Guild Wars 2

What I find annoying when grouping is i throw down my fire combo field to blast finisher out of and someone just a split second before lays down a light combo field that envelopes my fire combo field now my group gains retaliation and not the three stacks of might. normally i can move my character to outer rim of my combo field but some times you are unable to. Other times you can wait for the combo field you don’t want to go away then do your combo finisher however if you do it too quickly you still gain the effect you did not want.

It would be nice if you could go into UI menu and choose your combo field priority

an example being:

1-Water
2-Fire
3-Light
4-Etheral
5-Dark
6-Poison
7-Smoke

just a thought i had. not sure if a change like this would make the game to easy though.

hm… and all this time I was under the belief that stacking combo fields stacked the combo field bonuses… never really got to test any combo field but fire though…

rather than a priority setting they should just make them stack…

The priority at the moment is whatever field your finisher goes through first.

I personally prefer this system as opposed to being able to choose your own field priority because it requires coordination rather than being able to spam a finisher knowing that you will get what you want regardless of what is occurring around you.

For Projectile finishers yes but for leap and blast finisher its what ever is laid on the ground first
