Guild Wars 2

Basically, do what you did with Shadowfiend. We have so many long casts as it is, having to channel for 1.25 seconds to have our pet do an unreliable long cooldown immobilize or a charge is obnoxious, look at Spirit Weapons. =/

The shadow fiend has an instant cast time. (the minion itself needs to channel though).

So you want use to channel commands for the pets but make the actions instant. I am not sure how this would be better for us since then we already have long cast times and adding more is even worse to me.

I think the OP is saying that rigor mortis (bone fiend active) and the flesh golem charge should both be instant cast like the bone minion/shadow fiend actives.

I can agree that rigor mortis should be instant cast for what it is. I don’t know if I agree with the flesh golem charge being instant cast due to how powerful it is.

Not sure how much clearer I could’ve said it.

But have the command instant for us, while our pet has to channel.

Even if that means adding a slight delay to flesh golem charge.
