Guild Wars 2

Since the CD on all minions is reduced, I wonder if people would like the option to have Putrid Explosion as a targeted skill so we could use the blast finishers more reliably. Now the bone minions are just randomly standing everywhere else just not where you want them.

I think 2x blast finisher on 16s CD isn’t so bad, or is it?

Keep in mind I’m talking mostly about PvE perspective as I don’t play WvW or Pvp much.

What do you guys think?

I would love if once you activate Putrid Explosion, 1 bone minion would run towards your target before detonating (much like telling a ranger pet to attack).

So never gonna happen, got it.

I have split opinions on this. I realize the desire to more accurately blast (though in PvE it should be really easy unless you are trying to blast a wall field), but anything that makes them move before blasting is a nerf in PvP/WvW.

This is why I wish that all minions (with the exception of jagged horrors) spawn via ground targeting.

I think that would be great for everyone.

I do think it would be good if the explosions and perhaps even the other minions effects (Which are kinda meh atm) were ground targeted.

I wish they would change it so minion builds involved more active play and less “Slot traits and let minions attack for u.”

Since the patch i havent seen a single successful blast floater go off even though they were definitely placed in the field. Same issue with necrotic traversal. The delay makes it awkward enough.

Can we please have something done about these blasts. If we arent going to get any on weapons. At least fix our current ones so we can actually use them reliably! I dont care how its done. Ground target, blast on player location, increased blast radius. Just do something.

Exactly this. Just make it work reliably, that’s all we’re asking.
