Guild Wars 2

I thought this was pretty common knowledge not to be fixed long ago… I even submitted a bug report on it some months past. Yet it still happens and still needs not to.

For those who don’t know:

-If you throw grenades at someone on a destructible wall in WvW, the grenades fall inside (and presumably detonate?).
-If you throw grenades from a destructible wall, naturally they hit even the tiniest lump in front of your feet and explode.

But on the plus side, mesmers still have an AOE pull which works through obstructions. Naturally.

You should put [BUG] in front of the article title in ordered to get noticed.

Noticed this aswell. Never thought of it as a bug tough..

Me too. Please edit the topic and write [BUG] in front of the title.

Title edited for whatever it’s worth. I doubt they’re unaware of it so much as don’t think it’s important though, unless the bug reports in-game are often overlooked.

lol. I would hope nobody decided for some reason this would actually be a good idea.

highly annoying bug.
You go to assault a tower with people lined up at the top raining down projectiles but grenades seem to get sucked into a void on destructible walls.
Normal walls are no problem; they’ll explode once they make contact.

i probably hadn’t noticed it because i stopped using grenades for a while. giving this a bump.

Our mortar elite suffers from this bug as well.

Grenades and mortars are my main way of getting AOE on walls, and this bug is a right pain. Every patch I hope this gets fixed, but nope.

Its a bug that happens when the splash-reticule of the grenade is overlapping with the merlons (those raised things on top of the wall where defenders can take cover behind)

Its been bugged for a long time, as long as i can remember infact. Grenades just fizzle and dont do anything.
As far as i can tell, this doesnt apply to other professions. For example my Elementalist and Necro can place GTAoE just fine on the merlons and they dont fizzle. For my Thief i even use it to sort of extend the range of the shortbow.

Same thing happens with clusterbomb, and its just not the merlons, the entire wall and door will eat the projectile once the bug kicks in. Happens much more often on t3 walls. Fortunately the flag bug still works….
