Mod disclaimer: this thread has been made for the SOLE purpose of discussing the Legion new mechanics and testing them. To keep the discussion clean and on topic, strict moderation will be applied, removing unnecessary/offtopic posts. Check what you're going to say before posting and ask other people if in doubt.
Its that time again, Legion has a ton of mechanics that need to be tested so lets get testing.
How this thread works:
Bold questions are considered unanswered or incompletely answered at all.
Answered questions in Black have been answered during the most recent build.
Answered questions in Red were answered during a previous build and may need to be rechecked.
How to answer a question:
-Provide logs, video or screenshot evidence with appropriate analysis as needed showing an answer. For relatively simple mechanics that can be tested easily I will accept assertions without evidence but this is only for the most trivially tested mechanics.
-If you disagree with a currently accepted answer please provide counter evidence in the form of the above.
-Remember tooltips lie.
This is list of questions I think are relevant, if you think I've missed something let me know.

9) Does Hidden Blade gurantee a Saber Slash proc or just a second strike?
10) What are the proc mechanics of Greed? (Spell data says 35%)
11) How does Blurred Time work?
For the duration of AR every CD impacted goes to 60% duration. Once AR ends all CDs revert to normal cooldown based on the percent of time that has passed. This means a CD during AR is reduced by at most 10 seconds.
Example: Marked for Death has 50 seconds left on its 60 second cooldown, when AR is cast that becomes 30 seconds left on a 36 second cooldown. When AR ends MFD will have 15 seconds left on its 36 second cooldown or 41.67% of cooldown remaining, so MfD will return to 25 seconds remaining on a 60 second cooldown.
