Dear ZOS,
please roll back the changes to ultimate cast times.
It is bad enough that your servers can't handle more than 5 players in a given area. But it is ridiculous how low the hit rate on melee ultimates has become after the new patch. In prime time and lag I get less than estimated 20% successful hits.
And I don't mean the case when a skillful player dodges or cloaks my ultimate. The servers just aren't fast enough to register the player positions. Ultimate gets consumed without hitting anyone but the air.
It's a terrible change that doesn't promote skillful play but randomness and frustration.

✭✭Or instead of reverting it and letting DBoS stay broken OP, you should ask them to, I don't know...fix the servers since its not the only ult that behaves like that during "prime time," nearly all of them bug out in one form or another. Why should the ult of your choice get preferrential treatment. All get no cast time and same cancelling or none.1 -

He's probably talking about the targeting bug, you know the same one that has affected destro and resto heavy since Summerset and also makes ranged light attacks and force pulse mysteriously do no damage. That bug got worse this patch and ZOS does need to look into targeting and collision since its buggy on many regular skills as well (like rune cage).2 -
DJfriede✭✭✭✭✭I did say nothing about bar swapping or using Dawnbreaker.
In my case it is soul harvest or onslaught.3 -

Happens with bow too. I didn't catch a video of it but I was holding down attack on a resource mage guard and letting the heavy attacks go off. With no cursor movement, character movement, or movement from the target that is clearly in my reticle while simply holding down left click a solid 1/5 of my attacks would just vanish into thin air. Went back and did it again at a different resource with the same results.Abhaya - PC NA - Ebonheart Pact
