I was soloing a dungeon yesterday when I came across a boss that had an attack I wanted to interrupt every time, so I swapped some traits around and changed utils to ‘nade/PBR/FT for a good ~5 CCs every 20s, only to find that LPBR’s new daze does not interrupt or remove defiance stacks, despite showing the daze icon on the boss’ status bar.

Does anyone know if the daze effect is broken in PvP/WvW as well?

Did the boss have “defiant” up?

nly to find that LPBR’s new daze does not interrupt or remove defiance stacks

@Sins, curious what boss was it? And were you able to land other types of CCs? Sounds like it’s just funky if it’s showing an effect but getting none (like you get the icon but nothing happens). I do know some bosses will simply ignore CC, not just because of defiance but like even ignore it for defiant stripping purposes. Namely Turmaine and Balthazar are probably the 2 that give me the biggest headache over that.

It was Colossus Rumblus. I wanted to try a Rumblus + Howling King solo for lulz. Everything else (HT detonate, overcharged, PBR, air blast, crate) stripped defiance or interrupted as usual. None of which helped all that much anyway, as the rock summon didn’t go on cooldown and 9 times out of 10 he used it again within the next 5 seconds anyway.
