Playing around with my B.net blade shield assassin over the weekend, I noticed something odd. After a fairly drawn out fight, and with BS still active, I went to recast Burst of Speed, but nothing happened. I heard the "nuh-nuh-nuh" sound from the $6 Million Dollar Man go off, and my mana ball went down accordingly, but there was no aura around my feet and I was still running extremely slower than normal.
Even after recasting it a few more times, there was still no effect. I thought that I might have hit a lag spike, but casting a TP and popping through to town didn't change anything. Still no BoS.
However, once BS deactivated, I was able to get it to work. I didn't get a chance to retest it soon after as I had to leave about 10 minutes after that. If I get the chance later this week, I'll play around with it to see if it's repeatable.
But are there any ideas as to why this happened?
