Guild Wars 2

Shadow Protector, Not effected by boon duration, and if you already have regeneration active, it doesn’t even grant more, no other trait in the game is like this, why Shadow Protector?

Shadow Protector’s Regeneration should go off every time you stealth, and should also be affected by boon duration/regeneration duration.

Bountiful Theft, Not effected by boon duration, its 15 seconds of vigor regardless, it used to be 30 seconds but got nerfed to oblivion.

Vigorous Recovery, Not effected by boon duration, its 10 seconds of vigor regardless.

i bug reported this the first week the game went live.

its a shame it hasnt been addressed.

With 20 in Acro, I get 17 seconds of Vigor from Bountiful Theft. I did not see an increase on Shadow Protector or Thrill of the Crime, but the duration does add a second longer to the Swiftness and and about 2 seconds Power of Inertia. Also, the only time I’ve see Shadow Protector stack with another regen is when combined with Hide in Shadows, you will end up with 9 1/4 seconds of stealth (20% boon increase), but that’s it (in my experience).

It seems to be hit or miss, because I got it from Thrill of The Crime, but I don’t get it from Vigorous Recovery, its always 10 seconds, but my Thrill of the Crime went up to 13 seconds.

Thats because the Regeneration from stealthing happens before the regeneration from the heal is applied, the stealth happens before the regeneration boon heal does.

Hide in Shadows. (This all happens in 0.3 seconds.)
1. Stealth First. (applies regeneration/stuff.)
2. Heal Second.
3. Applies Boon Regeneration Third.

20 points into acrobatics will extend shadow protector to 6 ticks; vigorous recovery has allways worked like that; steal boons are affected by acrobatics; shadow protector seems to work only with HIS; if shadow protector stacked in duration, it would be overpowered in tandem with cloak and dagger, bear in mind that it gives regen to every one around you, and stealthing every 5/6 secs is easy and virtually uncounterable, im pretty sure its intended design.

Then they need to nerf the traits of the following classes to be like that.
- Necromancer
- Elementalist
- Guardian
- Engineer
- Warrior

To also not stack with eachother, I think it is overpowered.

All the following classes above can give themselves and there whole group infinite regeneration due to there traits stacking.

Thieves is the only one that does not work this way, and ours isn’t nearly as long as theirs, how is this overpowered?

Vigorous Recovery should be effected by boon duration as well, otherwise you should nerf all boons that grant vigor from everyone and make them not effected as well.

There should not be a beta or meta, you have to have one or the other.

Hitting a CnD every 6 seconds is really hard as well, especially if your not in SPVP, but the regeneration heal is very little, you would be bound to miss atleast 1 though.
