WoW WotLK Classic: There is no CD reset for these spells like in retail
by Karsten Scholz – The Blizzard developers now have in detail revealed which skill cooldowns will not automatically reset after a wipe or defeat of a boss in WoW: Wrath of the Lich King Classic.
- Reincarnation
- Ritual of Damnation
- Army of the Dead
The exceptions to the rule
A few hours ago, Aggend spoke up again and explained in detail how – as of now – the exceptions look in detail. The following abilities of your heroes will NOT reset automatically after the end of a boss encounter:
- laying on of hands
85440Astral Recall
85440Fire Elemental Totem
Earth Elemental Totem
85440
Blizzard recognizes that players will be looking for ways to reduce their skill cooldowns reset early even during a fight. In retail WoW, this was always a problem in the past, and there were probably already first successful attempts in the beta of WotLK Classic (via Sarthe).
Therefore, Aggend subsequently explained that protective mechanisms had been installed. These are intended to prevent a hunter or other class that can quickly and safely exit combat from repeatedly attacking a boss and exiting combat to reset the cooldowns. The developer did not want to reveal exactly how this works for reasons.
