Guild Wars 2

As far as i know rallying off Siege is fairly consistent but sometimes doesn’t work but rallying of dolyaks however pretty much never works yet i’ve also witnessed people rally of those.

So what’s the deal with this inconsistency are dolyaks and siege supposed to rally people or not and why is it inconsistent in performance.

Is Siege rallying capped @ 5 people rallying of it? is it based on how much damage one did?

Are Dolyaks that deliver supply supposed to rally? (seen it rally people, when normally it doesn’t) or are only Dolyaks that are fighting back in a camp supposed to allow a rally?

Heck could it be that only some camps are coded so that only the dolyaks there can rally?

Any dev willing to shed some light on the inconsitency of this rally mechanic here and create some clearity to prevent this ‘’ confusion ’’ cause we obviously don’t want to confuse players ^.~

As far as i know siege do not rally anyone. Also they “fixed” dolyaks so you can not rally from it either. Those people you saw rally must have hitted a firefly or drake to get a rally from.

Sadly those ‘’ must have hitted x or y ’’ do not apply in the situations i refer too, as the ones i refer to have witnessed where extreemly clear with no npc in range outside of the yak or siege mentioned over a fair period of time to make it even more unlikely to rally from something else (and if the person rally’s from an xp event you can notice this easy on the full hp return).

Shame i don’t record i guess, it would create a long list of anomaly behavior.

You should be able to rally off Dolyaks imo. They are a killable enemy just like a vet guard, firefly, spider, or opposing player.

Rallying off siege? Now that’s just silly.

You can most definitely rally off siege. I’ve done it multiple times where it was crystal clear it was the siege I was rushing solo vs multiple players that rallied me. I’ve also done my share of yaksniping escorted yaks where the yak obviously doesn’t rally me. Quite frankly, even if the yak can’t fight back, if you manage to kill it with escorts (players not npcs) you’re probably deserving of a rally. Siege on the other hand….

You rally from siege, but you don’t rally from dolyaks.
You rally from any creature that was yellow or red, but you don’t rally from critters.
