I played against a Guardian the other day and it seemed like he could block and hit at the same time. I ask around but no Guardian could tell me how he did that. I hope somebody can help me. Here is the youtube vid:

The blocking starts at~00.12 and ends at ~00.18
Thanks in advance

I’ve encountered this against guardians in PvP too. I play a guardian and I can’t see how they’re doing it. A couple of times I’ve done Whirling Wrath against a guardian and seen nothing but blockblockblockblockblock. Maybe a bug or a hack, or there’s something I’m missing.

Well if he had aegis up that will block while he’s attacking, the. He can immediately activate aegis and get a second block in a row, plus their is an abilit to give aegis at 50% health so it is possible to get 3 awgis’s back to back which he would be able to attack at the same time.

If you look at the video, the guardian blocks about 15-20 times within a few seconds. I’ve seen similar behaviour.

There is only one way a guardian can block more than 5-6 times in succession, and that is our heal skill Shelter which blocks for 2 seconds. This guardian is not running Shelter. Because he is using Mace/Shield he only has one weapon skill available that blocks. That skill is Protectors Strike and that only blocks a single attack. The next thing he can use is activate his virtue, which he didn’t, or the passive once every 40(30s if specced) but the fight is shorter than even 30s so it can’t be that.

Don’t know what to tell you honestly. I watched as carefully as I could and the only skill he activates that blocks is Protector’s Strike which is the single block at 9seconds. Something bugged up.
