Guild Wars 2

i actually like soulbeast, and will probably make at least one of my rangers into one…

however… the ability that says you get knocked out of soulbeast form and instead gain health when you would otherwise be downed.. doesn’t seem to be working at all… or at least not in wvw. died 3 times testing…every single time was downed normally.

It worked fine in PvP – but it’s possible that in WvW, you got cleaved down instantly. A 4k heal or whatever it is doesn’t last long against 30k DPS from an enemy zerg.

only one of those deaths was to a full on zerg. the other two were small scale fights... 1-2 v me

The trait has two very important conditions. First, the prerequisite, you must be in Beast Mode for it to trigger. Second, the cooldown, this trait will not trigger more than once every minute. I suspect one of those two conditions were not met at the time.

Though, it is possible the cooldown timer isn’t set correctly. This error has happened before. If you suspect that to be the case, and can confirm the conditions were met, I suggest you fill out a support ticket.
