Forever_Alone Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I've noticed Riot Strike is not only supposed to interrupt an ability, but prevent that ability being used for the next 4 second. I don't know whether it's a glitch or it just doesn't work but I'm constantly fighting healers when I Riot Strike their heals, and immediately after that they cast it again. There is no 4 second delay, and it's aggravating because it makes fighting healers impossible to do alone. They just sit there and keep healing themselves.

Rogmar Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Healers typically have 2 induction heals with similar animations/skill icons. If you interrupted one, they're probably using the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinterWraith Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 It only locks out the one ability they were casting, they can just switch over to one of their other heals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gyronamics Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 (edited) Also Combat Medics can spec their Reactive Shield to make them immune to interrupts so quite likely they DID totally ignore your Riot Strike and keep healing I use knockback and cryo nade to create time in which they cannot heal.

Riot Strike and other interupts can't be used on an immune target. It's really a friendly feature for interupters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cKerensky Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 It's annoying. In the situation where they can't be interrupted, I neural surge them, then walk back 10 meters. They cast, then I'll harpoon. There are still ways to interrupt, it's just...annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
