Guild Wars 2

Hello,

I tried out this trait today and I do not think it’s working as it should be.

Dark Armor
Gain 400 toughness while channeling.

Channeled skills are a skill type that activate over a period of time. These skills can be spotted by a yellow activation bar that fills when the skill is activated.

I have found out that it only works on:
Axe #2
Dagger #2
Death Shroud #4

Can someone confirm this or is this how it should work?

I also notice that elementalist also have this kind of trait, anyone know if it works there?

It might(?) work on downed 1 as well, but yeah that is all of the abilities we have that channel.

Hm, I thought that everything that got a “yellow activation bar” indicated a channeling skill, how come it only works on those skills?

There is a difference between the 2 bars that your seeing. 1 bar like DS #1 is a cast bar, it is not channeling anything, it has a set time before the skill and complete the activation. The other bar found on the skills you stated are channeling, they are channeling a skill over a period of time, having a effect during the channeling.

Oooh alright, well that clear things up abit
Thanks for the answer.

Underwater combat! Remember that?

Spear 2 and Trident 5 also trigger Dark Armor.
