Guild Wars 2

My group was attacking a keep today and some thieves were defending and using venom share on the Arrow Carts. It was allowing the carts to heal and use the various effects. Is this intended? Or is it a bug?

This was suposedly fixed already… I wonder if this bug returned.

Yes it is back. I have 6 other people who can attest to this. The two thieves were actively doing it as well

Slightly related: non-boon damage reduction effects also work on siege (Great Dwarf, frost aura etc..).

Thank you for the swift response. I figured it was a bug but I just couldn’t remember. Someone in the guild said it was a problem a few months ago that got resolved, I’m sure with the new things being added though something got mistweaked.

Can we just ban thieves from WvW till this is fixed?

Thank you guys for the continued reports on boons and conditions affecting siege, walls and gates! I wanted to let you know these are being investigated, but no eta is available at this time for fixes.

Dara, I don’t mind having more complexity to WvW combat. Having professions or builds better with siege isn’t a bad thing.

Does it need a 75% vote to pass?

Except it is. No build or prof should have an effect like that. It would make it mandatory, killing build diversity and adding even more in for developers to balance.
