Guild Wars 2

When I logged last night, our mobility skills were working just fine. I log for a bit this morning, and I’m getting sling shotted all over the place any time I use RTL or magnetic grasp. Just ridiculous. The skills were already buggy as hell, and now they’re borderline unusable. Afaik there wasn’t any patch overnight, so why exactly are my skills broken now?

I’ve not noticed a change in RTL, and it still works fine for me, are you sure you haven’t accidentally switched auto-targeting on?

Magnetic grasp, I find to still be problematic if I grasp a really big enemy, or an enemy who is on a raised surface, like above the keep in sPvP!

Have you played this morning? It’s not just me. Others eles I asked said it was happening to them too.

Come to think of it I have been playing staff all day! I’ll have a look now!

MG moves me through and passed my target maybe 1 in 3 times. Otherwise, it’s working as expected.

RTL seems fine.

I tried them out on my ori run in karka country, on the small ones, they both functioned fine, on the scary veterans, magnetic grasp still made me stand around like a lemon on a rock for a bit, and rtl made me go towards them, and when I got there, again I was stood about like a sloth on segway!

Maybe it’s only happening in wvw or something like that.

I played my D/D elementalist all afternoon and noticed no changes to either of them. RtL worked fine all the time (though it did seem to be stopping short occassionally and doing no damage) and Magnetic Grasp is… well, as reliable as it always is. Still not perfect, but def. not worse.

And the game itself hasn’t been changed today, so it would make little sense for them to be behaving differently unless the server is having a heart attack.

This is a problem that has been present for DAYS.

Using RTL and Magnetic Grasp puts me past the target, which is extremely annoying especially in WvWvW.

Anet, please fix this.

I played a bunch more tonight and only saw it a couple times. It seems like an intermittent problem.

Just FYI, i’m not running an ele, but the few times i had an ele go RTL through me onto the wall behind, i blinded him before.

Could it be that ?

I wouldn’t rule anything out, but I don’t think there’s a correlation there. Sometimes we eles just think we have someone targeted and actually don’t, and sometimes we think we don’t and actually do. Not that that’s the explanation for this as it’s happening to magnetic grasp moreso which only works at all if you hit something.

This happens regularly to me, in fact if I get RTL to place me in front of the target I do a little dance. Jokes aside I play around 200ms latency (nothing I can do to improve it) and what you’ve described is the usual story for me, add to that burning speed distances change and things like drake’s breath and cone of cold miss frequently.

I saw it happening to other eles tonight in wvw.. but never happened to me.

in its own way, it’s fun that the only thing that kills me is… me. MG and RTL are responsible at least of 50% of my deaths
