Body Blocking[edit]

I've been testing the body-blocking note and I have *not* been able to reproduce it, whether by making sure MO is always in the line of site to the dispel, or whether by using dispel with the middle of the chestboard in the way (similar to there being an invisible object in the center of Xera's platform that *does* block projectiles). Thus I'm concluding that it is unsubstantiated. My hypothesis for why this note exists is that people might be mistargeting and thinking it was bodyblocked. I'll be removing the note to prevent misinformation from spreading, and if any objections I can also provide video. Horus-ra (talk) 09:26, 20 November 2017 (UTC)

So since the myth about body-blocking was brought up again, and added to the wiki, members from the raiding community in Raid Academy have conducted additional testing and there is no scenario that has had the effect body-blocked. It has worked every time if the target is selected. I've added the additional information to the wiki so please let us put this to rest.Horus-ra (talk) 10:17, 5 January 2020 (UTC)
