Guild Wars 2

With both Lead Attacks and Sleight of Hand slotted, still only showing a recharge rate of 15% on the paper doll.

Bug or am I missing some sort of odd math here?

You probably didn’t re-select your Trickery trait line after logging in after the patch. The minors automatically activate when the trait line is "selected". The patch automatically set your trait lines for you to replace your previous build, but because they are not "selected," the minors do not activate. It’s a bug. Just deselect the trait line by selecting another one that is not in either of the other two slots, then re-select Trickery, and your minors will be activated. Do this for each trait line. You don’t have to do it each time you log in, just once after the patch.

Thank you for the reply. Unfortunatley, that didn’t work. Still showing 15%.

I redid all trait lines this way as well.

Try it out, I think it’s just a visual bug and the stealing recharge is actually sped up.

Well, I’m showing 20.75 sec CD for steal currently. Is this right?

Yes, ish. Base is 30s, 15% reduced takes it to 30s*0.85=25.5s, and then Sleight of hand takes it to 25.5s*0.8=20.4s. It doesn’t stack like damage modifiers, so it’s not 15%*20%=38% reduction, and each successive percentage doesn’t use the original cool down value either, so it doesn’t equal 15+20%=35% reduction. The tool tip actually shows 20 3/4 instead of 20 1/2, because for some reason, the 15% reduction takes it to 26s instead of 25.5, resulting in the 20% reduction then taking it down to 20.8s, and the tooltips round to the nearest 1/4, 1/5, and 3/4 second.

Swindler’s Equilibrium (Successfully evading an attack while wielding a sword recharges steal by 1 second.) Reduce the CD even more by evading with sword equipped. ~.^
