Thanks so much for these guides. I’m gonna be honest, around 90% of the mesmers I play against in sPvP don’t know these tricks, but I don’t mind. It gives me a HUGE competitive advantage and a mobility boost.

I started testing staff… when I was running in EotM, in the northest wall of the blue keep area, I surprisingly phase retreated to top of a small watch tower on the wall.

Would be nice to know all blink, sword swap, and phase retreat spots in WvW and in dungeons.

I think there’s lots of spots in the vids that the devs lockout. Some of them you cant phase retreat no more.

bad news, HOT might fix most of these “spots”, check it out:

This will affect multiple classes, but worst for Mesmers.

Note how it’s more about vertical teleports, rather than horizontal teleports.

I think Phase Retreat will remain fine. Blink and Shadowstep however… :<

And well, I personally have no idea what might be affected and what not. What counts as a horizontal teleport, and what counts as a vertical one?

I’m so worried. I’m like worried about everything.

Why is it being nerfed? It’s an appropriate way for light classes to have increased mobility. I just don’t get it.

Well Thieves are going to be hit quite hard by the next balance patch, following the Chinese Patch Notes. But I hope Phase Retreat won’t suffer from this, though

You can definitely use phase retreat to get on top of the ledges at mid on Forest now. I literally SCREAMED when it happened, because everyone knows you can only get there by blinking from a tiny point on the ramp.

Being able to blink up there so easily is so kitten good.

I haven’t yet tested ileap, but I’m assuming that also works up to the ledge? Will be nice to be able to surprise burst people who try to snipe from the ledges now.
