Guild Wars 2

Has anyone noticed when they get revived from down that they suddenly trigger the overload rifle 4 effect. Flew off a cliff once after someone revived me because of this, but happens quite frequently to me when I do down (sometimes launching me into an AOE field or whatever have you). Sometimes I can account for this because I had used say 4 right before being downed… but sometimes I haven’t touched the skill at all and it still happens. Really wierd and mostly inconvenient.

This happens to me a lot because I mash the 4 key while downed. However, if you are certain you weren’t pressing anything, then that definitely is a problem. Very frustrating anyways.

ah maybe it’s stored up extra key presses on the 4 that I’m mashing when down. Even though I don’t press when I revive, I perhaps do it once during the animation of rallying or something. Thanks!

its when u mash the 4key just before you get rallied , it ques up key presses so that’s what happened. it is annoying I know but u need to be more aware of your downs state hp / target hp b4 u go spam happy on 4

The reverse is true as well; plenty of times on my Thief I’ve shadow-stepped immediately after getting downed because I pressed Heartseeker a couple times immediately before going down.
So pressing Net Shot or something a few times in a row before getting downed might cause you to grapple someone.
