This ability’s duration was nerfed some time ago. It was 8 seconds, now it’s 5. Its cast time is so long that I believe its design was to be used preemptively. . It takes about 1.5 seconds to make the line appear, and another 1.5 to regain control of your character (stuck in animation).

Now, I wouldn’t mind the 5 second duration if its cast time was sped up. With its duration nerf, it’s difficult to use it preemptively and using it reactively to get away in a situation like WvW or PvP is impossible due to its lengthy cast time.

I’m not saying it’s a useless ability by any means. Iit still has its uses, but as a #5 it’s pretty underwhelming.

Yea it’s just for holding walls, doors, bridges, and stairs. Assuming your opponent doesn’t just roll through -.- If you manage to pull it off successfully followed by Ring of Warding it is very…rewarding.
