Guild Wars 2

dose anyone know that: will chain (skill 1 ) be interrupted(reset) if your enemy evade your attack by like dodge?

like if i am attack my enemy with my skill1 and after 2 attack, when iam hit them with my third attack, they evade, and i missed that attack because their evade, will my next attack still be my third chain, or reset to my first chain

i test on the AI, that if i miss that attack becasue i am blind, i will still go with my third attack, but if i am block, i will go back to first chain, but its kinda hard to test evade by using AI, so,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, anyone know????

just want use this to help me go against sword thief, like their skill 1 third chain do a lot dmg, even if they did not hit me the first time,(like if i run out of the range or they hit the wrong direction) they have time to use that third chain again before the auto reset, so i am thinking about, i should just stand there and wait their third chain, and dodge it, to let the chain reset,, so yea….

for all practical purposes, evading and missing are the same thing. if you miss your attack #3, be it because of blind, out of range, or evade, you’ll still have enough time to land it again.

blocks are different because you technically hit the target, he just nulled the attack. it’s an important difference because if you hit someone with aegis, that person just lost their block. there’s also unblockable attacks (like larcenous strike from sword/dagger thief), which go through stuff like shield stance and aegis, but can still be evaded.
