Guild Wars 2

Do you guys really think this is an issue? I found in PvE that I could just turn off auto-attack and just not go far enough to root myself when i needed.

I know it is a pain against dungeon bosses but when weighed against the root in PvP I think the root trumps all. Have you ever had to fight a mesmer in PvP? It sucks. The root ability however keeps you locked on to them even as they warp around making their clones. It is the only way for us to kill good mesmers.

Do you guys really think this should change? Because this is the ONLY way of killing good mesmers that I know of.

Sounds more like a targeting exploit to me than intended functionality, to be honest.

i don’t use my 1h sword to attack. by the time i dodge a burst. pull back with hornet sting , cast my eagles and cast call of the wild the timer for changing weapons is generally done and i’m now distanced enough and i can switch to my short bow.

but when i do do that, it’s essentially when i really want to stick my target. sometimes it’s a good fast attack aoe option. and if i’m still on cool down for change weapons i’ll hit someone using auto 1-3 times. then switch and break out with LR + quick shot
