Guild Wars 2

Feast of Corruption interrupts every necro spell that has casting time and isnt healing spell, instead of waiting for spell to finish its casting. Dont remember if this is new bug or is there since forever, but it started to bug me recently since i self interupted every dagger 4, making me loose or made fights harder than they should be (since i use it usualy just after dagger 4 for best lf/dmg value).

This is huge in fights where every move/miliseconds matter (speaking mostly for tPvP) and its very gameberaking.

LOL

Is the skill broken or do you not know what is going on? Dagger 4 has a cast time which is why it gets interrupted

Some skills allow others to be queued behind them while other skills are aborted. I just do not remember which. It may have to do with prioritization. Stun breaks would have top priority and there may be three tiers, or more.

I do not remember the server taking more than one queued skill, though. Trying to queue two behind one casting causes the middle one to be dropped.

No, only this skill interupt others (from all the necro spells beside healing ones). And also for no good reason. And i tested: press once scepter 2 and while casting press once scepter 3. Its not about queue more than 1 spell. Litteraly no other spell do this, why would than this one do it?

Narkodx: other spells also have casting but dont interrupt each other, so i dont understand what are you trying to say?
And i know whats going on its just when miliseconds matter and you want to cast each spell as soon as possible/right after another, you can easily self interrupt.

Oh I see I misunderstood

You’re saying Feast of Corruption interrupts any skill currently being casted? Including utilites or just weapon skills? Heal and Elite?

Guess I would have to test this but I never truly noticed

It interrupts everything except healing skills. Yeah i also didnt notice until last 2 weeks :P. Thats why it might be new bug, maybe came with lasst story that was aproximately 2 weeks ago (when we got staff projectile speed increase and that stuff if i remember correctly). First i thought i was doing something wrong like not facing the target but aperantly that wasnt an issue.

I am still not home to test this but could it be that Deathly Swarm has a cast time of 1/4 second as opposed to the other skills have 3/4 second cast time – The fact that deathly swarm is faster and has less of a “wind-up” probably makes it get cancelled by slower skills… gonna have to test when I get home

It is not just swarm. I tried it with every utility or elite or weapon skill that has cast time.

ty for noticing, may prove to happen quite often during fights.

thank you for sharing

this is worth testing

It is annoying yes, and worth a fix.

Post this in the bug section.
