Guild Wars 2

Mirror Blade on GS should give 3 stacks of Might for 10 sec & 3 stacks of vul for 3 sec.
I’ve noticed that it does not tick when you do your opening attack. Leaving your opening flat dry on dps. Note: sometimes it tics, sometimes it does not. It ticks more when your like an inch from your openent. But not all the time. From ranged it does not most of the time. Try it on dummies or npc’s in the mist. Plz confirm if i’m wrong or if link thread if there’s already a post on it. thq

…ticks? What on earth are you going on about?

I mean when it launches & you can see both Vul on enemy & Might icons on the bottom. When it tics. you know, like a clock.

The skill applies the given stack of vulnerability to enemies it hits. The skill applies the given stack of might to allies it hits. There is no ticking, and this is fairly decently laid out in the tooltip text I believe.

I’m still not sure.. you should try it from ranged & melee see if it stacks or not. Cuz me, sometimes it does, sometimes it dont.

Because it sometimes doesn’t hit you…

You need to be within a certain range for it to bounce back to you. It also can bounce to other allies. I cannot remember but I think it will prioritize player characters if they are in range but it there is none in range it will bounce off clones and other minions.

You will see alot of mesmer cast this in point-blank range for a reason. Risk/Reward.
