Guild Wars 2

That or apparently everything in game reveals me now including Reapers?

Anyone else getting revealed by Pulmonary Impact?

Yes if you stealth and PI proccs you get revealed

So dumb. What’s the point of giving something like that to a class whose main defense is stealth? If I cloak and dagger steal into someone and interrupt them, I can now say bye bye to my stealth :/

Why am I not surprised by this?

Impaling Lotus (condi dodge) is way worse. It sho?uldn’t shoot out anything in stealth…

PI was clearly meant to increase the damage of low stealth builds.

• Staff
• P/P
• S/P

All of them actually can have enough defense to make use of it out of stealth.

I would figure it would be good with S/D too though as you get a daze on stealth. Guess I have to respec… again… unless this is unintended, in which case, lemme explode some hearts without committing suicide ANET!

Yeah I just take the condi cleanse on dodge for added sustain due to so many condi’s just flying around now.

Not experiencing a problem with this really. I think the delay is just catching people out and bringing them out of stealth – something that more players will get used to over time. A bit like when I still see other Thieves drop Choking gas and then hop into stealth and I just dip my toe in it and BOOM hello Mr. Thief! Dropping any sort of pulsing damage or a delayed spike such as Pulmonary Impact should be done with care if you are relying on stealth as a primary source. This goes for Mesmer too where a staggered shatter can reveal you and cause problems. It’s just something you have to play around.

Yeah, just take Escapists Absolution, since it can be a problem in clutch situations (esp in PvP; 4s reveal), or just play a non-stealth build.
