Guild Wars 2

Hi, what does Nuhock Alchemy mastery do? Does it give me immunity to the ranged attacks Chak use?

If I want to camp in Tangled Roots, is it worth leveling, and where is it useful?

from the sounds of that it allows you to remove an effect their acid puts on you with your healing skill

I have a theory that it allows you to drop chak acid to open the crystallized cache, but yeah that’s just my opinion.. But I think it would make sense considering it says you can extract chak acid.

So what is its full effect? Does it reduce damage in any way, or does it just cleanse the blue goop when using your heal skill?

Removes “Chak Goop” on dodge roll. It’s actually rather nice

Hrm, wiki says healing skill. Are there any other unlisted behaviors? Does it decrease damage?

Does nothing on healing skill that I could see. Didn’t seem to reduce damage, but full stack was removed on roll. The chak goop does no damage on it’s own; it increases the damage you take from energy attacks (iirc) and reduces movement speed. At 10 stacks you are encased.
