Guild Wars 2

To preface this post: I absolutely love Kit Refinement. I think that it adds an extra dimension to using kits.

Kit Refinement works great for a couple of kits like Elixir Gun, grenade, bomb, flamethrower, etc. However, I’m not sure what ANet was thinking when it came to the Med Kit’s effect. Why does it generate a tiny explosion? Shouldn’t it drop 1 medkit or something when you swap to it (on a 10-20 sec cd of course)?

Anyone know if they are planning on addressing this or have mentioned something about it?

Yeah, it doesn’t make much sense to me either. I think it should should drop medpacks or grant regen/fury or something, to go along with it’s regular skills.

The med kit explosion in beta , could remove an enemy boon :P
It seems it was kinda Op , that the Engineer had too many <toys>> :P

iirc the kit explosion counts as a blast finisher or at least use to at one point

Kit explosion does not count as a blast finisher currently. Just tested it. It would have been so ridiculously broken as a finisher since it has 0 cooldown.

If you ask me, they just need to make it a small AoE heal with a cool down.

My guildies think it’s hilarious when I use Kit Refinement and spam the med kit to keep swiftness up. They tell me my engine is backfiring. Oh well, at least it’s comic relief since it certainly isn’t good for anything else except maybe accidentally aggroing the local wildlife.
