Guild Wars 2

My CoE group encountered the mythical Firy Blast today. We were all pretty surprised to see it, and it ended up persisting throughout the rest of the fight. It caught us off-guard so much on our first attack on him, he ended up wiping us and resetting.

I know a few other players have accounted for this attack, but does anyone know what sets it off? Or is it just an incredibly rare attack that sets off once in every X amount of runs?

Did you have a mesmer using offhand pistol? Some people seem to notice that the illusionary duelist sets it off for some reason.

I believe so, I don’t really remember if the mesmer had an offhand pistol or not.
