Anyone else have this problem with Cone of Cold?Follow

#1 Jul 14 2008 at 11:48 PM Rating: Decent
Ok I have 2 mages in my roster ones a gnome the other is a BE. Well when I got CoC on my BE I noticed something strange, the cone comes from the left side of the toon and not the front. On my gnome it comes out as advertised, straight ahead. Now this wouldn't be a problem except if a mob is like 5 yards away infront of me I can't hit him with CoC unless I turn my toon. Now what I want to know is if this just a BE thing or is my toon screwed up somehow?

Haven't encountered this problem myself, but I don't use CoC much anymore on my main nor have I played my BE in months. I may have to check it out.

Is it all the time or just some of the time? And is it a male BE or a female one?

I have never heard of this happening personally, but since undead is the only horde mage ive played, not much help, maybe something with ur addons is messing it up, tht would be the only thing i could think of

Yes I had this problem on my gnome earlier in PvP in Hellfire.

My BE is female and the problem happens all the time. Also the only addon I have is the Enchantrix suite.

Happens to me as well with my gnome. Ive noticed after several times that if im facing alittle ot the left or right of the mob in front of me and in order to get my char straight, i would hold down right click to make him look straight, cast my CoC but he'll cast to where he was facing before i changed the direction. Since then ive been using my arrow keys and havent had the issue since. Think part of it is short lag spikes while in Battle.

I haven't used CoC in months, but every time I used it beforehand (on my Undead Mage), it came out straight while standing still or moving backwards, but when running forwards, it sprayed towards the right.

I figured it was intended as if my mage's hand was angled while running rather than perfectly straight. An element of realism.

I have this issue as well; to the right, not the left nor front, while moving forwards. Human Mage. Strange indeed, but not that big a bother... considering I don't use CoC that much =P
