Which debuffs specifically are you trying to clear with Reverse Backstab?

There are a few mechanical debuffs that are central to certain fights that you can not cleanse with reverse stab or any other form of debuff removal. This function is intended and has been said to be intended by the developers in the past when it was brought up.

I can think of two examples off the top of my head.

• Neriad’s Rend
• Neshataun’s Dot

If you have other specific examples of a debuff you really need to provide better precise explanation of what debuff in what instance isn’t being cleansed properly.

I’m not even counting PVE Fights. The issues I’m seeing are in regards to PVP. However I think I know what changed. With VG I used to be able to get rid of all the the debuffs on my person when someone was hitting me with the VG, but I slowed it down and noticed it was getting rid of a SINGLE debuff. It was throwing me off because compared to how it used to work (it would transfer all debuffs) to how it works now (only a single debuff transfers) it was throwing me off and was making it hard to noticed.

This isn’t a bug but I think was just a retune, which is unfortunate because VGs will contiue to be difficult to fight considering they triple stack (if not more) debuffs. SO I think this was a fix and not a bug. Pretty sure it can be ignored now but thanks for the response.

I apologize for the hassle as I did test more and noticed that it still does a single debuff.
