Guild Wars 2

Hey Guys,

I started playing again WvW but did distortion change ?

I noticed that I am taking damaged, getting knocked down, receiving conditions when my distortion is still active. I swore I saw siege dmg ignore my distortions too.

Usually I see invulnerability with 4 secs of distortion.

Thanks!

Idk about CC, but you definetly still take condition damage even while distort

[rest in pieces – stupid post] :P

Distortion is still invulnerable. It has not been changed. You can not be hit with anything while in distortion, for any reason whatsoever.

Blurred frenzy is not distortion, it is blur, an evade.

Previously applied conditions will still tick while in distortion, but you won’t receive any new conditions.

I don’t think that there are attacks you can’t evade/invul…
BUT every field that effects you when you try to cross it still works (staticfield, traited glamour, temporal curtain, guardians knockdown-wall,…)

There IS a way stand 16/17 seconds in an enemy zerg in wvw without dying.

• 2.5s evade – Sword 2
• 0.75s evade – dodge(clone) -> cast mirror images
• 4s invulerable – F4
• let you fall below 50% health
• 1s invulerable – signet of midnight – needs to be really good timed too early: no * shatter reload. too late: death -> spawn illusionary leap
• 0.75s evade – dodge(clone)
• 3s invulerable – F4
• 1s invulnerable – signet of illusions
• 2.5s evade – Sword 2
• 0.75s evade – dodge(clone) -> weapon swap
• 3s invulnerable – phase reatreat (staff 2) + F4 -> mass invisibility + run! :P

The whole thing should get you around 19.25s beeing invulnerable/evade
I only managed around 16/17 i don’t know for sure.

You only take dmg when dropping down to 50% hp

Nice combo there, MGM Only thing bad about it is that the signet distortions are really hard to time due to cast delay. Also, this will be hell to pull off with any amount of skill lag. And you want to have stability during the “fall below 50%” phase, because if you get CC’d during that time it’s GG.

To answer the original question: condition damage will still be ticking, but nothing else should affect you during distortion.

Boundary fields will not hit you through invulnerable.

It’s not a problem since signet of midnight is a stunbreak and instandcast skill

Yeah sorry I only meant for dodges

Maybe you’re just lagging.

My lagg in wvw and some pvp servers makeit almost unplayable :/

i am using that build as for fun build, or for trolling since early of game..
or if ever anyone danced in your blob who is gothic beauty, probably u saw me.. :P

when u evading in BF:

• can be Pulled By Binding Blade if already got chain before BF.
• auras, retalation, chaos armor trigger as regular, ignore evading if BF hits foes

Practically your theory wont work.. where u can get insta death burst in less than 1 sec..

• ranged phantasm dodge dodge F4 4sec invul
• if u ve both signets Mignight and Illusions
• can go Bf then both signets use (still u ll ve interupt chance)
• dodge Mirror images
• then retreat but if they chase u dead..

or with blink which can have %high success

• ranged phantasm dodge dodge 4sec invul (dance)
• signet of illusion 1sec
• dodge mirror images 4 sec (laugh)
• BF 2.5 evade (and save for %50 for retreat)
• blink phase inv (shrug)
• out of combat (wave)
  total 10.5 sec anyway u wll sacrifice ~2sec cuz of lag.. ~8 sec for trolling
  :P

another note is visuall effects can have delay so dont trust it much..
