Thread: Purge

Hi all,

I was just wondering if another WL had been having problems with Purge over the last few weeks. At first it was "jeez, I'm sure purge didn't work there", then it became "purge doesn't work everytime" and now it seems to happen more frequently (twice last night). Though, of course, in the bigger scheme of things it is no big deal but I'm starting to think there's a freep slow out there that the skill doesn't...well....purge. My theory at this point is that It's a champ slow but can't corroborate that at this point. Was talking to a same ranked WL as mine and she was saying it works everytime for her, but I am not imagining this. Is purge a skill that is working properly?

Thanks all in advance.

+1 on this. It's the same for reavers with Resilience. Turbine update skills, but then break it shortly after.

If you want to update/add new skills to impress your players, at least do it properly..

If skills are inducting or in animation whilst you use purge, they still apply. Same thing happens with Resilience, Brands, Cappy MH set etc.

I've pointed this out before. The problem with Purge is that, if you look carefully, as you hit the animation there is a brief moment where a buff appears under your name, this buff is not the immunity and it is there for about 0.9 seconds. During this buff I've noticed any slow can penetrate the WL's Purge, and the immunity does not remove the effect.

if someone slows you like an second before you pop it you still get the slow and it sucks.

This. And it is true for every similar effect such as Brands.

Ah ok...ty for the feedback all.
I knew it wasn't me going insane.

There are things in PvMP that are far more pressing and gamebreaking but it is a pain yes. Especially since I play sometimes under the notion that I'll be able to rely on it.

As for Turbine fixing it. I won't hold my breath.
