Okay so I was casually taking Bruma and ended up being attacked from the rear by a Templar. No biggie. I evade and kite for a bit to buff up and then go in to an attack. I Go stealth > Suprise Attack to the rear > He breaks free > I see my ult is up > As I'm closing the gap to activate Soul Tether the Templar blastsme with something idk > i then see my Ult gauge has been set down to 18??? wtf.

Do temps have any skills that remove Ult? Or is this just some lag or something?

    The Templar probably did nothing to remove your Ult. It probably just bugged out.

    Without a video of what happened, ideally from your perspective we can only guess unless someone has had a similar experience with their Soul Tether and figured out what happened. Sorry.

    Ultimates firing off without animation can happen a lot, even more so in lagg.
    Also templars can cleanse the life drain beam of soul tether.

    Has happened to me occasionally, it happens when you get CC'ed a split millisecond after activating your ultimate. It consumes the ultimate, but you get CC'ed and the animation fails to trigger. It looks like the entire ultimate fails, and its possible that is true especially considering lag. It's also possible the damage did go through.
    I've also had targeted single damage ultimates like Onslaught fail as follows; target is in range, the ultimate fires but somehow due to latency the player is just outside of range and you just whack the air.

    Thanks! That really helps!

    Thats the first time it's ever happened to me so I wasn't sure what had happened.

    You could’ve los bugged it out too. For example if you are by standing in front of a pole and try to dawnbreaker it’ll end up being a wasted ult.

    This. The ultimate you used does some direct damage and then you tap people’s health. The health tap part can be cleansed.
    Looking for any guildies I used to play with:
    Havoc Warhammer - Alair
    LoC EQ2 - Mayi and Iskiab
    PRX and Tabula Rasa - Rift - Iskiab
    Or anyone else I used to play games with in guilds I’ve forgotten
