Guild Wars 2

Felt this needed its own thread since its a pretty important change that was reported, but it will likely get buried in the bug and patch note threads.

Basically: since before the patch, elixir U was not working as intended. It said 5s, but only did 4s of quickness.

Now however, frenzy from elixir U works as intended. Giving 5 seconds. With haste and quickening zephyr, still being bugged.

This adds an RNG again to the skill.

May want to re-evaluate the skill since it works differently now.

1s of quickness and 1s of 50% more damage is pretty important.

You mean to say that only when the random buff trigger grants frenzy you get 5s, but zephyr and haste still only give 4s?

I’m a bit confused, because I always thought it would last 5s regardless, you’d just get a random debuff from the other various quickness skills in other professions.

Essentially.

If its frenzy, it lasts 5s.

If its haste or quickening zephyr, its 4s.

Before this patch, it was always 4s, despite the tooltip.

So before, 100% of the time, it was wrong. Now its right 33% of the time.
