Guild Wars 2

Posted this in the RANGER BUGS thread in the Bug sub-forum as well. Here is the list again of CONFIRMED bugs post 7/7 patch that still need to be addressed:

GENERAL

• Pets missing baseline 150 stat increase to Power, Precision, Toughness, and Vitality.
• Longbow skills receive full cooldowns when cancelled during the initial cast.
• “Hilt Bash” (Greatsword) actual range is 220 instead of 300 (tooltip).
• “Solar Flare” (Sun Spirit) activation time is faster than other Spirit actives.
• Resounding Timbre does not display bonus boons on “We Heal as One” tooltip.
• Resounding Timbre does not display bonus boons on “Strength of the Pack” tooltip.
• “Strength of the Pack” buff on the Pet uses Lightning Reflexes’ icon.
• Juvenile Marsh Drake selection image does not match the actual Pet.

UTILITIES

• Healing Spring can be placed multiple times (up to 4).
• Healing Spring does not heal the Pet or allies.
• Healing Spring does not activate when used at full health and losing health while inside the trigger area. Player must exit then re-enter the trap area to activate.
• Water Spirit prevents point-capture contribution when active.
• “Sic ’Em” buff removed from the Pet after using F1-F3.

TRAITS

• Quick Draw does not apply to “Whirling Defense” (Axe) unless the cast is cancelled.
• Quick Draw reduces only base cooldowns by 66% and does not include other traits.
• Light On Your Feet actual buff duration is 3s instead of 4s (tooltip).
• Ambidexterity bonus +150 Condition Damage is negated upon teleporting or being teleported without receiving a loading screen.
• Nature’s Vengeance reduces Spirit passive chance down to 70% when traited.
• Natural Healing heals the pet 189hp every 3s instead of 125hp every 1s.
• Natural Healing does not show visible green number floaters on the Pet.
• Go For The Eyes does not apply to [F2] commands when the player is downed.
• Wilting Strike does not apply to [F2] commands when the player is downed.
• Wilting Strike does not apply to the Brown Bear [F2] command “Shake It Off.”
• Beastly Warden does not apply to [F2] commands when the player is downed.

Note¹: Quick Draw will not take into account traits that reduce weapon skill cooldowns such as Strider’s Defense, Two-Handed Training, Lead the Wind, and Axe Training. Tested and confirmed with each trait.

Note²: Whirling Defense will not receive the Quick Draw bonus even with Quickness applied.

Edited to update.

Post it in the bugs section because nobody from ANet will ever read it in this forum.

Are you nuts to think they even read the Bug forum related to ranger?
They only listen to that Abjure team that list a bunch of things to nerf rangers, and ignore all the things that hurt ranger entirely.

If you are willing to keep a list of bugs and update the list when needed, then you should start a new topic for Ranger bugs in the bug forum.

Otherwise, this is fine too.

He posted it first in the Bugs section about 15 minutes ago.

Read the 1st line. Already did. Posting here for those that don’t look at the bug forums (for whatever reason).

He did, the first line of his post even gives the link to it.

Wait… ArenaNet doesn’t really ask those “competitive” players for actual feedback, right?

I seriously hope not. The mentality of those competitive teams are still in high school.

Taunt and LoYF got fixed in light speed because of that Abjure Engineer guy.
The next thing they’re going to “fix” (nerf) would be GS3, which has 2 leaps since launch. Gl with that ranger folks.

I replied to this topic, but the kitten forums bugged out. Let’s just say there are lots of bugs that didn’t make your list.

they fixed strenght of the pack and Heal as one to work with trooper runes, does sick um and others work?

atleast we have half out shouts cleasning a condi , would be nice if they mentioned or told us that all our shouts work with trooper just as a fyi post.

I only took the ones from the recent thread in the bug section. There are plenty of old Ranger bugs that are persistent, but only a couple came to mind. Hilt Bash was listed since someone mentioned it on the bug thread and I was testing Sic ’Em out of curiosity since it was already on my utility bar.

Heal As One – Does not give regen and swiftness when Resounding Timbre is traited.

I love the class but it’s absolutely sad how underrepresented it is with the balance team. It’s neglected proper. I’ll confirm this on the bug forum for rangers.

You can not be serious.

Pimsley.3681:

Just tested it in-game, both PVE and PVP mode. “We Heal As One” does apply swiftness and regeneration when Resounding Timbre is traited. Only the tooltip of “We Heal As One” is not updated when traited (previously noted).

Ok so that’s less bad

Updated to confirm the Ambidexterity bug.

“Sic ’Em” buff removed from the Pet after using F1-F3.

I don’t think it’s a bug since it’s been like this since start. Ranger’s shout does not buff it’s pets, it’s another command like F1-F2-F3. When you use a new command the previous one disapear. (I’m not saying that it does not suck but that how it’s been for ages and probably how it’s intended to be)

still a bug. The command doesn’t even do anything but increase pet damage and movement speed.

Yeah, it’s still considered a bug. The fact that it’s been here since launch only makes it look worse on their part. Commanding your pet should not remove a 10s buff.

Sorry but you’re wrong. If you use “sick’em” your pet will attack your target at the moment you use it.
So it’s exactly how I descride it : a command like any other F command that’s overwritten when you use a new command.
If you use another command while your pet is in “protect me” mode, it will cancel the “protect me” effect, same for “guard” or “lick wound” or whatever command you use on your pet.

Going to have to agree to disagree then, because I still stand by what I said. Sic ’Em’s particular buff should not be removed by another command.

Edit: Just tested it in-game. Using F1-F3 does not remove the buff from “Protect Me” or “Search and Rescue” – only the buff from “Sic ’Em” is removed. Further more, the buffs from “Protect Me,” “Search and Rescue,” and “Sic ’Em” can be stacked as long as “Sic ’Em” is used last.

Sorry, but you’re wrong on that last claim.
