Death’s charge says it destroys projectiles, but point black shot still knocks you back. Why?

Yeah, its weird, since it can be reflected. PBS makes me cry about my aussie ping. I swear there are so many times I anticipate it, dodge it, then get knocked back at the end of my dodge.

Not sure why. But there’s also mention regarding this on wiki (https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Point_Blank_Shot). Check the notes section “If an enemy reflects the arrow, the player is knocked back instead.”

To clarify, if an engi pops it’s dome, the ranger gets knocked back. If the necro death charges, the necro gets knocked back.

I thought I was going crazy when I was getting PBS’ed while death charging.

I curious if this is specific to PBS or if all projectiles still affect the necro.

I think it’s just PBS, as I’ve been pretty safe from projectiles otherwise when using Death’s Charge. Save unblockable ones, of course.

Probably some weird interaction between DCs block and this part of PBS

The damage and push count as separate strikes; single-attack block skills such as Counterblow will prevent the damage, but not the push.
