Hello.

Has this bug already been acknowledged? I glimpsed guard and bug forum, so i apologize if repost.

  • Dragonhunter F3 virtue , Shield of Courage.
    This skill is blocking EVERYTHING from EVERYWHERE , instead of just projectiles from front.
    Its basically a 5second shelter, twice with elite recharge.

Explains a lot of “DH OPness”

Edit:
Im not salty, it put the cat instead of five seconds.
I also wanted to “get this bug fixed” as its just so broken that ofc DH can be percieved as too strong with something like it.

If its true,
then Anet is just plain stupid again
10s / 72s block uptime , sigh

Edit2:
I apologize if I may have not tested all angles or if there were chenges to it in meantime.

I also apologize to offending any low tiers defending invulnerabilities with high uptime.
Thank you all for answers, no questions left from my side.

No, currently the ingame tooltip for DH F3 is wrong. It’s meant to block everything from the front of the guardian.

It’s working properly.

I’ll find the ANet response and post it in this thread.

You’ll probably do better if you don’t set you expectation based on the version of Dragonhunter they first revealed in beta.

DH f3 was changed to all attacks from the front long ago.

Ye, even if you hit him from behind it should still block, thats why he has HUGE kitten shield in front of him.

Blocking only projectiles from front would be bad because :
1. cast time
2. cast time
3. only few attacks are projectiles
3. did I mentioned cast time?

F3 is fine as is, its 72 sec cd blocking all attacks from front for 5 sec with cast time.
F2 is bad because 1 sec casting time.

L2p.

I play DH and must say yes this is game breaking. Guardian has with this “bug” 20+ sec block/invulnerability in row without limits.

Also, only with the shield can you attack. Once that is up, you are toast.

Also I’ve confirmed on many occasions that this shield does not block attacks from the back.

It has plenty of limits, like not blocking unblockable attacks, or not blocking from the flanks, or having around 10% uptime.

Why do you insist a skill that is working correctly is a bug?

Works as intended. maybe should at least test it out before going here unloading, mr. salty.
10s? where? you mean unless it’s traited? that also means the DH gave up something for that. If you stop attacking (because the visual cue is soo subtle you know), maybe you can do something in that more than a minute downtime.

A mule doesn’t count. Obviously a thief being salty about getting downed after blindly unload all his resource at the shield even he can clearly see that the shield is currently active.

Don’t mind thieves, they complain so much instead of actually training against DH. Whining won’t help them tho.

But my bucket is almost full of thieves tears….

Hint;

Look for the Big Shield, but don’t tell anyone I told you, cause it’s so subtle that not many know this.

There is indeed a game breaking bug with guard F3, Reaper’s shroud auto can bypass it if they stand close enough to you. Actually got downed that way because I thought it would block and apparently because of the aoe cleave nature of the attack it can bypass even from the front.

Do other Pierce skills that are not projectile also hit? It could be the attack hitting from the front to the back of the character.

if that is true, then traited rifle warrior can rifle butt through it because it makes all of the skills pierce

No.

The Reaper’s auto melee range is 170 and 220 and the riffle butt is only 130 if that makes a difference with reach. Shall try with my friend when I get home.

This has nothing to do with piercing. What is likely happening is the attack hotboxes are beginning in an area where it’s not considered the front of the Dragonhunter despite the character models looking like they’re facing each other. You’re essentially swinging through the character to hit their flank. I’d expect any melee weapon to be able to accomplish something similar.

Unless of course the Necro was using Nothing Can Save You! or the like in which case problem solved.

I have both DH and DareDevil. In equally skilled hands a DH comes out on top 99 times out of a 100. DH is very powerful and the thief class may be the worst class in the game right now at least in 1v1 fights.

“equally skilled” ? just because you’re good at DH, doesn’t mean you are good at thief. I have both also, but definitely thief feels much more fluid and more wins. So bam!

Iv eplayed now, all class elite specialisations, and the most prominent things that need changing are Revenant hammer 2 and Guardian longbow 2, increase the recharge and its fine.
But fix the bugs first for gods sake. Revenant has no underwater, Dragonhunter cant use any new spec skills underwater. Just remove underwater from the game if youre going to leave stuff broken like this.

You mean you haven’t figured out they want to remove it, now that it’s served its purpose of drawing people in?
