Just wanted to tell you that CS is broken since the last “bugfix” patch a few minutes ago. It now lasts only 1.5s regardless of the illusions shattered…

Wish you nice 2 weeks until they fixed it … Q_Q

Greez!

The continuum rift gets destroyed after 1.5 sec. The buff has the correct duration.

EDIT: to clarify: the buff has 6 sec duration with 3 illusions, but since the continuum rift gets destroyed the duration of the buff is irrelevant since it will then be immediately cancelled.

^No this is not correct

It is supposed to last 1.5 sec with 0 phantasms and last longer with 3 phantasms.

It is now lasting 1.5sec regardless of phantasms WHICH is not what the bugfix was for.

Let’s hope this will get fixed soon, this is a huge hit to the class mechanic.

I’m already in bed (EU, yay!), but had to log on the forums to share the pain with you guys.

Anet, I don’t know what changed in your testing practices, but this is shameful.
You can’t go live with such enormous, game breaking, bugs in a build that is supposed to change/fix only two small things…

The biggest issue is that we actually are totally garbage till they fix, so it’s not a marginal thingy, we’ve lost our base spec mechanic with an unusefull bug fix

Yet again Anets lack of proper testing is shown up. GG. This obviously needs to be hotfixied.

Because the ranger change was game breaking at least for pvp. It needed to be fixed. Not sure why the urgency for the mesmer fix.

Such an obvious error that you would have seen it right away when you ever did a simple test, i.e. pop some illusions and shatter them. Obviously they didn’t test. These folks are the kind of people who write an essay and turn it in right away without even looking at it.

Everytime they go and “fix” something, they break it. Look at iWarden or temporal curtain.
It’s amazing.

Same here. I decided to try my chrono at fractals, and noticed I was blowing it royally. I thought I was screwing up, until I went to test this against a static enemy, and have come to find that I am not to blame.

I can’t believe this. it’s like they don’t even test there stuff.

There is decent chance that this change is intended, but wasn’t meant to go through right this second. Don’t be surprised if there’s a message in 6 hours calling this a feature. Be ticked off, but not surprised.

EDIT: Just saw the bug forums. Never have I been more glad to have been wrong. This is definitely a bug.

I don’t have opinions. I only have facts I can’t adequately prove.

gaming breaking in PvP? You mean that game mode that ANet tried so hard to make it as esport but viewership is so low that other kiddie games streams are beating it?

I guess I am not the only one then.

Worked fine yesterday and when I went back to PvP matches today my build which is pretty much dependent on the added damage i get from CS is completely useless.

So yeah – chrono build is a complete no go at the moment. Costed me a couple of games before I realised it wasn’t me playing so badly today.

Someone from Anet must have noticed this already… Right?

Thanks to my illusions this combat is nothing but a stage scene.
You should prepare for your great finale.

A dev said they’re working on it, post is in the bug forum.
It’s still disgusting that they’re not reverting the change for now as it’s a major issue.
