Guild Wars 2

There are a lot of instances where I find myself getting stuck, in some cases rooted where movement keys no longer work; you have to use a movement action like staff 5 to get out of it. A simple way to re-create an example of this is, shadow step using short bow 5 and then right after dash (dodge), you won’t move for about a second (the animations will still be going on).

+1 for this post.

I have noticed this not only with the dash dodge but with other daredevil skills as well including vault and bounding dodger. Not sure what causes it and haven’t found a way to consistently recreate this bug but will try your method when I get home tonight.

Eisenwald. So it’s not after short bow 5 then dash (dodge), it’s just before it ends. So shadow step with short bow 5 and just before you come out of that animation dodge; you’ll be rooted for a second.

Happening to me a lot also after dodge(dash) or shadow stepping to and back.
Few times after that root i couldnt even use any of utility skills.

This is ninja nerf to dash – unexpected unsignalised root – you can still port using sb#5 (because sb#5 OP !)

Pretty sure this is a general bug for every class; not just daredevil (although it happens more on thief due to lots of teleports) this is for any evade I believe, including the standard evade.

Warriors always had root problens with GS 5#. Guess now thiefs feel the same drama.

More pressure on devs then.
