Guild Wars 2

Correct me if I’m wrong, but did Anet stealth add projectiles to Infiltrator’s Arrow (SB 5) and Shadow Shot? (D/P 3) There’s a pretty obvious dark line that shoots out to guide the skill that I don’t think was there yesterday.

That’s been there as long as I can remember. If you use an incinerator, the SS is easy to see. And if you have Dreamer, it’s visible on IA.

I’ve noticed this too, previously when i used SS5 i didn’t see a projectile. (i don’t have the dreamer) and now it’s very obvious.. so yeah, ninja added..

This has been there forever.

Shadow shot projectile has always been there, but infiltrators arrow has not. With dreamer you were able to see the sb5 arrow but with regular weapons you couldn’t for the longest time. So yeah ninja fix.

IA has also had it forever. This is not a recent development. It has always been affected by projectile destruction/reflection.

I was speaking of a purely visual update of a projectile firing, not that IA was a projectile itself, but I should have specified. And yea, I do remember SS having a visual before now that I think about it.

It’s new to me that they added this to infiltrator’s arrow, makes me kinda sad, because it’s a nerf when attempting to juke.

What about the casting speed of infiltrator’s arrow? is that the same you think? i feel a little slower, maybe because of the arrow animation addition after uptade?

You can go here and click on Shadow Shot to see the projectile that’s been there even before launch. Also Infiltrator Arrow is shown to have a projectile in the Cluster Bomb video.

I was happy about being able to SEE my Infiltrator’s Arrow projectile.
Yes, many people say that it will make you less unpredictable.
But oh come on people Sizer plays with Bolt/Incinerator and I don’t see anyone whining how it makes his moves more clear to see? Because clearly telegraphs are for the greater good?

It was always there, just invisible I believe.

The projectile from Infiltrator’s arrow was there since launch, then, some months ago it was turned invisible (probably a glitch from a patch). Now it just have been made visible again.
