Last night I was doing some trolls and noticed that
Disrupting Chop was S L O W as hell.
the troll would pop up heal sig and before I was getting it
about 1/4 to 1/3 of the way thru.
NOW I am lucky if I can get it before it ends.
I saw a ranger bud that said his interupts had been changed
( slowed almonst in half ) as well..

ANOTHER NERF ?????

hmmm.... I haven't heard about a disrupting chop nerf. But from my experience, not all attacks are the same speed. You will notice that for an axe, there are several animations for an attack, some of those are just slower to hit than others. Other than that, I haven't noticed a change to disrupting chop.

Disrupting Chop hits at whatever speed your normal attacks are - 4/3 second a hit, or 8/9 second with 33% attack speed boost, unlike Distracting Blow which has a set swing time of 1/2 second.

Your internet is probably lagging or something.

I recently noticed it was very slow. I cannot interrupt even 1 sec cast time spells.

Healing signets on the other hand I've never had any problems with.

Don't forget that if you are in the process of using another attack skill, any interupt attack will land that much slower.

as far as i know disrupting chop has always hung a little before it hits making it awful to try and use against orison of healing and other quicker skills. this is compared to distracting blow which is a lot quicker because it's not a weapon based skill. you'll notice that the chop comes out the same speed as a cyclone. i like to use them both.
