Our group notices last night that Gor’s breakbar wasn’t being completely taken out by Engi’s Slickshoes. We had two engis try and both couldn’t solo his bar, when the day before patch they could do it easily

Has anyone else notice this change? Is it a buff to Gor’s Breakbar or tweeking to Slickshoes in general?

I’d be astounded if slick shoes was working as intended. One skill shouldn’t negate a breakbar. If what you’re saying is true I imagine they fixed slick shoes.

Last night Slick Shoes was still getting rid of about 70-80% of the bar on its own. I’m curious to see how much Mesmer Moa Signet would take out (not that anyone would use it) since I believe it’s been considered to destroy breakbars on its own too.

I don’t play engi so it would be nice to know if Slickshoes changed on anything else’s breakbar.

i thought it was me just being useless for some reason!

before the patch i took down the breakbar no problems as all, but fighting him last night there would often be a little bit left and id have to shout to my group for more cc. there was nothing in patch notes about SS change and the tooltip looked the same so figured i was more tired than i realised and was messing up :/

Can anyone actually consistently break Gorseval’s bar with slick shoes alone? I find that slick shoes are super inconsistent. Sometimes they break the entire bar in less than 1 second and sometimes they just kind of slowly break half of the bar and that’s it. And sometimes somewhere in between.

I know how slick shoes work: you have to exit the area of the last puddle to spawn a new puddle. So I’ve been doing that and I’ve gotten better at it with practice, breaking the entire bar more consistently, but it still seems like sometimes they don’t work (slowly breaks half of the bar and stops).

Do any engis here use a specific pattern for running around inside Gorseval with good results?
