Guild Wars 2

Just out of curiosity, what is everyone’s opinion on this trait?
Personally I feel it does need a little love especially since it is uncontrollable and on a relatively high cd.
Thoughts?

Well, it’s the same as any other on-CC trait that every profession has. Amongst them, though, it’s not bad.

great trait that sadly must compete with BI and CD and some other things in that slot.

If it were in almost any other line as a Master or Minor i would hazard a guess that we would see it in a ton of phantasm or PU or random builds, maybe even shatter.

Its a good trait, but where it stands atm, like Swish said, it competes against BI and CD which are much better.

If only… MoA is at adept tier…

Yeah that’s what I was thinking too, I mean for where it is and what its competing against it does need changing whether it be location in the trait line or a buff. It’s a great trait and I have taken to using it a lot recently, but a 90s cd for a master trait is hard to like…

Used to be 90s, but was reduced to 60s in the 12/10/2013 patch.

Perhaps make it mirror the exact duration of the CC received. I’d definitely consider taking it then.

It’s a little on the weak side, but realistically it’s more or less the same as all of the ‘on disable do X’ traits that the classes have. They all really sorta need a bit of a rework.

Oh I didn’t know that. Well I mustn’t have been looking to hard at the trait description :P. 60s isn’t to bad, but I would still like to see further improvements to the trait.
