Guild Wars 2

I must say, I’m enjoying the tome changes, it’s nice knowing I won’t be interrupted while using it, while I like The Renewed Focus skill as its better baseline its still an enjoyable change for dungeons.

I only have to major gripes with this skill:

When tome of courage ends I get stripped of ALL my protection duration, not just the one granted by wielding the tome, be it the one from Protective Spirit or outside sources. I’m not sure if this intentional or not, but could you take a look at it? maybe remove only the portion granted by the tome only?

Second is the Purifying Ribbon, this skill acts weird, if I have no target it flies off wherever it pleases, often times not curing any conditions. I have to awkwardly target another friendly party member while dodging and using Heal Area, sometimes I lose target -for whatever reason- and the problem arises again. Maybe if the ribbon bounced from me always then it bounced to another target (giving priority to allies).

That’s all, anyone wanna add something else?

I was actually going to make a thread about Elite Focus, the way stab intervals needs to be tweaked. Right now it has 15 second intervals of stab for a total of 30 seconds.

Lets say you use Courage or Wrath and a thief immediately uses Larcenous Strike, or something happens to strip or corrupt the boon. You now have to wait 15 seconds to get the stab back. I find this extremely unfair, since tomes already make you very vulnerable.

Yes, there needs to be counter play however the interval is too long. Ten or five second intervals would be much more forgiving and useful. It still allows for counter play, but you’re not at such a disadvantage.
