Broken Block

AshySamurai

Hi. Today was doing Vet dungeons and at last run I found a very frustrating bug!

I can't block. I play as a tank. So, yes, it's very important for me. I press RMB, my toon raise shield, but
1. I use combat cloud and I see, when I block and how much I block. So, due my last run, I haven't seen word Blocked (xxx).
2. No blocking sound. You know, you hear this sound every time you successfully blocking.
3. I get the same amount of damage when I blocking and when I'm not.

I tried to /reloadui, log off - doesn't helps me.

All fine with my hardware.

Already reported as a bug.

Only me have this bug?

I sometimes get it doing random stuff when I block, like opening my inventory or map.

I've also had this no blocking thing in some boss fights, it's a pain in the proverbial.

@AlexDougherty‌, you saying it like it's normal thing. Like "Move along, nothing to see here."

I didn't mean it like that, more like it's an occassional annoyance, please fix it. I was just saying it sometimes happens to me too.

Never once has this happened . Must be an addon I would guess

I've heard most bugs are due to addons. Or DKs play without addons?

DKs dont block. They are too busy chasing another poor victim.

Lol! You made my day!

Can anyone explain me how it could be addon false, please? Addons like Combat Cloud only show information, and only because of this addon I noticed that I dont block. BTW previously all works fine with all my addons and I didn't change anything(no install/uninstall/update). Also, this bug appear only on last run.

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

I have been having such a bug since release, when I block and hold the key, like 75% of the time, my char will raise its shield and directly drop it again, so I have to instantly release and repress block and hope it holds
this has been extremely frustrating being a tank in group content, so I dropped tank role and only do it when its aboslutely needed, because blocking a hard hitting attack from a boss in a VR dung or something, just to see it fail once again and taking the full blow isnt fun

also in pvp, when pressing block, alot of the time nothing happens, or like 10sec later, but well thats the whole pvp mess, cant weaponswap, cant block cant cc break, only 10sec later but well then youre already dead, gg

I have exactly this problem. In pvp my block gets broken every time I get attacked even in 1 v 1s. In big battles usually when I press block nothing happens. I'm really jealous of the DKs who can hold block indefinitely because I sure as hell can't. It sux being a DK who can't block!
Incidentally I've tanked some pve battles and same thing - though not as regular.

I don't use addons, and my system is fine, just this game.
