Guild Wars 2

So does anyone else not like that they switched around the downed skills for the elementalist? Since they put mist form as 2, I keep accidentally activating it when I die. Then i use it up before it would actually be needed and I’m dead. Does anyone else have this problem?

Not often enough to want it switched back. Our downed went from being the worst to one of the best, let’s keep it that way.

No.

The switch was needed so that eles weren’t an instant stomp in WvW & sPvP, and it’s a lot more useful now in PvE, too.

You’ll get used to the change eventually.

I think they could add a small delay to that #2 ability, like .5 sec or 1 sec. that might help from mistforming before you even know your dead but still keep the skill in line for what its intended for. Realistically it will take you a sec or so to decide what direction etc would be best to run to anyway so I doubt it would be much of a problem.

I have the same problem, will be glowing white and think, wtk (get it what the kitten)? and then realise that I’m dead and have no chance at using my VF to prevent a stomp. Still I don’t want it changed back, I would have preferred a different skill to the VF and gotten rid of it altogether.

This person means switch the positions of the skills, not switch them back to before the skills were redone (I hope). Even if you click two before you die, the command will transfer to your downed state. Two is the most used skill so it’s incredibly annoying.

Or just fix that part… I hate when I go VF out of nowhere…..

Just a 1s timer on VF will suit me fine. I’m sick of being in VF before I’ve even realised that I’m downed

In SPvP more like the fourth or fifth best. Better than before, sure. The CD on Grasping Earth is sadly a wee bit long and it appears to not immobilize when first applied, but one or two seconds into the effect, which only makes it really useful when not being tageted.

How I wish that Grasping Earth swapped place with Unsteady Ground or Dust Devil,
