Guild Wars 2

I’m sure this has been a topic before. Engi magnet bugs/desyncs way too much. It’s even worse now than it was pre-patch. I’d say about 60-70% of my pulls fail. The enemy usually just falls to their feet in the place they were standing.

Pls fix

They need to start fixing landscape geometry bugs for that,like all those random obstructs happening with projectile skills aswell.

roll a thief and try to use scorp wire in and outside of combat, also around different terrain… suddenly magnet pull will appear highly reliable

Spectral Grasp has the same problem. I think it’s pulls in general. Can’t tell you how annoying it is when I’m trying to pull someone back to me so they can’t run away and they just trip then keep running. Sometimes it doesn’t even give me the Life Force it’s supposed to it just chills them and knocks them over.

Yeah, this is a terrain issue. Not sure if you played Rev this last weekend but the Yellow Brick Road skill on the mountain king legend showed issues with terrain very well, it would just stop half way and think it hit a wall on slightly inclined terrain…

I play all classes and can definitely say it’s all pulls. Magnet pull is actually the most reliable with scorpion wire a close second. Spectral grasp is the most unreliable in my experiences, as is the new revenant sword #5 pull.

Its a fairly hot topic in the engi forum.

I have gotten used to jumping when using magnet pull just before it lands, its a nice trick to pull from places above you etc. It doesn’t fix the problem but I got a lot less desyncs than before.

That would delay pry bar.

True,i do the same when i run lbow on my warr to lessen the possibility of getting obstructed.

Thief skill: Scorpion Wire → bugged since launch?

Well, it’s sad to hear it.

You want to know the sad thing? Despite the issues you’re having, Engi magnet is still the most reliable pull in the game.

Yeah I don’t play necro and I’ve never used scorpion wire on my thief so I didn’t really consider other pulls. It all needs to be fixed.

As a zerk engi, pull is a huge factor that leads up to my burst. It failing is huge.
