So I logged onto thief the other day and found out that certain classes (thief, ele) can ignore the supposed launch created by this skill and escape. Is this intentional or a bug?

well theres a list of reasons a blockable cc wont work.. immunity, stability, aegis (blocks) and as mentioned before: passive stun breaks. just time ur uppercut right when the enemy has less potential of avoiding it. mid-port (steal, infr signet) can help u doing so.

Thief, Elementalist and Mesmer being able to get out of Impact Strike is intended. The downed skill 2 for all those classes can be used even while stunned. If you’re trying to Impact Strike a Thief, you can use a Shadowstep skill (Steal or Infiltrator’s Signet, most likely) to pursue them after they teleport away to land the finish, but for Mesmer or Elementalist, you’re just out of luck unless they screw up.

any stun break ends the launch (or daze) from the impact strike chain

also all teleport skills in this game can be used during the loss of character control even if they cant break stuns, elem’s mist form isnt a teleport but its the best downed ability in game so we just have to deal with it
