Frost Trap in PvP environment

Hello there,

so lately I've been playin quiet a lot of disc/mm in arenas, which was super fun as we are kinda seasoned players with high experience.
What we noticed though is that frost trap(slowing one, not the CC one) here on Warmane is kinda broken, in a bad way sadly. What I mean by it is that everytime someone gets a freedom or cloaks the trap it just completely disappears, and I'm not talking about "eating" the trap out before its laid on the ground, I'm talking about getting freedom lets say after 3-4 sec of it's proc, basically the trap gets laid out on the ground, u can see its effect on the ground and if someone gets a freedom or cloak it after 3-4 sec into its proc, it just completely disappears. Tested it numerous times in duels/happened more than it should in real arena games.

Now as a disc/mm players the frost trap is really important as its the only thing to keep a priest alive against any melees infact, withtout it there is no way to kite a warr lets say or anything else to be exact.

Maybe I misunderstand, but the trap fires as soon as someone comes close to it, and if that person is immune to that trap (think freedom, bubble, etc) or resists it (cloak of shadows) then it simply disappears without applying any effect to the player. That is as far as I know working as intended.

Yeah exactly, that's what I meant by "eating" the trap out before it gets triggered. I can understand and accept that logic completely.

But what happens 100 out of 100 tries is that a player gets trapped in frost(again the slowing one, not the CC one), player gets rooted, frost trap effect is active and visible on the ground. But then lets say after 2-3sec player gets a freedom or cloaks and the whole frost trap on the ground and its effect disappears. That's what I'm talking about.

I can pull up numerous replay IDs from the arena itself, but I guess it will be easier for others if I just record it and upload it once I get back from work.

See, indeed I misunderstood. I didn't read the first post well and I thought you meant the freezing one.

The behaviour that you describe does indeed sound like a bug. Maybe someone else can chime in about it.

I really hope so, because it's nearly impossible to peele your priest against decent melee comps without a frost trap, and man is it so frustrating to see your only way to survive disappear infront of your eyes just like that haha. I'll try to get some footage later this night.

But again, thanks for your input and not letting this post die out.
Cheers

Sounds like a bug to me.

Head over to https://www.warmane.com/bugtracker and look for bug report of the issue. If none exists, then make a new one and provide video link or set of screenshots showing it happening.
