[REJECTED] [Mage][Fire]Meteor impact hitbox.

[gabytzu339]

WoW Freakz spell link: https://www.wow-freakz.com/spells.php?spell=153561&&name=meteor
Bug description: There's a lot of situations where meteor fails to hit the target but meteor's burn does damage even though there's been no movement in that time. Easiest encounter to try this on is eye of azshara, i almost never managed to hit meteor on that target, however the burn never fails to hit.
Proof: -

[Quicksand]

I need proof of this, because I just went to EoA and I have no problem hitting any mob at all, regardless of what terrain I'm trying on

[gabytzu339]

I'm gonna come with proof for both of the bug reports tomorrow most likely, sorry if it seems a waste of time right now, i've been encountering these over the course of two months i'm certain they are not fictional.

[Quicksand]

I know, I believe you, but I cannot fix it if I can't reproduce it

Here's one : https://youtube.com/watch?v=IphifPcKcwY:


Wrath of azshara doesn't ever move so its hitbox never modifies. It happened to me, and it happens quite frequently, with about every other encounter, but on this particular one meteor's initial blast seems impossible to hit and therefore it's easiest to prove that there's a problem with meteor's initial blast.

This boss seems an exception, try doing meteor on the edge (on land) of the water circle because if you meteor right in the middle of the pond there is a hole in there that goes down about 6-8 yards so thats how you probably miss that boss.

I said it's happened to me with almost every single boss over the course of last 2 months. I used this boss as example cause it's the easiest way to prove there's a problem with the meteor itself. It's clear there's a problem with wrath of azsara too, but meteor is the one that should be addressed in this topic.

PS : Of course i tried to land it on edge, actually that's how i use my meteor most of the time, i wouldn't come up with this 'bug' after a failed meteor on a boss with such faulty hitbox like this one, but even if i did, it still should be enough for anyone to figure out that there's something wrong about meteor since the burn does damage.

1st: Ground puddle aoes/burns like meteor afterburn are wonky like that where they can damage stuff even if they are higher or lower on the Z axis than the actual spell.

2nd: Wrath of azshara is not the easiest way to prove the problem with meteor. Why not just go to 1st boss (warlord parjesh or whatever) and drop meteor on him and film it? You said yourself that *it's happened to me with almost every single boss over the course of last 2 months*. So unless you do that, and it shows that indeed meteor initial impact is just not registering hits on bosses no matter what, im not buying your *PS*.

2 months is a long time, it didn't happen daily, maybe it happened more times in a day, maybe it happened more times at a boss, maybe not at all that day, i can't just go 20 times to some random boss and mean to hit meteor and see how many times it actually missed despite being clearly on its hitbox just to gather proof. I have no means of coming here with a fabricated bug as i see you're clearly going that way.

[Pinocchio Evreiesc]

Ok, i have a mage, give me all the bosses where this happened to you and i will go test myself and show results.

I'd start by playing fire as main spec but that wouldn't be enough, you'd also have to change your attitude, you're trying too hard to prove me wrong and this way spamming the topic uselessly. I don't care if you believe me or not and you're right to not believe since i haven't brought any relevant proof YET but that doesn't mean you can spam this topic uselessly.

This is not a debate topic. Start bringing proof or this will get rejected since it seems to be more of a PvE issue than with the spell itself.
Prove me wrong.

That's a PvE problem. In according with the situation that you describe, meteor work as intend.
To resolve Wrath of Azshara's Encounter problem they should make the "hole" under the boss less deep.

The real bug of meteor is this one about its radius:
