Arcane Singularity Broken (Oppressor)

Arcane Singularity bugs out, gathers the mobs and SLing shots them ALL over the map making it unusable in dungeons.

I specced Oppressor believing I would take cryptics push towards control and buy the control pets and respec myself and reroll myself for max control. However; It comes at a price. my Arcane singularity now behaves like a repel spell and shoots the enemies across the map about 2 times father then Ice Storm.

I believe it has something to do with arcane singularity's pull interacting with my bonus to control. IE dps CW's arcane singularities Gather them up nicly and deposit them all nicly in 1 spot so they can be dpsed and cc'ed effectivly.
Mine is actually a liability and got my group killed multiple times in Castle never because it sling shotted all the mobs to the edges of the ring and no 2 mobs where grouped together making CC impossible. The mobs on my arcane singularity also act oddly when I try it... they are pulled in, swing around on the floor rapidly and glitch out, then explode going in every direction.

I bought the companions to boost my control, and bought artifacts to further boost my control and I believe I've crossed the threshold where skills start to break. Sadly my control bonus can go WAY higher with better artifacts+stats+gear and Tyranny of dragons tier 5 boon.

I'm at 132% control.

I have 35% control from companions
3% from artifacts
15% from stats
75% from orb of imposition

And if this has anything to do with it... I did buy the Dragon Born pack...

This is game breaking to me because My ONLY ability to gather up guys and cc them is broken. so effectivly I CANNOT cc in a dungeon enviorment. I have to have another CW gather them with their dps spec, so I can CC...which is ridiculess.

I realize this is a bug, but the way I see it, I broke my arcane singularity quite possibly by Buying companions and the dragonborn pack...and in order to fix it without the devs help I'll have to spec away from control...or let the renegade and thermas take over gathering the mobs so my oppressor can actually crowd control

    You are correct in that this happens with a higher control bonus. I have encountered the exact same problem. I have already submitted a ticket myself but it is frustrating.

    Do you know the magic number that arcane singularity breaks at?

    I am not sure about the magic number when they start flying around in the sing, but it seems the higher your control bonus the more they fly around during sing.

    well regaurdless it makes my companions I bought with zen and upgraded useless to put in active slots and this needs to be addressed asap. I'mma be pretty Ticked off about this if I just blew 60 bucks on something I can't use because it will destroy my characters ability to CC. x.x
