Charged Up Raid Bug

Has anyone else noticed this issue or put in a bug report? Why does charged up go away when a boss is pulled? Not sure what the cause is but it's very frustrating. The bug existed on beta and was fixed but is now back.

This is not a bug, but intended.

Arcane Charges reset to 0 when you enter raid combat. Just pre-pull with Arcane Blast and then use Charged Up after you got into raid combat.

Is this new with BfA? Been raiding with Arcane forever and never had that happen before Uldir. Seems a little weird but as long as other people are noticing it too and I’m not crazy I feel a little better. Thanks for the response.

Oh and another thought, a zero charge arcane blast might as well be nothing. Would it make less sense to open with arcane missiles? Or will that delay our opener too much?

Since they made the spell, it is resetted when you pull a boss in raid. So no bug at all.

This is relevant to Charged up as well not sure if anyone else has this issue but when I use charged up I only get 3 charges instead of 4. It's really weird and if anyone could explain it to me that would be fantastic.

Bump on this. Seen this on my char too, not always but sometimes. Thought my weakaruas were playing up.

Yeah. It's still happening to me once in a while. Last night during progression kill too. Kind of frustrating. Like you said though...I'm not 100% sure that it's just not my ELVUI messing up.

I'm not sure that this is a normal situation.
For example. Rogue combo points are not reseted;

ok this is frustrating for me. at first it only happened at Taloc. i said "ok" just one boss i can start differently, now at batlle for dazaralor it happened at first 3 bosses and i give up trying the rest for my mental health. this is the worst thing can happen to an arcane mage! drink up potion, charge up, rune, arcane power, boss is pulled and "booom" i have no charges.... it feels like missing the penalty at world cup final match.. it is more frustrating that blizzard take no action for this bug for over 6 months, maybe even 9-10months if we are going to count the beta era. i stopped trying progress runs with my main char.. i submitted bug 5-6 times, blizzard seem to take no action at all plus making it worse. why do we even have "charged up" if it is not going to charge me up?
someone said that it is not a bug; if it is not a bug, can you answer that: how come it happens "only" at Taloc and not at other bosses? it is big F bug. if it is not a bug i, agree with TER: "why not rogue combo is not reset?"

As Dutch mentioned, this is 100% the intended design, and exists to prevent shenanigans at the pull.
It used to be common practice to swap gear sets seconds before a pull to obtain stat buffs, reset the boss before the pull to gain rage/charges/combo points, and tons of other crap.

Unless you want to be forced to take Charged Up or find and kill 4 critters before every pull, let it go.
