Guild Wars 2

hi
didn’t know if to post this here or on warrior forum-
can a warrior rally and get full health back by killing a phantasm? – just i was wvw with a warrior and i’d put him down but he would then rally and one hit me put me in downed then kill me before any of my downed skills (except #1) could be used. reminded me of the walking dead films
Any help on the matter of killing a warrior once downed would be greatly appreciated

Warrior’s #3 downed skill allows them to get back-up and fight temporarily. For 15 seconds they can attack, but they die at the end of it. There is a chance that when they kill an opponent they’ll remove the effect and stay alive and there is a trait which makes this a 100% chance.

They have an orange aura around them while this is under effect. It works very similarly to the Memser’s Illusion of Life utility skill (even the same orangish/yellow aura), except Warriors are defeated rather than downed when the effect ends.

Thankyou dastion
The warrior was hitting me with throw rock and then hammer toss then rallied, hit me downed me then killed me within a couple of seconds, there was no orange glow that i could see. so i wondered if they rallied and killed a phantasm would that have put them back to normal – and if thats the case then lesson learned not to have any phantasms up when a warrior goes down

No they can’t rally from phantasm or clone. He may of had alot of damage on another player that died to rally. Or in wvw hit a white mob to rally. Or he used his skill to rally for 15 seconds and by killing you stayed alive. The orange glow may of just glitched.

nope there was nothing else he could of targetted only me and my clones-
So the answer is just to survive for 15 seconds then the warrior should drop dead ?? (as long as nothing else killed)
My computers not the best and doesn’t always show everything- thats why i prefer trying to 1 vs 1 (or me vs many as the case is)
Does this effect show as an icon so i know to look out for it??

Yes the effect shows as an icon. Once a warrior is down, summon clones/phantasms then create distance between him. Then just kite him for 15 seconds. Once he’s popped vengeance, short of good fortune, he’s dead.

just pop invis and run off and wait for his loot bag to drop

Things get ridiciulous when there are lot’s of trash mobs around and the warrior has the trait which gives him a 100% rally chance when killing something with vengeance. Warriors kill mobs so fast, you can’t prevent it after he uses vengeance. Looks like a simple 100blades is enough to kill a mob.

I once fought a warrior who did that trick 3 times in a row. When he was down for the 4th time I finally managed to stomp him.

But what’s even worse are rangers under water with downstate healing from their pet. You can’t stomp under water, the pet outheals your damage and and the healing continues even if the pet is already dead …

^ CC the pet, continue killing ranger.

Honestly, even a dead pet heals his master, so how do you CC a dead pet?

I’ve tried CC-ing the downed ranger, I’ve tried dragging the pet away with Illusionary Anchor (trident #5), and I’ve tried disrupting them both by pulling them into a Vortex (spear #5). It may stop the healing for a second or two, but that’s just delaying and not solving the problem.

Please note, the ranger can still switch pets and use his F-skills while in downstate. wtf? That’s like using my shatter skills while in downstate. Now that would be fun …

I wouldn’t complain about the unstoppable pet heal if the amount of healing wasn’t so friggin insane high. You can’t out-damage it, no matter what you do.
