Okay so if you look on the sPvP thread under Illusionary Leap Disabled while stunned. I am having a very heated argument with someone that
A. Wants illusionary leap to get some form of nerf because the swap breaks stun and he doesn’t see that as fair because we can do it so often and the tool tip doesn’t mention it.
B. Wants phase retreat to not be used while stunned because while it doesn’t break stun it moves us out of melee.
I have told him several times that these are instant cast abilities and that is why they work while stunned because this is universal to all instant cast abilities whether they break stun or not. So I’m thinking that to get them to not work while stunned Anet would have to do some serious fancy foot work to change that. So his rebuttal was increase the CD to match say Shield Bash on a Warrior which is 25 seconds. That would mean that on a staff mesmers would only have one skill available aside from auto attack under 20 seconds which is iWarlock which only does decent damage if the target has lots of conditions. Please tell me I am not alone in seeing this as ridiculously hurting mesmers especially staff mesmers because our cooldowns have gotten nerfed there across the board once. And the fact that he has an issue with iLeap and swap a skill that works 50% of the time if the stars align just baffles me So am I being unreasonable here?
