Guild Wars 2

I would just like to question other’s experiences on this as I just got into an argument with someone when I stated I was blocking melee attacks with this ability.

He insisted that I was either full of crap, or that I had found some sort of glitch. I told him the tooltip was not reliable evidence since of a lot of stuff was being tweaked and tested, but he claimed he had been killing DH players all day when they popped it, 2 of his friends had tested it, he had tested when he made a DH and that none of them had seen it block melee attacks.

So what do you guys say? is it blocking melee for you? Do you think its intended or someones mistake?

For this BWE Shield of Courage was changed into a Block from the front, no matter melee, projectile or instant range.
So yes, it’s working like that and it was intended

It blocks all attacks as intended, I was also acused of hacking xD But I like rivers of tears :P

also blocks AoEs
