Guild Wars 2

Hey guys!

I was playing around with HGH build including Elixir U. I found that when drinking Elixir U while using another skill, Poison Dart Volley for example, it gets interrupted. I think this is not intendet since it does work properly on using haste while doing Pistol Whip on thief for example.
It seems to interrupt every skill, also Elixir H.

Greetings Fvux.

The wiki shows “bug” on that skill. It is a stun break and it may be that the stun break was poorly coded to break even your own skills!

…That would be really weird, given that all stunbreaks are likely the same function, called by the skills.

Then again, this is the same crew that managed to release a half-patched Rocket Turret.

If I remember right, Elixir U used to not be a stunbreaker, and had a cast time like other elixirs.

AFAIK it’s a common bug for skills that get changed from cast time → no cast time. Time gets taken out, but the game still thinks there is one and interrupts whatever you’re doing anyway.

I have tested this on many skills now and all seem to interrupt. I think it is really annoying. Havent done any deep research in it of how this problem happend or when. Please fix this.

This problem is old, like really old.
I got used to simply cast it right before I burst.
