When I take the tallent “Carnage” the rage cost of rampage is 75, if I use rampage before i cap rage, everything works as normal, but if im not paying attention and accidently cap rage, it increases the cost of the next rampage. This continues until the cost of rampage goes above 100, then i can no longer use rampage.
This becomes even more problematic when i take “Frothing Berserker” because the cost of Rampage becomes 95, so its a lot more likely that I’ll cap rage before using Rampage. So, what happens is, I use Rampage once, then the cost goes up to 105 and I can never use it again while in that particular combat.
Also, whenever this happens, the rage sticks at 100, regardless of what other abilities I use.
Can a Blizz employee please respond to this, because i pretty much can’t play my warrior.
If this is really the case, that it actually prevents you from using an ability in combat…Id’s suggest opening a ticket AND filling in an in-game bugreport.
The moderators on the Forum can’t do much for you. Bug-report won’t help your char directly, so you do not have much more choice than opening a ticket and let a GM look into it.
(Did try to clear the cache, reset interface and all that? Even though it does not sound like it should help, you never know)
Is this occurring all the time or only in certain locations? I have a theory.
There’s a debuff in the 8.3 void invaded zone - Hysteria that is applied by literally anything that deals shadow damage. It increases the power cost of abilities by 3% per stack, meaning that at 12 stacks it makes Rampage cost more than the rage cap, rendering the ability unusable, with Frothing Berserker it only needs 3 stacks to make it unusable.
This only really affects Fury Warriors and Shadow Priests as they’re the only ones that expend most/all of a bar of resources for a single ability.
You know what… That might just be it. Now that I think of it, its only ever happened in Uldum, havent tested this theory, but I’m 99% sure you’re right. Thanks
There are different mobs in Uldum that increase the resource cost of your abilities. The debuff has the same icon as the human racial with a purple outline. These stack up to 10+ and by that point your Rampage will be unusable. It’s not a bug just a very unlucky debuff for fury warriors as rampage is basically the only thing that deals damage… on the bring side, it also gives a haste buff making your Bloodthirst have no cooldown so you can just spam that endlessly for permanent Enrage and Sudden Death procs
