Guild Wars 2

Hi everyone!
I invite you all to a theory crafting session on the downed state. I wish to know you ideas on this one. Is it worth fighting in downed state or not. And how are different situations affect this. I mean you can’t do that much damage when you are down. So in some cases it might be a better idea to give up and let them get you instead of disrupting the attackers. If you die 1vmore then I think it might be good to disrupt since you are taking away the time of multiple enemies, so they wont cap and fight others while they are busy with you. But might not worth it in 1v1 or when you will clearly die and does not have any chance of being revived. In some cases you might be wasting your own time.
Also I am not sure how the CD on the return to checkpoint works. Does it starts to count when you get down so fighting in downed state can’t be a waste at all or is it tied to something else? I am looking forward for your thoughts on this.

Is it worth fighting? Depends on a lot of factors: Do you have teammates around (who might revive you)? Are you within the boundaries of a capture point? Does your opponent have 10% or less health? Is there a group battle around you that could occlude you while you rez? If so, fight on. If you’re alone, severely outnumbered, or in the middle of nowhere: die.

The resurrection timer works by the clock. Every 20 seconds starting at 0, if I remember correctly. If you’re on 01, 21, 41, might as well fight. if you’re in the relative teens, quicker to die.
