Guild Wars 2

So as the 1st of October build /release came online just now in Europe I was hopeing Anet fixed this.

When you have more than x2 [Phantasmal Duelist] out
and you do Auto attack with [Ether Clone] one clone will replace your 3rd Phantasmal Duelist.

I thougt, that Clones could never replace a Phantasmal…….or am I beeing misled here?

this is so insanly annoying when doing dunguen, as most times the mobs /bosses hits one of your phantoms, and your Ether Clone replaces another Phantasmal Duelist.
you go from 3 Phantasmal Duelist to 1 in the blink of an eye.

Clones will replace other clones if one is available, but if you have three phantasms summoned, the oldest gets replaced.

^ Clone never replaces a phantasm.
EDIT: I tried this, it didn’t happen to me.

What Loafers says is correct. A Clone will always prioritize replacement of another clone when it is summoned, but if one is not available then it will shift to a Phantasm to ensure it spawns correctly.
