Guild Wars 2

Today I was playing on my warrior and I realized something. When I play on my thief or ranger hardly anything knocks me back or down. On my warrior however every enemy I fight knocks me down or back. I got knocked down by a cave bat when I had stability activated. Another thing that was bugging me was that the vengeance skill (I think that’s the name) that allows you to get back up when downed only works when the planets are aligned. I downed more times than I can count and it has not let me stay up even once. Is there any chance of having the percent chance of staying up increased upon killing something? I got up and slaughtered at least four bats with my great sword and fell again. This happened many times to the point where I don’t feel like playing that character anymore.

You just have a 20% chance to rally. Can make it 100% though with a trait – which triggers when you kill the enemie which downed you.

I have been knocked back when blocking, also when I’ve had stability. I do believe its just lag and according to the game you activated them a split second too late ( I only find it happens immediately after activating either.)

Sweet Revenge does not work and is a waste of a trait in which Signet Mastery is much more beneficial. In PvP I think it works well, but it’s rare to be downed long enough to Vengeance up, and people are smart enough to just run away and let you die. Honestly I’ve rallied from Vengeance more often since I got rid of Sweet Revenge, go figure.
