I realize that Deathshroud is a special skill and all but why can we not see our cooldown timers for our normal utilities? There is many times where I use DS to buy time until my heal comes up. I fail to understand why we cant even view our normal weapon / utility skills while in DS.

Is there a reason why it is like this or is it to make DS more difficult to use?

Death Shroud was originally our downed state. Can you see your slkill timers, buffs, or debuffs when downed?

But popping back in DS only to find out, no that 40s cooldown isn’t finished and still has 10s to go. You planned around using Life Transfer maybe to heal some allies, maybe to kill all a mesmer’s phantasms and clones. Now you can just exit DS and have wasted time and LF, or you could blow the rest of your DS cooldowns just so you didn’t waste time and LF.

Why shouldn’t we be able to see our DS abilities? In my eyes its the same as not being able to see our conditions and buffs while in DS

because part of “mastering DS” is counting your Mississippi’s kitten

By this point I think most of us have “mastered DS”. At least I know now when to use it, when to exit, and I can usually time the cooldowns fairly well. I know you were being sarcastic but it these little UI things are starting to bug me.

Lol Dread you win.

If there would be one thing Anet could give me for Wintersday would be the ability to see cooldowns and conditions in DS.

Seriously Anet I swear I’ve been a good little Necromancer this year. : )
