Guild Wars 2

Fairly sure it has always worked like this – each time you use Mist Form and you return to the downed state it counts as if you were downed once more when it comes to the downed penalty.

Honestly, it’s one of the strongest downed skills in the game and as such I feel it’s just a balancing factor.

Intentional and completely fair.

The skill is supposed to put you back in downed state and increase your downed penalty. In general you die at 5 downed penalty (that is you have 4 and get downed again)… but with Vapor Form you die at 4, downed -> Vapor -> downed -> Vapor -> dead you shouldn’t be dying by a second use but you do.

Tested, broken, reporting.
