Hello, forums of Guild Wars 2. Today I took a closer look at the skill Lava Font (staff fire 2), and the tooltip indicates it has no cast time. I thought it was cool, because one of the elementalist’s strengths is having access to a lot of instant cast spells they can use while channeling something else, without interrupting it.
Well, it’s not the case with Lava Font. I can’t cast it during other channels, like other instant cast spells, and I can even interrupt it with something like an autoattack, but there’s no channeling bar on the screen. I’ve seen that I can mitigate the aftercast by immediately channeling something else, but if I do it too early, I run the risk of interrupting Lava Font.
Has it always been this way, or was it patched to contain a cast time and an aftercast? Why isn’t it instant cast? Would that be too powerful for an elementalist?
