Reason for Judges Intervention Change
I’ve seen some people complaining as to why it got changed and they want it changed back as Hammer+JI does not feel good anymore (not that anyone should be using hammer in sPvP after the glacial heart change anyway but thats beside the point).
The reason it was changed and probably not going to be reverted is because of the new WvW map and perhaps even due to some areas on the new PvE maps. JI broke falls and not just minor little jumps but death falls. There was some videos after the WvW beta which showed that along with some weapon swap super jump bug, there were spots in the fire keep where you could fall from above the keep (fire keep is underground) and use an enemy inside the keep to break your fall before you would die. This exploit is the reason the functionality was changed.
Preventing JI while jumping ok but while channeling a skill it simply breaks medi guards so hard
