Guild Wars 2

The Mesmer #3 staff skill “Phantasmal Warlock” goes on cooldown and does nothing if used against an invulnerable foe. I ran into this when up against a WvW camp supervisor who still had the “Righteous Indignation” buff up.

Note that I don’t mean that the skill does no damage, it doesn’t do anything at all. It’s almost like they expanded the “illusions fail on blind” to include invulnerable enemies.

I haven’t gone through other Mesmer skills, but I wouldn’t be surprised if there were others that are now broken. Has anyone spotted anything else like this?

It has been like this for a long LONG time now. Going invulnerable is a way to counter phantasms. Working as Intended.

Yeah, you can’t summon your phantasm on an invulnerable target.
This is not a new thing and it’s working as intended, not broken.

They will all fail.

In my opinion they should still produce a phantasm, it just should hit for 0. Doubt it will be changed, it’s been like that forever.

Uncategorized fractal. Been like this forever. Yup.
