I did try it, clearly you are the one who didn’t. It dazed the golem on every pulse from that combo field. And I’m not the first one to come in this thread and correct you on this.

Stop spreading lies, you clearly don’t even understand how the skill works.

Let’s see a video of one CG proccing multiple dazes

My laptop can’t handle taking a video of GW2. But since you are so adamant that it procs only once every 2 ticks, then you post a video of it only proccing every 2 ticks.

Because you clearly haven’t even tested the skill.

I retract my previous statement, it his all four times which solidifies my suggestion of its ICD becomes 2 secs. That is stupid, but again the CG alone can’t get the stacks which is a plus.

In Pvp last night I wasn’t seeing the dazes hit everytime when people sat in the fields and that could be due to stab/cleanses etc. on a Golem it does show

They should probably consider increasing the stack size required to proc daze. With potent posion or even psn duration, It’s a bit to easy to apply.

Aoe dazes shouldn’t exist in the first place imo though.

I would not be opposed to increasing the ICD on the daze applied by ICD, but I’d rather it just become another effect entirely. Daze is a really strong effect, even before you factor in any synergy with on interrupt traits. Yet CG hands it out pretty easily, especially when you factor in the enhanced poison application that thief got with this same patch.

Someone else suggested increasing the ini cost of CG, I don’t agree that that would be the best way to move forward though.

I’d give the patch time (at least a few days) to settle in before reacting. See how it effects things and if it needs a change you could have a 2s icd, higher stack requirement, shorter daze, or any combination of those things.

No the proc requirement is fine. The ICD should just apply to all targets, not be specific to each target.

The issue isn’t that it can daze spam one person. The issue is that can stop entire group power rezzes by CC spamming the entire rez.

If a thief puts 2-3 CG on a down the only way to get the rez is if a Mesmer does a 3-clone Distortion.

Thankfully the skill by itself per application can’t reach the threshold to provide Dazes and Jaya why I think increasing the ICD is the best way to ensure it isn’t Overtuned.

Or if you have resistance, stab, or one guy with a couple aoe cleanses.

Some players have a hard grasp on what counterplay is.

Resistance doesn’t do anything. CG just checks stack count, it doesn’t care if the poison effects are being applied.

Also pulsing daze will burn through stability stacks.

Resistance keeps additional stacks from being applied (obviously you need to make sure you’re under 5), so it doesn’t do nothing. And sure it’ll eventually get through stab, but you should have a few seconds for the rez. Point is there are options. And can’t you even teleport the body away with a necro or ranger (not sure if that’s changed, been away for two months). Or if a thief or ele is down they can leave the cg field themselves.

It does not keep additional stacks from being applied, it merely stops them from affecting you.

oh my bad i thought you were saying the daze pulse has a 2sec icd.

No it needs a 2 sec ICD on it.

That could work. Chances are it will get toned down eventually, most thieves that i’ve talked to admit it’s a bit too good.

Yep. No CD skill with a daze. It’s like if Chaos Storm had no CD. It’s just wrong and has extremely little counterplay.

Resistance does not prevent condi application.

I have to agree with OP. The thing is that thieves have taken the short bow as their secondary weapon for as long as the game has existed. SB 6 is just THAT strong. Arena Net: Not every weapon needs a CC to be useful.

YAY I IZ SPECIAL! I dont even own a sb on any toons…no need
