Guild Wars 2

Deadly Arts “VII” talent – Stealing recharges all skills of one type(venoms, signets, traps, tricks or deceptions)

Is this skill bugged or is there some hidden gimmick to it? I’m using caltrops which is obviously a “trick” then I use steal on someone successfully but caltrops cooldown isn’t always rehashed. Am I doing something wrong here or is there an internal “hidden” cooldown?

Nope, it’s just a terribly designed trait. It picks randomly, so you only get a 20% chance of any type recharging

What do you mean randomly? Randomly between what? It randomly rehashes all tricks, all deceptions or all venoms even if you’re not using any deceptions or venoms??

Looks like that’s it, thanks. What a horrible design really, if I’m only using tricks as my utilities there is an 80% chance that this trait does absolutely nothing heh

Yep, it randomly recharges one skills type, either trick or deception or venom skills. Sounds fun in paper, stupid in reality.
If it were 5-10% to proc, but recharged everything, then it would be awesome.

Not worth it, in my opinion.
