Guild Wars 2

I was on walls of one tower far inside/no spell could hit me. Than one mesmer put down that purple line, that gives you speed if go trough, and somehow pull me 2 times (maybe 2 mesmers maybe 1) so they pulled me off the tower and i wasnt even in their sight.

Is this working as intended? If you ask me its little unfair and should be changed.

Working as intended. It was two mesmers most likely and they were just very well coordinated. All classes have pulls or knockbacks/downs. Engineers have a 1200 range pull as well as thieves. And it is not unfair because mesmers only have too crowd control techniques that revolve around physical crowd control.

Yes but those pulls that mesmer have also work if target is out of reach of any other normal spells or aoe spells even if they are 1200 range / or out of sight. I dont mind if would work like engi or thief one – meaning if there is obstacle between enemy and victim than spell wouldnt work.
Oh and kitten silly me, wanted to post this in WvW and ended in sPvP x.x

First off I might be wrong with the numbers

The skill pulls at about 500-600 range around the line and the skill can be placed 900 away from the mes so that’s like 1400-1500 range which is more than other pulls but it only pulls people about 400ish unlike other pulls which pull you to the user.

Basically you got hit by an aoe, well placed aoe’s can hit people you

The curtain can be laid down at a range of 600. And the pull range is 550. So if you are within that range you get pulled and the pull range is about 450. And they are not out of range of other AOE spells. Staff ele’s AOE’s and mesmers chaos storm can reach there. Temporal curtain has a shorter range than the other pulls. But here again you are asking for one of our two physical (movement) crowd control techniques to be nerfed. And that in and of it self is ridiculous.

it can be laid down at 900 range

Woops my bad on that one… even still unless an enemy is standing right near the edge of the tower one pull is impossible to yank someone off the edge. It takes two well coordinated pulls and is not something to need nerfed.

and the fact that it pulls to the center of the line and not towards the mes can make it a bit hard to use

Yeah that sucks, mesmers are op.

Coming from an ele. Most likely d/d. Seriously most mesmer skills are shoddy and unreliable and when we get them to work its like YAYYYYYYY but the amount of timing it takes to perfect a curtain pull combo and distance judging is quite ridiculous.
