Definitely enjoying my Mad-seed aggressive druid build but it’s a little irksome not being able to see the internal cooldown on Ancient Seeds (especially since when I’m throwing around Entagle its hard to know when I proc’d it. Deadly brambles everywhere…). Would it be possible to have it generate a debuff icon on our bar that counts down from 10 seconds to 0 to know when it’ll be available again?

Thanks!!

How are you trying to actively proc Ancient seeds? The skill that you would use to proc it all have cool downs. So based on which skill you used to proc it you know 10 seconds in to the cd its ready again.

Think to many players that once play wow have gotten to use to script and ui change they don’t know how to play other games as intended.

I mean really good players have internal clocks. Just as one should know their keybinds without looking at it one should have a feel for the timing in their rotations and not just spam stuff all of cd.

I would much rather they spend the time on creating a ui that shows boons on the ranger’s pet.

In order to properly understand the big picture,
everyone should fear becoming mentally clouded and obsessed with one small section of truth.

Because it’s not just you doing the knockdowns, dazed, etc… In WvW you’re constantly hitting people who are stunned and such and will proc ancient seeds meaning you don’t know when reliably it’ll be ready again.

I would also love to know when ancient seeds is ready so I could say use barrage when a static field comes up to proc up to 5 players

It doesn’t really need a clock with its short CD.

Asking for a clock will just get a longer CD to justify a clock.

Having a clock is more of QoL issue than a balance one.

Ofcoarse. And they will take a hard look at trait and say,

“well its only 10sec CD. If they want timer we could increase its CD to 15sec to address how toxic the trait is atm and then justify a timer for it.”

Having a UI buff icon like Clarion Bond would be a great QoL change, especially in WvW/group fights. I don’t think having a countdown timer is necessary, it would just be nice to know when it’s ready. As has already been said, your internal clock can get messed up when the trait procs on targets you didn’t CC yourself.
