Default Night Strike query

Yo fellow songsters,

Am getting sick of Night Strike.

Get into position behind a mob, hit 'Bump' and Nightstrike
hasn't become highlighted

This happens perhaps 10% - 15% of the time.

My question is WHY ???

Anyone else experience this and know the solution ?

It seriously messes with your parse

Perhaps you are getting an auto attack between your Bump and your Nightstrike?

Yeah most likely your bump misses. Auto attack stops while stealthed so thats not an issue.

Read that... Bump will get parried or will miss (too often for my liking) but yeah... that would be the most logical reason for the issue you are seeing... other then that anything else that will break stealth after you land bump will also cause this ti happen.

Cheers,

Cant see how the 'Bump' is being parried as I get coin, and end up stealthed. And Nightstrike should be available as I am in position and Steathed.

Feck knows lol.

But thanks for the replies and feedback.

Just frustrates me

Maybe you Are taking damage causing you to drop stealth before you can hit Night Strike?

Was wondering the same thing. But when it happens and I moved back a bit ...just to check - am stealthed. No Night Strike available though.

I never get the problem if I hit 'Shroud'. But that takes ages to cast.
Besides, why bother with Bump if it wasn't supposed to do the same but steal coin and be quicker.

Most times after I hit bump I start spamming night strike because it doesn't usually highlight right away if there's lag (and boy is there lag) Just keep spamming it until you either see your autoattack fire or you are damn sure bump missed and you're not invis.

Make sure you don't have heroic opportunity starter macro'd to night strike. It'll break your stealth to cast it.

If that's not what it is, then it's getting parried, or you're taking AoE damage before you can click night strike.
