Downed?
There’s already a thread for this. You can approach downed in a few ways; take advantage of it’s benefits and learn to work with it, or ignore/reject it and fall prey to those that take advantage of it.

I’m a necromancer. I don’t even want to hear about how much Downed sucks.

Uhm, no.
This is a major game mechanic,
You go Downed and you are still in the battle, you are not Defeated yet.
If you refuse to adapt to a major game mechanic that has not only been present since launch, but announced over a year prior to launch, then you can expect that your opponents are going to rally and turn the fight against you.
And I assure you,
It’s a solid satisfaction that comes with a victory like that.
mesmers have the best downed state ability. move away from target and go invis is priceless. Illusionary berserker knocking out half of somebody’s health priceless as well.
Now if you want terrible downed state, look no further than at ele’s all they do is go into mist form and move for like 3 seconds and fall down, and then have a crappy immobilize as the 3rd option. ele’s downed state is some bullkitten!!!
Ele is good. All depens on the situation. I even heard about some Ele that went back into their own keep while defending and getting downed in front of the gate.
