Hello there!

After a long while I have returned to use focus in pvp with my Necromancer. I noticed couple strange things on the focus skill called Spinal shivers.

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Spinal_Shivers

The tool tip states that the skill is unblockable but I have noticed more than once that it gets blocked by player skills. Latest blocked happened with engineers shield block (sorry, don’t know the skill name!). Has it always been like this? Is it actually not unblockable or is it a bug?

It’s been doing this for a long time, I’m honestly surprised it hasn’t been fixed yet.

Thanks for the info! Ugh.. another bug to the long long list! Hopefully it will be fixed in near future! (I fear that we might receive a tooltip “fix” instead )

It’s like Soul Marks is supposed to make marks unblockable, but they still get blocked. Us necros get these bugs that really affect our skills usage.

Is this still the case?

Same, duels a guard buddy not too long ago, kicked my butt until I put on soul marks and just laughed whenever he started to block.

I saw blocked messages less than 2 weeks ago. I’ll have to test it some more, I took Soul Marks off because of it.
