Vicecannon of Venom set....still bugged?

I had read that while the dot or heal is ticking you can't re-enter sneak. NB Cloak apparently still works, but wondered if the set is worth spending the Tel Var stones on.

    Last time I heard which was maybe 7-9 months ago it did not work with cloak even, so I did not bother trying that set. Maybe they fixed that now? If so it will be viable bcs you can not enter crouch stealth in combat anyway.

    Sheer venom and vicecannon are bugged in the way that when you proc them on a DK using volatile armor, it pulls you out of cloak on every dot tick. The dot is being reflected, when it should only reflect melee dmg. Its been bugged for ages. I have brought this to the attention of the devs so many times. Yet it is still not fixed.

    Not being able to enter crouch is nornal when you have dots ticking.

    it was also breaking NB cloak last time I tested (there were still some saying it wouldn't break cloak at that time... FALSE).

    Now THAT sucks. So Sheer Venom and Vicecannon are bugged, eh? And I was about to start grinding for the Sheer Venom set, too. Thanks for the detes. That's actually a rather serious bug. I may have to run my DK more with volatile armor up. Appreciate all the replies, guys.

    I've been using them extensively for the last three months both combined and paired with eternal hunt, Sheer venom only lasts for 6 seconds and does not break cloak and by the time you decide you need to run away or not its dot isn't up to prevent you from stealthing (I haven't noticed it pulling me out of stealth regardless but that's probably due to the reason above). Vice Cannon on the other hand is a much larger investment because it is fifteen seconds long and it Will break stealth as long as that green bubble is going. I've found that I can cloak with it active though.

    I use these sets. I can confirm that vicecannon, when used on a DK (using volatile armor) will pull you out of stealth and reflect vicecannon damage back to you....

    I can also now confirm that this set breaks Cloak while the DoT is procced. I will admit I had a tough time figuring out exactly what the other players were using to cause this, but it wasn't always DK's. I have quit using it for now.

    Folks have been asking about this for well over a year, maybe two now. No response at all.
