Has anyone else run into the “Blocked” pop-up when spamming marks into a WvW zerg with Soul Marks traited? I am going to keep an eye on it, but I could have sworn I saw it a few different times.

Hitting someone with an unblockable attack and proccing a blockable effect in the process is most likely what you’re experiencing.

I believe the unblockable part is only the direct-damage, making the condis popping “Blocked” as they are not applied.

That’s exactly what happens. Tested it with a friends guard and sigil of fire. The mark applies the normal damage and conditions, only the dmg from the sigil proc gets blocked.

Everything’s normal then. Nothing more to say.

Well doesn’t that just make all the sense in the world.

Move along, nothing to see here.
