What cast time abilities are Interruptible in PvP?

Since Uppercut is apparently uninterruptible, even though bashing/venom arrow/ crushing shock all say in their tooltips that they interrupt and stun players who are using cast time abilities, how many other skills are uninterruptible? My experience is only with a Nightblade DW in PvP.


These are the cast time abilities I've found so far and that have been provided by posters, bolded means they are interruptible, crossed means they are not.

List of Cast Time abilities:
Solar Flare (and Dark Flare morph)
Healing Ritual (and morphs)
Crystal Shard (and morphs apart from C Frag Proc)
Daedric Summons (summoning)
Feral Guardian (summoning)
Uppercut (and morphs)
Snipe (and morphs)
Force Siphon (and morphs)
Inevitable Detonation
Heavy Attacks

List of Channeled Abilities:
Dark Exchange (and Dark Deal morph)
Radiant Destruction (and morphs)
Rapid Fire (and Toxic Barrage Morph)
Soul Assault (and morphs)
Flurry (and morphs)


If these are really all the abilities that bashing and venom arrow/crushing shock actually work on in PvP, why have Interruptible attacks in PvP at all? Edit: they are very inconsistent with what can and cannot be interrupted...

    Is it? I've never seen it interrupted in PvP.
    It is I assure you, when fighting a heavy armour stam sorc the key to victory (apart from surviving their burst) is to drain their resources and bash their dark deal.

    Please stop bringing logic and discussion of actual skill into the forums. It might have an affect on the type of discussions we see.

    Yes back to raging and nerfing it is.

    To OP Proxy det is interruptible too but virtually no one uses that morph.

    Dark Flare is interruptable.
    Healing RItual is interruptable
    You can also interrupt a sorc that spawns its pets.
    Edit: Radiant Destruction too.

    Yep its more like pew pew and a hard stun at the right moment to win. Also, imagine if more attacks were interruptable...the complaints on forums....

    Everything apart from Uppercut because it's the only stamina spammable for Sorc's and DK's (apart from Flurry).

    Read the information that people reply in all your previous threads, everything is just being repeated 100 times and you still don't understand.

    Yea the morph which you place on a target, so rare I can't remember the name... it's either inevitable/proxy det.

    inevitable since if purged its detonated instantly :). It's quite useful for keep fights and zerg vs zerg but other than that meeh.

    Sorry, relatively new to the PvP game and all of its intricacies. So I'm starting to wonder why a lot of tooltips/functions are so inconsistent. A lot of this stuff isn't stated in the game at all so it isn't brought to my attention until I get something wrong.

    Take the executioner ability for 2H. I thought that I could interrupt players who were spamming that on me while I had low health, because it has a long animation time before it deals any damage. Buuut, I was wrong, apparently you can't actually interrupt the player performing executioner during that long-ass spin-around with any ability that says they interrupt attacks while they're casting an ability. Same thing with uppercut.

    Snipe is interruptible, by bash anyway. Perhaps it isn't interruptible via Crushing shock/venom arrow?
