There are some instances that warcry is not breaking when it should. Plz post here in as simple and easy to describe ways that wacry can be "bugged" or can cause it not to break properly. I am making this list to provide to the devs, so they can fix these bugs. I have not gotten to to be bugged yet myself, but know people that I trust have.
Posts that cry "fix it now" and any other non constructive posts will just be ignored.

Someone can spam warcry2 on someone while someone beats the crap out of them. The warcry may break but it will immediately be reapplied before the victim has a time to react.

Intimidate does not break warcry.
Applying a DOT (cm diseases/poisons) do not break warcry.

1. Anyone thats overt of opposite faction or that has a tef on you can warcry you non stop while other people attack you. As a jedi I cant heal, avoid incap, fight or do anything.
2. Somtimes even the people that are attacking me can dot me, set me on fire and war cry till dead.
I think war cry needs a large timer, like maybe you can only use it once every 4 or 5 minutes. They also need to fix the problem with dots not breaking.

Another problem is the thread at the top of this forum labeled "make wary cry efficient"..... Having that stickied certainly isnt helping the problem. No wonder war cry doesnt break, the brawler correspondent posts sticky's on how to get around the supposed fix. I almost consider that an exploit.

If the brawler is working on ways to make the current Warcry effective in one on one Pvp or in PvE I do not think it is an exploit. However in TEF situations with a brawler simply standing by and continually spamming Warcry while others attack I do belive borders on exploit and should be modified.
In either event, I agree that the Warcry should be given a timer, althoughI think two minutes is better than 5. As a wookie I can use Wookie Roar as well as War Cry. Wookie Roar is on a timer and I think Warcry should be similar to that.
There are some who are pushing for Warcry 2 to be an area effect and if that happened there would definitely need to be a timer then!

Someone kept tossing poisons and disease on me and warcry every time it hit, then after a while, he didn't have to do warcry, as if doing it over and over, let's it stack/stick. Just kept tossing poisons and diseases.

I was warcy'ed last night by a master brawler and was unable to attack him back while he attacked me. This was a one on one fight, and was frustrating. (this was on my main in case anyone cares) From my testing, I have seen it not break when it should randomly and have not found any pattern. I am reporting this stuff as I see it though.

Simple solution atm is to turn it off till the problem is fixed, because this being such a devestating bug that is being used for ridiculous effects is spoiling pvp on any scale.

From the point of view of being warcryed and then getting bugged, when I get bugged it is pretty much always in areas of play where there are a lot of players about, i.e. big battles or busy starports or when I'm suffering any amount of lag.
It usually isn't after the first warcry, but after the second or third. Once the warcry has gone, I find until I next log off my combat queue can bug with some of AOE specials failing to work. It happens too with either warcry 1 or 2, it doesn't seem to matter.
Personally until this is fixed it should be removed as a skill. As to a fix, then warcry should be a single use on a player special, after all a warcry is something that is supposed to instill fear into an opponent in a battle, however this is only a one shot deal. Plus you should not be able to be warcryed by more than one player at a time, or be warcryed by another player within a time period say between 3 and 5 minutes after your have been warcryed. Also the warcry should not delay you, it should slow you down act more as a negative speed modifier, so you can atleast heal.

This is pretty much what i have experienced as well.. nice to see that you have finally been able to reproduce the issue.
