    You just stated why Deorbit shouldn't work while Concentration is active. They are displacements which Concentration is meant to stop. Eating the buff is definitely a bug which should be addressed in the bug section. I agree it shouldn't eat the Concentration buff but where I disagree is deorbit should work when concentration is active. Which is the gamble I am referring too. Concentration no where states that is only meant for negative effects.

    Deorbit is essentially a knockback effect which is why Deorbit also doesn't work with Inner Release.

    I main AST in pvp but you don't see me whining about how deorbit doesn't work in certain situations. I have also deorbit'ed a corpse before. But I have also used ED and Benefic II on a corpse before.

    Also if it is so buggy. Why has no one started a bug report? That would be the quickest resolution to the problem and we would be able to see what SE intended.

    Update: I tested Deorbit today and agree the Conc being eaten is a bug but it not pulling back is working as intended since with IR it doesn't consume the buff or pull back.
