That’s my point. And that spot happens to be right next to target 80% of time.

Try not to get downed in the first place Bad comment i know, but we mesmers are all about damage avoidance. That’s what we are good in and we should make use of it.

No, it happens to be right next to your target a percentage of times equal to the “bad spot” target area divided by the maximum reachable area, times 100.

What I find strange is how well this skill works in wvw but how awful it is in pve.

Yeah, avoidance, you know what should #2 downed skill do? Exactly! Avoid.

What? Why couldn’t they just make it something like staff #2 skill – Phase retreat?

its IMPOSSIBLE to avoid being downed.

Boss arent fair, they haven t cd and their aggro system leads them to ignore illusions.

See lava shaman doing in rapid succession on the same target Arrow/aoe/Arrow/aoe because they don t share cooldown.

try to not get downed….

GW2 balance:
A PvE player is supposed to avoid a 1-2 second 1 shotting aoe.
A WWW player is considered uncapable of avoiding a 5,75 second aoe for half his health.

I don’t get downed on the boss fight. I stay in melee range and protect myself using reflects and blurred frenzy. Alternatively, at long range you can simply strafe and the arrow will always miss.

It is very easy to not get downed on boss fights. You just have to be good enough.

Because back in the day there wasn’t a kittening arrow over your head while you had a downed clone up, however people dislike our downed 2 being useful and they slapped an arrow over our head.

Granted, i do like that our allies now can see which one is me instead of watching them rez my clone and leaving me to bleed out and die…

….an l2p ….
As said on shaman 48 if he focus on you its impossible…..
And no i don t waste reflect for the normal phase….

As for other bosses that can hit you during a 0,5 cast time and stuff.

I don t think any experienced dungeon runner can think of going glass cannon and never be downed.
