Guild Wars 2

i’ll use the phantasmal duelist skill as the example (pistol 4, phantasm skill, 20 sec cd)

in the dueling line, trait IX brings the cooldown down 20% which brings phant.duelist to 16 seconds.

in the illusions line, trait X brings down the cooldown on phantasms 20%.

Should this bring the cooldown from 16 seconds down even more? If it IS supposed to…it’s not. Testing it on the dummies in the mists. In fact, removing trait IX (from dueling) and keeping trait X (from illusions), doesn’t effect the CD at all.

I could have swore when i was testing this with a friend the other day it DID bring the cd down and it was just a tooltip error. what the freak.

I believe it just made the phantasms attack 20% faster, not decrease the cool down

While both Illusions 25 (Celerity) and the individual weapon traits decrease the CD on the summoning ability by 20% each, Phantasmal Haste reduces the CD on the Phantasm’s skill by 20%.

As in: they attack faster.

It’s quite buggy for a fair few Phantasms however, check http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Phantasmal_Haste .

…and read the discussion section, that table is quite wrong apparently.
