Guild Wars 2

•AoE skills were skipping targets that were blocking/evading and cause them to not count towards the cap. These blocking/evading targets will now count towards the cap and won’t cause AoE skills to skip them to target additional players. This will lower the amount of AoE in PvP.

So,if there are 5 players who blocking/evading in zergs,AoE skills will skip another players?Zergs are all full hp,No matter how many AOE there are?

Looks like they didn’t tell us how they select the 5 targets. If it is pure rng then those lucky ones that got selected without blocks or evades will still get hit.

That was the impression I got from the livestream. Sounds like before, the cap was on how many targets the AOE skill would damage, whereas now it’s the number the AOE skill will attempt to damage. Doesn’t sound like it’s biased towards or against any particular targets.
