try on +20… We pulled the boss and I -again- got no combo points…
Vanish did not work… I ALT+F4 ed and relogged, got a combatrezz and could play afterwards… (Don’t know if dying would have been enough?)
Very sad for those keys and my group members, cause we were trying to push our limits there and the timer was tight… (Didn’t time those keys…)
This bug and all the ghost shadow strikes are starting to become a real pain.
I have also experienced ´ghost´ shadowstrikes where I see the animation and suffer the GCD of a shadowstrike, but without dealing any damage nor do I generate combo points. When it happens It often makes me botch my rotation because I rely on those combo points before using e.g. a spender or flagellation.
I figured that ghost shadow strikes might be more of a connection/server issue, but it is still very annoying. However, it is no where near as game breaking as the combo point bug.
