Fix Torch 4 Targetting PLEASE
Yes to the targeting not sure how they could “actually” fix it to work with how the game functions. Leave the blue fire alone tho please I always loved the fact that guardian flames are blue.

Yes please! I love Blue Fire too.
But everyone who got the legendary torch now shoots something which is barely noticeable. Would be cool in pvp if the weapon was suitable for it.
Basically, you want Rodgort skin ok but forget to shoot the normal flame, because F you that’s why.
As to how to change it, make an explosion centered in the player or something radial projected out of you but that’s a suggestion. I don’t know HOW to fix it.
An idea should surge from here
I dont know about you, but it works as intended in my stormtrooper themed guard.

The problem with torch 4 and moving is that 3/15 times you cast torch 4 if the enemy moved 1 pixel to the right the skill will travel to hit something else on a different galaxy and I’m sure most ppl have noticed this aswell.
That made my day

Code is code. It’s whether or not the man hours is within Anet’s budget for just 1 off-hand weapon. In the end, they decide if it’s worth 1 post every year or if they should work on that 3 post item they get every month.
In terms of implementation, ask yourself what it does and why. It currently has a very limited eye sight and follows the target 100%. The projectile only sees the distance and direction and calculates the interception, only it doesn’t fact check itself as to whether or not the target will be anywhere near that area.
You’d need to set a couple extra perameters to make the projectile work smarter. One parameter can be a circular area about 120 radius around the target at all times. Crossing it one way then going back the opposite direction can fact check all your abilities to tell them the target is strafing.
Parameter two, the area threshold the projectile calculates to determine the distance between each strafing motion. From there, the rest of the calculation is just statistical averages. If the projectile misses, it’ll at least be within the radius/area of the target rather than in another galaxy.
Or option#2: Make the projectile faster, but long distances still effects the hit rate. – just a placebo effect at best.
Or option#3: Make it a skill shot like LB#3… done.
The best & most cost effective option.

Refloating this until they fix the skill
true it misses its target at times…seems to be affected by ground elevation too…as in a pebble on the ground blocks it I think…or maybe I tripped on the pebble and the fireball went into the ground…

Fire it point blank and it will get ported into another dimension.
While we’re complaining about torch 4, can we mention torch 5 as well? I really wish it removed condis from you too and not just allies. As far as wvw roaming goes and how out of control condition builds are there, If you think you have enough condi removal, you’re wrong and need to add more.
Torch 5 is that way since guards can’t have a skill without a drawback or counter.
