Madstoned monk

[LupusVai]

I have just noticed that you cant change monk stance when madstoned. Don't remember it being like this on live (although not played my monk on live in a while). New change?

Yet another bug/nerf.

Madstone rage now prevents pretty much everything in the game. Cant even enter a barbarian rage while its active.

does not prevent these things on live.

KK ty for the feedback. Was thinking about it and thought that it did kind of make sense. Would assume you'd need to be calm, focused and rational to change fighting styles. (and so why they changed it) Guess we'll never know if its intentional or not though. ;-)

um no its a bug. I doubt they touched madstone specificly, they just changed upgraded all your stances, and forgot to unflag their no-rage status, its an extremely common bug they put into the game dozens of times.

Rage doesnt make you irrational or into a complete imbecile that cant change his fighting stance. It makes you angry and more powerful, neither of which has anything to do with that.

And you can still change other stances like power attack.

"Normally" rage, sure. I agree with that.

Madstone rage is hardly normal. It is an outside influence causing you to behave in an uncontrolled, irrational behavior.

That said, the bug sucks.

Madstone and monks sucks. It blocks a lot of monk abilities. I remember when I first looted them on my light monk thinking awesome but then find out none of the finishers work, none of the cure aliment enhancements work, plus some other stuff as well. Pretty much madstone is nice for the extra hp during boss fights and that's about it.
