I’m looking at adding mantra interrupts to my build (Mantra of Distraction). Thanks for any help on these.

What happens if you activate the mantra when:
- the opponent is blocking
- the opponent has aegis on
- the opponent is evading (e.g. blurred frenzy)
- the opponent has just gone into stealth (assuming you lose target – does it pick a new target if auto-target is on)
- the opponent is dodging
- you are in the middle of a dodge

I’m assuming you can’t activate if stunned, dazed or feared.

I have tested that you don’t need to be facing the target.

Thanks much!

- the opponent is blocking

You hit their block.

- the opponent has aegis on

You hit their aegis.

- the opponent is evading (e.g. blurred frenzy)

They evade it.

- the opponent has just gone into stealth (assuming you lose target – does it pick a new target if auto-target is on)

It will pick a new target. I don’t believe it needs a target though, so even with no target it will still waste a charge.

- the opponent is dodging

Dodge = evading

- you are in the middle of a dodge

It’ll activate fine.

I’m assuming you can’t activate if stunned, dazed or feared.

All mantras can be activated at any time, under any conditon. You can be launched, feared, stunned, dazed, evading, knocked down, even falling off a cliff, and they will activate.
