Guild Wars 2

The focus skill 4 in fire is Flamewall, I skill that I usually don’t cast as I need to be in air / earth more and drop by fire for dragons tooth, phoenix and flame shield. However, with this new patch, fire wall is a fire field which gives fury (30 in fire trait).

Playing around with the fire wall I noticed an annoying bug.
Flamewall all cannot have a skill queued after it, it will go on interrupt cd
Also you cannot change attunement when using Flamewall as it will interrupt the skill

So basically you have to use the skill and do nothing else at all or it will interrupt. This is a huge annoyance as I am trying to go Dragons Tooth -> Flamewall -> Phoenix but queuing Phoenix interrupts the Flamewall. Also using Flamewall and swapping to air to get off 2 and 3 instant casts interrupts the skill.

Anyone else noticed this behaviour, anyone else even use a focus?

Edit: Corrected Fire Wall to Flamewall and corrected bug info (changing attunement interrupts flamewall, not unusable as the wording previously indicated)

Can confirm this bug. Also: Focus is underrated.

Indeed, I use it for burst builds to mitigate some damage while not having to give up utility slots. Basically Imob (sig of earth) dragons tooth phoenix (would be DT FW P but flamewall is bugged) air for burst.

/D adds get away, stun aura and 2 extra kds, but the big hitters take to long / bug out to often.

I added my side of the bug under your post. Hopefully it will get some attention and so will some of the other focus skills

Multiple threads bout this already.

Indeed and the only reason I didn’t find them in the first place was due to the fact that they were labeled Shatter Stone. Because no one cares for the poor focus

+1

I approve any change/bug fixes to buff focus.

Same for shatterstone. (I use it when leaving water, don’t judge me)

Solo.9027:

Same for shatterstone. (I use it when leaving water, don’t judge me)

I do the same, when going back to air, free instant cast attacks and all.

Yes there are multiple threads about these bugs and not one Dev responded as of yet.

Fix these Anet.

Wasn’t this so called " Ty Anet " patch tested at all by you? You responded to that post, but not on these bug issues that are causing problems.
