problem with SAP!!!

[deotor 0]

Hello! When I using sap on a mob, for some reason I go out of invisibility. Someone faced with a similar problem?

That's how it works in vanilla. You have to take sub talents (2/2) to avoid breaking stealth with sap.

3/3 Improved Sap at Tier 4 in Subtlety is what gives you a 90% chance to remain in Stealth after use of Sap.  Without those talent points, Sap will break Stealth every time it is used.

sap rank 3 (45sec) breaks earlier in pvp is that normal?

if yes then what is length of time a target will repain saped in pvp?

@Depressions I may be wrong (someone feel free to correct me) but certain CC effects in pvp have what's called a "heartbeat break" or something of that nature. This means that on every tick of a fear or sap there is a chance that the effect will break early, regardless of not being damaged.

The other explanation could be if your target was already CC'd under the same category of a disable, and the diminishing return is effecting the duration.

I just had a -8 PvE mob break Sap in under 10 seconds after I had used Vanish to reopen (with Ambush) on a completely different mob nearby.  So I'm wondering if the "heartbeat break" you're referencing is limited to PvP, since it appears to also be operating to help break Sap in PvE.

If you vanish while a npc is sapped it removes the sap
