Guild Wars 2

This has probably been asked before, but why is it allowed that Steal and other instant cast teleports do not interrupt a finisher. It clearly not how these skills were ment to be used, yet they’ve gone unfixed for months. This is a Bug that’s being openly exploited in pvp, and it makes playing against thieves even less fun. Are you planning to fix this anet??

Also, i had Gift and Snowman finishers in PvP locker, which are now missing, due to changes. What does anet plan to do about this?

Think its by design, not a bug.

if its by design, then its poorly designed, it gives an unfair advatage to certain classes, and completely eliminates the need for a downed state, if theres 0 chance of interupting or avoid the finisher

You get downed by a thief and complain that he tele-stomps you?

yes, because hes ignoring how finishing moves work, and using a bug to insure target is downed. are you saying if you go down you should just stay still and not try to stay alive?
This should be fixed, along with the hundred of other bugs in pvp.

It’s absolutely by design. You can use most instant abilities during a normal cast.

This is a easy fix. Jsut remove downed stat from pvp…please!!!

So should aegis not affect players being stomped? How about distortion? Should you be able to stomp every mesmer using distortion to stomp? How about stability, should we nerf stability from stomping? No more DS stomping?

I’ve been interrupted by EVERY single skill that interrupts when downed after laying a BP to stomp. Every single class can time their attacks to LAND their interrupt THROUGH black powder and every other ground blind in the game.

If you’re good enough then it’s no problem interrupting and finding that sweet spot. This is a L2P issue.
