Does Iniquity interrupt the buff on Thundering Kicks?

As topic, my buff wasn't kicking in when the iniquity animation cancelled the kick for some reason o_O

Didn't know about that one.

The thing I ran into mostly while using TK, is blocking right after the 3 hit stops the buff from being activated.
Did you try to do a fourth kick? That is what I do to make sure block isn't messing with the buff.

And animation priority needs do be looked over in general, the block anim MD tends to give, overwrites cleave for instance. The charge anim on annihilate overwrites the hit anim, and so does conviction.
Iniquity overwrites almost all other animations, which is just annoying, you can't even see what you are doing when someone spams it on you.

My rotation is like, Force Shield, EM, Lunge, about 12 TKs and repeat. Block can't possibly have interrupted 4 TKs in a row :O! But I noticed my character kept doing the Iniquity animation though.

I also ran again and requested the healer not use Iniquity and got my 100% dodge back. Very strange and probably needs more testing in controlled situation like the powerhouse.

I have noticed the blocking problem on a toon w/ rank 3 TK sometimes. That was solo, though, so Iniquity prob wasn't a factor. I dun think I've encountered the same phenom on my toon w/ r2 TK + CC, but I'll have to keep an eye out for any oddities.
