Guild Wars 2

Which are your favorite stomping strategies when downing players?

Do you like to throw wall of reflection between you and downed warriors or just popping aegis?
Do you prefer mesmer portal stomping (or does that not work as well anymore, I haven’t seen it in awhile)
Do you just enjoy throwing some kind of blind on downed rangers, warriors, guardians, engineers, necros before they can interrupt you?
Are you the thief that just loves to pop a smoke field right on top of them so they always miss?
Are you the person that throws immob on an ele so when they go into vapor form, they’re just stuck there?
As a necro, do you hop into spectral walk, go behind the downed player and begin the stomp then you teleport back in front of them right as you come down to finish them? (i’ve tried this a few times, and I think it works on downed guardians so u can avoid their knock-back)
Or do you just dodge the interrupt or block/deflect it?
Or you can hack and slash until they’re dead

I like to go with my shadowstep away then shadow return on the stomp. It’s hilarious starting a stomp on a guardian then shadowstepping away and seeing the big wave of light bubble pop then returning for the kill lol. Just started playing on my mesmer in wvw so not too sure of the tactics for them, i’m curious to hear from some mesmers.

Mesmer’s invul stomp is imo the best stomp.

Anyone else use this? How does it work? It doesn’t seem like it should avoid the guardian knockback.

timing has to be good though i’m not 100% sure on this. Last time I remember doing it, it worked
