Only thing I can think of is thrown Elixir R.
Wiki says it recovers endurance so why it heals from downed state? a bug?…
That’s Elixir R. The cooresponding toolbelt skill is Toss Elixir R and that revives allies over time. Drop it before you go down and you can technically rez yourself. Tough to do though since you gotta plan to die.
Also, the ele profession icon is a little flame. The engineer’s icon is a little bomb. They’re small and I guess similarly shaped so I can see an error occurring. However, they’ll look very different. Ele = light armor, daggers, staves, spellcasting. Engi = medium armor, guns, kits, ’splosions.

Rangers auto-resurrect? What?
. . . since when and why hasn’t that worked for me?
Since forever. Learn your skills. Someone already posted the answer in this thread.
Oh, I see . . . I thought that didn’t work on yourself, and hadn’t thought to try it since I use Rampage as One instead for the Stability. (I hate being knocked around a lot on WvW, which had become commonplace for a couple months
)

It’s not instant and, if you are not alone, you can DPS the engi for 4-5 seconds to counter the ressing. Poison works wonders too, as does knocking him out of the AoE, either downed or not. Also considering waiting the spell out if you have enough HP.

Crazy that people didn’t know about elixir R or the spirit of nature…probably because actually utilizing them requires great timing.

keeping Elixir R aside for a moment here, are you sure that mysterious super OP engineer magical skill wasn´t just a simple rally?
…Teldo just used it the other day in tpvp to win a 2v1. :p

Engi-elementalists are only on the top-secret test server dude. You’re crapping all over the NDA.
But I agree, the Calamity Bombardier downed skill is overpowered under certain conditions. However you have to consider the following:
- In order to get the kind of instant turnaround you’re describing, you have to trait it with Pyroclastic Laser Velociraptor-Maelstrom and Shrapnel Holocaust Smilodon-Frappe, which are both Grandmaster traits, as well as Precognitive Artillery Guidance Gnomes, and your choice of Banshee Aetherstorm Apparatus or Bio-mechanical Wendigo Mandibles for taste, if you like the combo of Vulnerable/Poisoned/Bamboozled/Weakness more than Bleeding/Chilled/Hoodwinked/Weakness.
- Doing so prevents you from taking any of the traits that contribute to the Titan Cataphract build where you focus more on the Bazooka configuration of your two-handed Mountain Cleaver, which can construct skeletal iron golems and knock them backwards in time to assassinate John Connors. I don’t know if you’ve tried that build, but it’s pretty strong, especially when you’re fighting things in the Phantom Zone. So there’s definitely an element of sacrifice in blocking yourself out of anything higher than 10 in your Skynet trait line.
- In order to get the true instant-rez effect, you have to toggle the Avatar State (F3) before you’re downed. And in case you skipped the part of the tutorial that explains that (blah, blah, blah, where’s the skip to the end button, I don’t even care that they hired Liam Neeson to be the voice of the apocryphal hidden interdimensional Seventh Elder Dragon of Heavy Metal if he won’t shut up about our class features, am I right?), doing so risks breaking the cycle of Reincarnation if you fail to rally, which would leave Fire Lord Ozai free to ravage the Earth Kingdom with his armada of flamethrower zeppelins.
That was the most brilliant thing I’ve read in my entire life.
