Guild Wars 2

Possible bug on shadows rejuvenation, you do not gain your 1 initiative as soon as you enter stealth, tested with cloak and dagger, causing it cost 6 initiative when you land it still, and not 5, I am pretty sure the way it was before with the old trait that got merged into this new grand master, that you got your 2 initiative back upon a successful CnD.
Correct me if I am wrong.

[EDIT] The same thing can be said with shadows embrace, before patch it would remove 1 condi on your first stealth, then 3s later it would remove another if you stayed in stealth for the full duration, so now on a full 4 second stealth we remove 1 condition and regain 1 initiative, before the patch in a full 4 second stealth we would remove 2 conditions and regain 4 initiative, this is has not not been fully tested, just what I have observed/felt from playing since patch.

This is the first thing I noticed since logging in. I hope this isn’t an intended change.

Also noticed, i went in stealth from BP+HS, got 1 condi removed, left stealth and restealthed again…. condis didn’t get removed

Ok I thought I was going crazy, happy I am not the only one…

Kinda a pretty big nerf to be honest, 4 down to 1 initiative, and 2 down to 1 condition removed, and now that we can’t remove cripple immobilize and chill, I duno, that just sucks, I loved being able to stealth and remove immobilize, if you’re stuck in imo, you can cnd to clear it if your foe got to close, or steal cnd, blinding powder, black powder hs, just losing options and tech every patch
at least they fixed bs giving reveal :/

Sigh … nerfs, more nerfs, bugs which are nerfs … gross, it’s killing the viability of a line that’s definitely going to be closer and closer to stupid to choose over CS. “Build Diversity” does not mean what Anet thinks it means.

The Shadow’s Embrace one is particularly.. annoying. lol

anet pls fix this
