Guild Wars 2

Anyone notice players not actually getting trapped by dragon maw? Over the last few days I’ve seen a ton of players just run through it or dodge roll out of the trap. I check their buffs to make sure they don’t have stability and most of the time they do not. Just wanted to see if anyone else noticed this or if I am losing my mind.

I died couple of times casting my RF while dude weas just putting condies on me like I was not invulnerable.

RF doesn’t prevent condition damage. Also this thread was about dragons maw. Don’t go off-topic.

I know how RF works I just wanted to point out that sometimes when you cast RF you are still tagged with new condies.

I dont have problems with dragon maw with ppl dodging out.

Ragnarox.9601, i had those issues as well once in a while, not only after the latest patch, ive been killed by melee a few times in RF animation as well.
And ive noticed players commenting the same on TS.

I died from melee too but something is wrong with this skill. Its like 30% chance to fail.

humm i think its some other classes(orskill type) mechanics that in some situation can ignore the RF, imagine where the code of RF get ignored(or does not check) saying players should not take phisical damage.

I think i know what is happening to the clients…. or the skill iteration gets lost in all the back end processing and does not reaches all the clients that are hitting you.

I’ve seen quite a few interesting bugs to support my theory.

(EDIT)yeah, sorry about thread derail :\

Holy hell, talk about a thread derailment.

I have seen many players dodge roll out of dragon maw, walk through dragon maw, or seem to ignore it completely. It is very annoying because it’kitten or miss at best so I don’t want to rely on it.

However when it does work it is beautiful.

I am not sure if lag causes it to fail more often, but last night after reset it almost never worked. I saw players just running through it and dodge rolling out of it constantly. Almost ready to take it off my bar as it is completely unreliable at the moment.

This was most likely lag but I had burning on me, popped RF, popped Smite Condition, but the burn guard had zealots fire active and it applied burn to me.
