[bug] Wand of Speed randomly fails to apply the buff

I've noticed that in the latest beta, the Wand of Speed "misfires" occasionally.  It acts like I've triggered it -- the cooldown timer starts -- but I don't actually run any faster, and the buff icon doesn't show up.

I've never had this happen and I always get this item.  I'll watch more for it though.

That sounds horrible. Does anyone know of a way to reliably reproduce this?

I had this against a player playing OAK when he would stun me.  A few people I know have died they said it wouldn't launch after I used Silence as Sedna

I had this loads back in 2A. I stopped using the item, but if it wasn't fixed it is probably the same bug. The buff fails to apply only when I move. I guessed in an earlier thread that it had something to do with muoseclicking close to the keypress.

Now that you mention it, I think I usually see it if I issue a move command at about the same time that I active the wand.

Spawm the right click and active the wand while clicking will make it happen.

Also true of rejuvination elixer, had to retreat to use the crystal, they eventually started working again however...There has been similar situations with lots of spells and other effects, wherein they do not launch. I'll start frapsing these my sessions.

it happens with all items and skills which are triggered once you press the button/hotkey (those where you don't have to issue an target) and it definitely happens when you give a move order (rightclick) right after you activated the item/spell
