Fix Vanish

[mrjoshua]

According to the ptr notes, "Invisibility: Can no longer be interrupted by a hostile action or damage done during the 3 second fade time, however an invisible mage can still be stunned or silenced." Why can't they do this for rogues so that vanish will actually work? I can't think of anything more infuriating than to being knocked out of my vanish immediately after popping it due to lag or whatnot. What do you guys think?

It was to fix Mages only threat reduction ability. But yes, this should be added for Rogues Vanish.

Oh would you stop crying about the vanish already and start learning how to use it properly.

It's not a question about using it properly in most cases. I guess it's easy for you to flame other people since you are obviously the god of wow. All I am saying is if this mechanic was added to vanish then it would not allow for lag or many other environmental factors to cause this ability to fail. Go back under your bridge.

I'm sure all the pallies would be really happy if their bubble failed like 50% of the time without them actually doing anything. Vanish breaks when autoattacking a target dummy, that is fery much broken.

This aint a blizzard forum, so qhy complain here? :

[Wikko]

Didn't they actually thought of putting a 0,5sec immunity when using vanish, not sure but I have a foggy vision about that in some patchnotes

Vanish IRL doesnt always work either, especially when several people are attacking you.

Simple sollution: use phasing technology to phase the rogue for 0.5 seconds. create a special plane where the rogue would be switched into it but he would see everyone else as usual.

[Vice]

lol simple

[SON!!!]

lol evry rogue complains about this prob but i can see ur point prity much any thing knocks u out of it its proly frustrating because u are useless with out beaing sneaky and what not so yea i would say fix it up that way u guys arent a deer cought in the head lights when a hunter sees u comin with track hidden

There are plenty of ways to kill you without stealth, I might add.

Ur trakturz stuck in thuh muuuuuuuuuuuuuuud.

No but seriously, If a hunter starts a shot rotation on you , a reset is IMPOSSIBLE due to fucking auto shot. It gets rather annoying ;D

Vanish doesn't work when you're under attack, attacks has been launched at you haven't taken them yet due to latency.

Your suggestion is nothing short of OP to hell however, as it would completely remove any need to clos-vanish vs classes who will attempt magical AoE to get the rogue out (mage, paladin, DK, shaman etc).

You're essentially asking for free immunity to hostile AoE action on vanish. That's not how it works.

Reading the thread title, i got nostalgia from Pre-TBC Official Rogue forums ;P

[Doddilus]

i would be happy if pets would stop chasing me to the end of the world and back

[apsilocybin]

Beyond the usual in combat vanish failures, i've experienced more than a few vanishes out of combat that simply don't do anything. at all.

What's being changed for mages has nothing to do with the problems that have plagued Vanish since day one.

[ugotganked]

Vanish really needs to be fixed... idk why not add something like feign death has so they drop target. Iv been fighting a DK and vanish as i jump through him and he will turn around and death coil me while having me targeted the whole time. :/ Or like the other day i was in Stocks leveling a wep skill and once i was done i figured i would just vanish and sprint out real quick but no vanish failed and instantly unstealthed.. >_>

It might have nothing to do with vanish but the fact Blizzard are adding any short duration immunity raises the question as to why the same hasn't been applied to Vanish.

How about giving bubble and iceblock a ~50% chance to just fail without any apparent reason.
Don't want that?
I thought so...
