The Problem: gargoyle strike casting time capped at 1 second even with all of haste buff applied on the DK (ie : unholy presence 15% haste, improved icy talon 20%, berserking troll racial 20%, bloodlust 30%, potion of speed 500 haste, enginering gloves enchant 340 haste), also the crit chances are so terrible because the ebon gargoyle did not follow the DK stats when casting it (my DK have 30% crit unbuffed yet the gargoyle strike only critted about 6% that's way too low)


How it should work: the ebon gargoyle should "snapshot" the DK stats while summoning it


How to reproduce: play DK, try to cast summon gargoyle with and without buff, the damage and the casting time are about the same


Character the bug occured on: any DK in general

Lots of known issue regarding to the base core (AC) about Gargoyle.

Please provide more wiki links regarding this spell for refrences.

Some information we found quoted this:
"The Ebon Gargoyle in World of Warcraft has a haste cap, similar to other creatures and player characters. The cap is generally around 100% haste, which means that any additional haste beyond this point does not further increase the attack speed. For spells, a casting time of 2 seconds would be reduced to 1 second under 100% haste, allowing for faster casting". That means the capped cast time currently is 1 second no matter how many haste DK have. If you have other refrence for this spell please provide us.

Also, known issue refrence on AC:
https://github.com/azerothcore/azerothcore-wotlk/issues/16420 https://github.com/azerothcore/azerothcore-wotlk/issues/18212

Fix from other core:

And some information that might useful other than haste:

Once again, if you have more refrence / valid source please leave it in the comment section.

well, the video that i just posted are from recent WoTLK Classic a few month ago, it's literally from official server run by blizzard, it's undeniable fact that the casting time of gargoyle can be below 1s

if anyone getting confused where the gargoyle casting bar is, it's right in the middle bottom of the screen

As i inform Bizzlike behaviour from AC, it was mentioned of the 3.3.5a Bizzlike in the past. The new classic Bizzlike is different as far i know. Because recently (about months ago) Blizzard just announce the nerf on Gargoyle UH DK.

As i discovered from Warmane's forum, it is 50% being told that Gargoyle does not have capped haste snapshot and 50% told capped by GCD 1s, without GCD its 2-1.5s.

Need to crosscheck this on other servers,  ofc this will be planned but soon.

Also searching thru the twisted realm(internet) and found that Gargoyle was found annoying in the Classic patch, and thats why in classic Gargoyle is getting nerfed. So i want your oppinion, does deducting GCD of Gargoyle will also balance the PVP world?

when it comes to pvp its actually really hard to get the gargoyle casting time below 1s due to incomplete buff also you cannot use any potion in arena, and there's so much counterplay for summon gargoyle like using shackle undead (priest ability) on the gargoyle, using turn undead (paladin ability) on the gargoyle, just straight up kill the gargoyle ASAP, even the most basic tactic which is lining the gargoyle until it dissapear will do, so i dont think deducting gargoyle casting time in pvp will make the class imbalance

I see your point of view here, then let's wait in the upcoming update on what's the final decision. Thanks for sharing! 👍

Adjusting the parameter snapshot of Ebon Gargoyle can gain from it's master's haste from 100% to 300%.

In condition, Summon Ebon Gargoyle's spell to be casted after stacking buffs.
