Guild Wars 2

I am currently running with the master trait LAST STAND which Activates Balanced Stance when you are dazed, knocked down, launched, pushed back, or stunned. This effect can only trigger once every 90 seconds. Only thing I have yet to see do so, I am still having to activate balanced stance manually. It can be a hassle while jumping in with my hammer while trying to use when needed instead of popping it before hand, just trying to squeeze out all 8’s of the utility.

If not and it turns out that it will not work as such, I will just go back to Dolyak signet.

You don’t need to run Balanced stance with Last stand.

Last stand does what it says on its own.

You don’t need to run Balanced stance with Last stand.

Last stand does what it says on its own.

That is to say, it will negate an incoming CC and give you 8s of Stability on a 90 second cooldown.

It has nothing to do with Balanced Stance, other than the trait description. That is to say, it does not require slotting Balanced Stance nor will it proc the cooldown of a slotted Balanced Stance.

In effect, the visual cue is that you’re getting stability without activating a utility skill for it.
