HoJ lol wtf

[artass]

HoJ stun for 6sec and interupt spellcasting for 3sec lol wtf

just for mage cant blink when they stun lol relly useless

[lexonio]

Useless? THIS IS UBEEEEEEEEEER!

I mean, it is a nice addition - ever seen your HoJ removed by the trinket? Or lasting 1 second due to DR?

[artass]

why they dont make it a new spell it will be way better

[Rilec]

If something is immune to the stun portion, HoJ will still interrupt spellcasting. Nice PvE buff, still nice for PvP if some caster goes immune to stun via Diminishing Returns and they're halfway through casting something important.

[Nuronv]

Great change, just what they needed in fact. Just note it is an interupt not a 3 second silence

[Mysmere]

this answered a lot of my questions. thank you

[artass]

hoj is allredy an interupt i dont understand why they add interupt effect on it

[Nuronv]

Because you can't stun lots of Mobs/Bosses, but you can interupt then

[artass]

useless in pvp...

[Mysmere]

not useless in pvp O.o bad pally. bad. go think about it harder

[artass]

k explain me why its good in pvp

hoj stun for 6sec

[Mysmere]

dr buddddddy. never seen "immune" pop up on your screen?

[Rilec]

k explain me why its good in pvp

hoj stun for 6sec

it just prevent mage blink for 3 sec can you tell me another use for this

What part of this sentence do you not understand? Seriously, it's not that hard.

If something is immune to the stun portion, HoJ will still interrupt spellcasting. Nice PvE buff, still nice for PvP if some caster goes immune to stun via Diminishing Returns and they're halfway through casting something important.

Silence and Interrupt are not the same thing. Silence, you can bubble out of, or ice block, etc. Interrupts lock out the school of magic the caster was currently casting. If they weren't casting anything, interrupt portion does nothing.

So, if a mage is casting a fireball or not casting anything and you hoj, they CAN blink out of it.
If a mage is casting arcane missiles and you hoj, they CANT, because AM is arcane as is blink.
A nice scenario might be if you hot a holydin while it's casting, it can't bubble for 3 seconds. It can trinket, but can't do anything after that, etc.

[Mysmere]

does it say it just interrupts casting spell type? doesnt matter all too much except for blink...

[Arr0w]

if u can't see how useful this is in pve or pvp....god bless u

[Lexan]

awesome ability, before pally's were horible on bosses that neede dto be interupted since they are imune to stun, or most are anyway. This now gives pally's the ability to not only stun in pvp and trash in pve but also interupt spell cast by mobs that are imune to stun, this is a huge ability for pallys. People have been asking for an interupt for pally's, thank you very much blizzard for giving us this, it shows that you are listening.

"Stuns the target for 6 sec and interrupts spellcasting for 3 sec"
Its the same ability as before but with an ADDED ability. This won't work well against mages, but it will work great against healers or single school classes.

useless in pvp...

Are you serious?

Catch a mage on poly -> he can't blink
Catch him on frostbolt -> he can't iceblock
Catch a pally on holy light -> he can't bubble
I think also druids can't use barkskin if you catch them on cyclone.

If anyone uses their trinket to get out of the stun they are still interrupted, same thing if your HoJ is dispelled.

With all anti-stun talents reducing duration stuns will often last less than a second in PvP. Also, if the stun resists you still interrupt.

[Mysmere]

so if it says interrupts spellcasting, then thats all spells that caster has.

at no point does it say "school x" like counterspell does.

at least, thats my interpretation.
