When I use this skill it says invulnerability so that stops me from taking any dmg at all/? such as condition, stuns, and everyhting else for 3sec?
However I keep getting killed durng the 3sec invulnerability. Is there some information regarding this skill or a bug im not aware of ?

It doesn’t stop any current condition damage. If you have 10 stacks of bleed on you when you start, and those bleeds are doing say 100 damage each during that 3 seconds you will still take roughly 3000 damage. Since most guardians use it at the wrong time you might as well pretend you don’t even have it. It does prevent NEW applications of those conditions, but it doesn’t stop any current damage. This is why runes of lyssa are used so often with that build. Unfortunately they only take effect at the end of the channel, and not the start if I recall correctly.
You are experiencing why guardians are not a good fit with the current meta.
I honestly do not use this skill often for those reasons. All its really useful for is resetting virtues. The 3 seconds are nice. But since i can not take any other actions….
Hell endure pain is much better. We cant even use this as a finisher like the engi do with their elixer S

I think it actually last only 2-2.5 seconds. It can be buggy, I got 100b once doing it. No conditions and me and was not interrupted during the cast. Id kill to get Rampage as one elite, I hate all guard elites.
It stops new conditions from being applied for its duration, but doesn’t stop existing conditions from dealing damage.
RF is still really good in WvW if you have Indomitable Courage. You can get two guaranteed stomps from popping Courage → RF → Courage.
Renewed focus, as stated above doesn’t prevent existing conditions from happening. The existing conditions damage ticks will stopped, and then all basically accumulate dump on you after the invuln period expires.
Renewed focus also fails to work if you dodge/swap weapon while it is channeling. Be wary of this one. You’ll get the invulnerability, but none of your virtues will recharge.

It’s what I always take, but I think many guardians get the idea that it’s similar to the warriors endure pain.
I would suggest they use it less as an invulnerability, and more of a 2 second immunity to crowd control. It’s not the best elite, but it’s sort of the shiniest kitten type of elite.
It renews at the end of the channel, so bombing all your virtues during the immunity is definitely encouraged.
