Guild Wars 2

Aren’t you meant to be able to use Static Shield whilst doing other things? If Yes, then WHY FOR KORMIR’S SAKE does it interrupt us when someone hits us. It’s like you’re saying, “hey guys, I know you can use this whilst also attacking but really, you shouldn’t use it like that.”

It’s frustrating that when you’re setting yourself up for a knock back whilst blocking with stacking shield, the knock back gets interrupted by the one thing that’s supposed to work in your favour. Please Anet, if you can fix it PLEASE FIX IT!! I want to fail on my own accord, I don’t want to fail because the game makes me fail.

It’s entirely possible that Static Shield letting you attack while using it is one of the few bugs that work in our favor that Anet hasn’t fixed. Overall, I’d even put this low on the list of Engineer’s Priority List of bugs to be fixed – we have one trait that’s never functioned (and the devs denied that this was the case, until people threw numbers in their faces on the sPvP board), turrets don’t work with anything but Deployable Turrets, and those’re just what I can think of at this exact instant.
