Guild Wars 2

The bug is as follows, I’ll will be in a fight and I’ll use my healing mantra, whether charging it or just using the charge, and it will automatically use my cleansing mantra. If the cleanse mantra has charges, it will consume a charge (although I’m not sure if the mantra actually does a cleanse or not), otherwise it will constantly reset the cleanse mantra on cd, renewing the cd to 20 seconds each time I hit the heal mantra.

It doesn’t happen every time, and I can’t seem to pinpoint why it happens. I’ll be attempting a video of it, but as I stated, it appears random to me.

The build:

dom: II, I, II
duel: I, III, I
insp: II, I or II, I or III

utilities: mantra heal, blink/feedback, cleanse mantra, mantra of pain

Anyone else having this issue or know how to fix it?

It’s a bug in Mender’s Purity, the first Minor in the Inspiration line. Nothing you can do except a) not use Inspiration or b) not equip the cleansing mantra.

yeh, waiting for fix … it’s been 2 weeks now.

Why would you use Cleansing Mantra in the first place, if you already use Inspiration Spec(Menders Purity) and Mantra Heal (with Harmonious Mantras from Duelist tree) ??
Or is it simply that people doesnt read ability/trait descriptions?

<>Menders Purity ’’casts’’ Power Cleanse each time you use Healing Skill on a 1 Second cooldown (In total you can clear 6 conditions within 3 seconds).

And Mantra Heal in general has 10 second cooldown,
while Cleansing Mantra has 20 sec CD, cleansing same amount of conditions, without any healing.

Considering that you run usual group, but including you (war/guard/2xELE+Mes)
Eles can also easily clear conditions,
So I see absolutely no reason why would you need Power Cleanse.

Or are you going to tell me that having 1 or 2 less ‘’Mantra Strength’’ from Duelist will be such a DPS loss, … which will make you fear for your life next time you cross the street, as you wont know when an angry meta elitist will want to drive you over for that…

Secret Tip: (You gain 2 stacks of Mantra Strength(from Duelist ‘’././1’’) when using Mantra Heal charges, since Harmonious Mantras consider Menders Purity as an additional spell cast)

No reason, maybe if you’ve traited mantras for aoe healing? Or maybe if you want more condition removal than provided by mender’s purity? Or maybe you just want to look unbelievably foolish whilst making incredibly sarcastic posts on the forums while advocating for the dismissal of an egregiously bad bug…

If you ‘ve ever had the misfortune of trying to 2 man some of the condition damage bounties for guild bounties, you’ll realize you’ll need all the condi clear you can get. And we still can’t beat shaman or komali unless we happen to stumble upon them at a waypoint. We don’t even try against tarban.

For the rest of the the responses, I’m glad people are at least aware of it. I wish the search function would work so I could look this stuff up….
