This is the only way that Blizzard will take attention. They do not follow D2JSP forums. If we want our voice to be heard, we need to comment on their own forums.

I tried for over a month before the game released. 100's of comments on my thread and 1000's of views. No word from blizzard. Good luck, but it seems it was a conscious thought-out decision to remove wsg.

Was wsg an intended mechanic with blizz north? Or a glitch/bug that was found by players?

I feel like in their eyes, they see it as a downgrade to add it back in the game.

It wasn't intended.

Pretty close to 0% chance it gets added back then.

The majority of player base will never encounter a situation where they get stunned to the point they would need wsg. (do any monsters in game ever swirl you? This is something I can't remember off top of my head)

You're correct in that there is very little chance of it coming back. Why do I think this? Well, because wsg was completely functional in the Alpha testing of the game. Fast forward to beta test 1, and WSG was seemingly patched out. Everything points to the fact that they intentionally removed it. Further, I've heard from a member of the community (i have no way to confirm how reliable this source is, obviously take this with a grain of salt) that they spoke with a friend who works on the dev team, and they are aware of WSG and intentionally removed it. Good luck boys, but I really don't see WSG coming back, as a large majority of the d2 playerbase in unaffected by it.

Yes actually; the thorned hulks (and variants) in a3, blunderbores in a3-a4(and later variants) and prolly other stuff too

Blizz got your money already - they dgaf

And these acts are basically skipped by pvmers.

The odds of someone being stun locked in pvm is extremely low.

I accepted on release day that this would be a pvm game. I'll probably just play on ladder resets for a couple weeks to farm fgs.

Pvp on d2r is really fun honestly, I actually enjoy it more than on legacy diablo 2. Higher frame rates and modern resolutions are a breath of fresh air to play on. There's just certain matchups right now which are not worth playing.


Thanks for sharing the link Bui! If anyone has other bugs I can add them to the list.
