Guild Wars 2

Not sure if this was a newly introduced thing or has always been like it. Can’t remember for my life xD so I didn’t post it in the bug forum just yet.

Using a Virtue while not in combat stance puts you in it. Don’t recall it being like that, but I might’ve just always missed it.

It’s incredibly annoying tbh and not useful in any way.

does it even matter?

it would make sense for them to put you in combat stsnce as they are meant to be used in combat.

is this a troll post?

Just because i’m giving a boon to someone running by doesn’t mean i want to be in combat stance. Why would you assume this to not be a valid question.
There are plenty of occasions, when I want to AoE cleanse conditions or use stability in general PvE or in a JP for example, that have nothing to do with me being in combat.

It must be really hard to press Z (or whatever you have your sheathe set to) afterward. You have my sympathy.
