Short daze, stuns enemies and deals additional damage when you interrupt them with this skill.

“Mageblade Tether”
Hitting enemies with a burst skill tethers them to you. If they move beyond the range threshold, pull them back to you. Gives might, reveals enemy. Tether holds for 8 seconds.

I agree it does look amazing, its going to be so much fun to hunt mesmers, thieves and anything condi.

I am wondering though, if there is a trait that grants bonus damage for boons removed from yourself, sort of like a reverse Destruction of the Empowered?

Is there is I am wondering if Rune of Lysssa would act as a nice damage buff for a burst?

It would be a condi’s worst nightmare!

Mageblade Tether looks so broken OP. Just think you tether someone, then use greatsword to zoom halfway across the map, and that poor soul is going to be yanked after you the entire way.

Not to mention mageblad tether is probably going to result in people getting stuck in walls literally every match.

Sanity is for the weak minded.

Tether has 12s CD so it will probably connect on every second/third burst. If it proves to be too overpowered either the leash range or cooldown can be increased.

It generally looks like a big, middle finger to Thief and Daredevil.

A better change would be it only pulls once then expires. This is a passive trait, it shouldn’t offer more CC than every other CC on the class put together.

Mageblade Tether is hilarious. Dragging scrub thieves around to get rekt. You want to run but you can’t, daddy’s home and he doesn’t like you watching all that anime and he’s gonna just drag you out to the drive way to express his shame real quick.

I actually assumed that after the pull it breaks. If it doesn’t, then it’s rather hillarious.

The tether has to land the burst first in order to work. It will certainly favor certain types of bursts over others given some ‘easier’ to land. It would be interesting to see who gets tethered if it a burst that hits multiple enemies. Thief will have to pay more attention and ensure they not hit by a burst.

There could be interesting counterplay as well. As in if a DH and tethered with pull drop traps

Well I dont have problems with warriors/bers with my hammer sw/sh build. But I will farm firebrand so hard with it. Especially in 2 weeks when that beta comes. Berserkers will destroy them so easily especially new elite spec with unblockable attackw and that op new 234 combo.

well thats what i am expecting to happen, cause guard surviability if hostile can ignore the only defenses class has… wich isnt hard to bypass aegis/blocks.
team up with a necro boon rip and converting boons lol… firebrand QQ
Just stay out of the fire tome place due the massive fire stacks burst possibility.

Btw check the mantras cast time

I thought i was in the guardian forum for a second there. Anyway, I’m super pumped for spellbreaker. It seems to be a very well rounded duelist build. I liked power zerk and i feel I’m gonna love this. I bet they nerf the power traits in the zerk line to keep it as the condition elite spec

i know…. necros will love it reason i said team up with a necro, guard classes tendto fall back and get outshinned cause they have several ways to be countered… imo they are the easiest class to kill.

unbloclables, boon corrup, bon removal just for start…add how toughness is useless on that class and is low vit…

IIRC the tether will only pull the target once, after that it’ll just keep revealing the target and giving you might stacks.

probably, since it does remove a boon. But it will only remove the boons and not apply them to you, if it does work.

Where I was going is proccing the AoE boon removal from Enchantment Collapse, so each person you interrupt is stripping the boons of the enemies around them.

I dont think so since the current build will still be great for PvE content (with whatever changes come with the core update). What I will be doing is keep my Vipers, then grab some zerker exotics for testing the new elite in PvE and WvW.

Spellbreaker will completely break WvW in its current state. Just the elite will be absolute key in fights. Very interested in how this is going to play out. Seems like a strong pick in both larger and smaller scale.
