Guild Wars 2

I had a ranger shooting right through [Temporal Curtain] tonight. I’m currently running a reflect build with [Warden’s Feedback] traited.

This was at mid in FoeFire. The ranger was on the upper level firing down at me on the ground. The line of sight was through the curtain.

I was hit by auto attack and the first couple of arrows of the rf burst.

The ranger took no reflection damage as far as I could tell.

Temporal Curtain’s high is not nearly enough to be reliable as a Projectile Reflect.
Maybe if you stay next to it you have more chance, but…

Temportal Curtain isn’t tall at all. Especially is the enemy is above you. So next time place yourself inside the temporal curtain. A bit to the side so the curtain is closer to the enemy. It will have a higher chance of reflecting then.

Yeah as said – it was probably going over the curtain to hit you.

Best bet is either just cast an iwarden on them, or stand right next to your curtain – or use ItV to pull them down.

Proper troll reflect builds should be possible once we get evasive mirror and manipulation trait.

this is why small asura mesmer is master race :p

Mesmer guide video explained that the size of the char does not matter. Asura’s sword hits as well as charr’s sword. Sure, we have option to adjust camera to character height, but I’m still wondering this.

Related matter is that in WvW, a ranger can shoot from wall to down at my mesmer, but I cannot use gs to the ranger. Perhaps intentional so that ppl on the wall gets protection. But I remember the rangers etc can hit ppl on the wall.
