Guild Wars 2

I’m finding it hard to verify but it definitely looks like a lot more than 4-5 aegis being thrown out every time I block. It looks like it might be everyone in 360 range.

I’ve seen a dozen aegis thrown out just because I blocked once.

Can anyone else verify? This is going to be very interesting in zergs/wvw if true.

I already mentioned this in the “guardians new traits suck threads”. Yea it has no target cap from what I understand. At tequatl it proc pure of heart for everyone around me, so I’m guessing it works the same with shattered aegis. Which means shattered aegis will do extraordinary damage in wvw.

I’d love for this to be a thing, but Shattered Aegis is an AoE centered on the broken aegis. The two zergs would have to be right on top one another the moment Communal Defenses actually triggers to get value out of it. Given that random aegis procs from VoC or other guards can mess up the timing, I can’t see it getting much use.

Maybe coordinated groups will abuse it…but then it’ll be patched to have a target limit.
