Can Fortify get a buff?

I would like to be able to cast spells while in Fortify, but however, while in Fortify, the ele still cannot move. This way, I can cast Meteor Shower while being invulnerable.

With that, I can see Magnetic Shield being a great choice along with staff.

Also, since Unsteady Ground no longer cripples, I would like it if Eruption cripples instead.

Therefore, I can do the burst: Eruption -> Magnetic Shield -> Magnetic Shield aoe pull -> Fortify -> Meteor shower

Sounds unreasonable. Why should Fortify stay, when you drop the shield that gives you the skill?

I do agree that you should be able to blink while using it at least.

If you treat the skills you’re currently running as being impossible to replace, you’ll never get to appreciate new builds. Try something before you complain about it.

If you can read this then it is proof that ArenaNet’s moderators just, kind and fair.

Multiple reasons.

  • To give you invulnerability while channeling skills.
  • Great support option for other professions that uses channeling skills. They too can use the AoE pull → Fortify → Barrage/Meteor shower/some other channeled skill.
